Episode notes

Wooden planes + gasoline = fiery death in 1908.

Darrell rants about fat-guy plane seats, then dives into the first fatal plane crashes — from a 1908 army demo to a 1913 Italian fireball that roasted passengers alive for several minutes.

  • 1908: Orville Wright’s passenger dies in crash
  • 1913: Italian dirigible burns mid-air
  • Passengers cooked alive in wooden fuselages

Jason jokes about prairie women on wings. Darrell hates reclining seats and swamp ass. At least planes aren’t made of kindling anymore.
