Meters are the metric system. Maybe you should watch more BBC......

@Exagerative I agree. 400 mph flowing past the aircraft causes a suction effect (see venturi effect) so pressurized air escaping plus the sucking effect of air flowing past the aircraft adds up. Static pressurized air inside a parked aircraft is only half the picture. I believe Mythbuster's test methods lacks enough science to draw their "Busted" conclusion.

I don't understand metres...y'all need to learn the metric system or stick to the BBC...ass...

I don't understand feet, america should use metrs. What an idiot measuring

In the test, the bomb went off in high air pressure, compared to relatively normal air pressure that would be in a real plane. But more oxygen = bigger blast, or not? This would mean that if the same bomb went off under normal conditions in high altitude, the smaller blast would have lower impact on the plane cabin than in the test.... or? Anyone cares to explain?

@Exagerative You mean RUPTURE, not rapture. The Rapture is something entirely different!

Somehow I wouldn't trust these guys' verdict.
These guys have THE best jobs!

If the aircraft was moving at 400mph a small hole would wrip it apart. as its on the ground the air can move at its own free will out of the hole, in the air the air brushes past 400mph moving air so its pulled out faster and it will probably extend the whole more and more.
