This is a cabin window on a modified B-29 with a dummy in the seat, testing the effects of explosive decompression.

In the youtube comments, someone asked in a comment "did he died?" To which someone else responds "are you [effing] retarded?" :D:D

Reminds me of the story about Concorde's small windows which were said to be sized so a body could NOT pass through them in case of a RD or ED.

If that did happen at the altitude the Concorde flew you'd be dead in ... .5 seconds

Yes, one's head probably is not well suited for -40C (or -40F since that is the only point where Ander's and Daniel's scales meet) as well as the lack of pressure. Oh..and the Mach 2.01 breeze.
