Weiner Dog in Plane Starts Floating Unexpectedly - He's Lucky the Windows were Closed (23 secs)

How it happened: when a Plane takes a series of serious dives and gains, it is able to produce a 'micro-gravity' situation. This allows any contents not strapped down to seeminly float for a short amount of time. This is relevant if you watch the background outside the plane's rear Window. Thought that'd be good to mention. Cute dog too.

Unexpectedly my foot.

Things don't just float in a plane; it takes significant forward pressure on the yoke to generate a zero G environment on a light plane (which is what they're in). I guarantee you this was done on purpose.

It is funny/cute, though.

That dog was falling to Earth as fast as if you'd have kicked him out of the plane. Lucky canine, how many do you know that get to experience 0g for that long? The dog seemed like he would adapt to the environment.

NASA has a couple of huge tall tubes they pull a vacuuum on and then drop things in to create microgravity environments for testing. 18 feet across and 330 feet tall vacuum jars! They get microgravity for 5 seconds.
