Everybody knows that a plane is airtight! Every crevice is sealed to keep the cabin pressurized. Because otherwise, none of us would be able to breathe this high up in such thin air. But what about all those movies showing holes in the fuselage ripping passengers right out of the plane in the blink of an eye! So when you flush the toilet, you open that hole, creating an opportunity for the pressure difference to eject the contentsright?
Well, even if you were somehow pulled through that tiny hole, you wouldnt get spit out of the plane. When you flush the toilet on an airliner, the contents dont just get sprayed across the Earth for everyone down below to have to deal with. That would be gross, harmful for people and the planetand illegal! Date: 2022-04-19
