accidents fatal involved people situation
I've been here for 20 years. I have been involved in fatal accidents for 12 or 13 years. I have never been involved in a situation where we had notes. I've never been in a situation where we had 12 people killed in one event, either.

air depends
A lot of it depends on the circumstances and how big you are and how much air you suck.
