Here's something funny. Go to the Star Wars Wiki and search it for "Jek Tono Porkins". It's longer than most of the main characters' pages. He's just a redshirt who appears for 7 seconds in the WHOLE film. LOL
That's brutal he's still screaming for a few seconds even after the x wing blows up. According to the Star Wars card game card, When the Rebels get ready for the battle, the X-wing assigned to Porkins missed its final inspection of computer and flight control systems.
In the original, this character's name was Horkins. Lucas, in his infinite, infantile wisdom, redubbed the man's name as Porkins. Funny guy huh? What a douche.
Always wondered, what part of the ship ejects? Because the cockpit merely looks like a canopy attached to the fuselage. Or does the loose-suited barefaced pilot get sent into the airless vacuum of space?
Almost bothers me as much as the Mynock scene on the asteroid in The Empire Strikes Back. They got the breathe-masks, but no pressurized suits.
The sound-effects in outer space we'll concede -- that's too cool to give up.
Cue enraged fanboys telling me "it's just a sci-fi movie you asshole."
@bruiser700 I think the guy might be saying the pilot's name "Jek", not eject. I could be wrong though. And why would anyone call you an asshole? I prefer .."Dickhead". (Just kidding).
Someone's read the X-Wing series, lol. Supposedly, he was actually a very good fighter pilot despite the fact he kinda went out like a punk in the movie.
How would ejecting have helped. Wouldn't he have suffocated in space?

Death star was destroyed because porkin's body got clogged in the air vent and exploded.
The rebel PR decided to go with the jedi-firing-blind-without-targeting computer story instead

@Scioneer There's also speculation he took some sort of damage to the X-wing. Nothing that can be confirmed, but it's note worthy.
