[ WP ] You 're on a plane , and it 's going down .

**Have you ever felt anxiety-induced slow-motion? ** 
 
 The technical term is `` time dilation'' which I've always enjoyed. 
 
 I had always been a frugal young man, but one thing I've always splurged on is the next best set of headphones. 
 
 I enjoyed `` Piano Concerto No. 12 in A Major'' whilst observing the utter chaos surrounding me. 
 
 I've always been nervous on planes. Ever since I was a child I'd experienced a terrible phobia of plane crashes. 
 
 You are statistically more likely to be hit by lightning than death by plane crash, but the thought frightened me nonetheless. 
 
 8/10 times that I fly, I ingest 2 Vicodin and order a Balvanie Double Wood neat. It's the only way I can fly without having a panic attack. Today's trip was one of those 8. 
 
 A body flew by me, but due to the dilation, it was more of a float. Beautiful in its agony, and peaceful in its suspended state. 
 
 I could n't hear anyone with my headphones, but I could tell by my girlfriend's expression that she was screaming. 
 
 It was the end, and I was okay with that for the moment.
