Buried Alive Aug 09, 2010

Show notes

"I've done far worse than kill you. I've hurt you. And I wish to go on... hurting you. I shall leave you as you left me, as you left her. Marooned for all eternity, in the center of a dead planet... buried alive. Buried alive." - Khan Noonien Singh As "buried alive" goes, James Kirk had it pretty good - lots of space, food, and oxygen. Today on Caustic Soda we'll take a look at the far more gruesome examples of being... (whispers over the communicator) buried alive.

Caustic Soda's going down in flames with our latest episode - Air Disasters! Special guest Lucas Black joins us all the way from the UK via the magic of the Interwebs (and Skype and our engineer Mike). We look at some of the world's worst aviation disasters, from the Hindenberg to 9/11 to the horrible Sknyliv airshow disaster in Ukraine. We had a few technical difficulties while recording this episode so please excuse the glitches and odd sounds you may hear, as well as some fairly obvious edits.
