Actually, I think you can see he leads with his knee. It's been a bit since I've seen the video, though.

He definitely leads with his knee, and it's surprisingly easy to break glass that way. Happened to me once when I was drunk in a bar, barely felt it. I just stood there looking at it wondering how that happened while one of the bouncers was livid thinking I kicked the glass in on purpose and the other was holding him back laughing his rear end off saying he'd never seen glass shatter that easily.

It's technically not unsafe because that bar stops the mechanism, but you're still relying on the mechanism to work and you not to lose your grip or balance to keep you from turning into ground long pork. Just get a stick.

How does that mechanism work? Like, when you let go of the bar it stops? Because I can totally see someone panicking and keeping hold of the bar, or trying to pull themselves out with it... you know, until it's too late.

Technically not unsafe my rear end.

If it's so easy then why dont they just put a parachute on the fucken plane? Do the pilots really need to die in this scenario?

To be fair, a cabin without fuel, engines, luggage etc is a whole deal lighter than a whole plane, and who's to say the pilots can't get into the cabin given enough time or use their own parachutes?
