The answer is in the video title - it's a flight simulator video, not a real aircraft!

The importance of competent ground crew mechanics is shown again . A rush job on an engine cowling on a DC-10 ultimately led to the Concorde disaster . In this case the wrong bolts for the windshield was used , inexcusable.

This actually happened. It was just recreated in a flight simulator. Look at the end and you will see real people coming from the plane and where the windshield is missing on the plane.

Sounds and looks like a little kid having too much time, playing on the computer, as all that was clearly created in software (probably PS)!

That is one of the most amazing stories I've ever read/seen. I can't possibly imagine what was going through that poor man's head as he was being battered by the force of air rushing over him and praying that they would not let him go. Never saw this on the news here in the U.S. I'm sure Hollywood will make a movie of it at some point. thanks for sharing
