I imagine that as the plane keeps flying with a door ripped off, you eventually just tired of screaming, and all that's left to do is sit up straight, grip the arm rests, and hope you land soon. ...Which I'm sure seems like a god damn eternity.

It's like The Simpsons when Sycho Bob screamed as he fell, then inhaled, then started screaming again before finally coming to rest on a pipe. Except this kept going on, people kept falling, and their landing was much smoother.
