About this listen
William Rankin was flying an F-8 Crusader jet fighter on July 26th, 1959. During the flight, the engine stopped, and a fire warning light flashed. He was forced to eject and parachute into a cloud, where he got stuck in a thunderstorm. He suffered severe decompression which casued his eyes, ears, nose, and mouth to bleed. William was stuck in the storm for 40 minutes, but he survived the experience.
