AirAsia Flight Drops 24,000 Feet After Depressurization

Air travel is the safest way to travel by a long shot, but sometimes it can get a little scary. An AirAsia flight lost pressurization and the oxygen masks came down during a flight from Australia to Bali. The passengers panicked and looked for assurance from the crew,  but their faces and actions were not very helpful. In the end the plane decended 24,000 feet in 9 minutes to the 10,000 foot altitude, which is what airplanes are pressurized at and the oxygen level is nominal enough to not need the masks. Take a look at this video from inside the plane. (Thumbnail Credit: Getty Images)
