Goglia confirms that his technique ought to work. "Yep. That's proper," he says. "There’s a loophole for that."

The comic undergoes Boeing 737 coaching in Henderson, Nev., and secures a used 737 for the massive act. A couple of days earlier than the flight, Fielder fills out a medical assessment kind as a part of the pre-flight protocol.

"If you happen to lie on this type, it's a felony offense, with a most sentence of 5 years in jail," he says as he lingers on a yes-or-no query that asks if he has "psychological problems of any kind: despair, nervousness, and so on."
