ALAN: They're training us
on this machine called the MASTIF that's supposed to make you feel
like you're tumbling in space. You can cut it. ALAN: Compared to what we do,
it's a carnival ride. The average fatality rate
of a Navy test pilot is 23 percent. But any pilot you're talking to
is still alive. Which means he isn't average. I mean, that's about the shape of it.

if it don't. Right? DEE: They're ready for you, Al
