The Last Word with Matt Cooper
A French pensioner was ejected from a fighter jet at 2,500 feet when a retirement present went wrong, according to a report by French aviation investigators. The 64-year-old man was given a surprise flight in a £70 million fighter jet for his retirement, but was flung out of the plane when he grabbed the ejector seat handle to "steady himself". He landed in a field using his parachute and suffered minor injuries. The incident was captured on a Go-Pro which had been attached to the man's helmet by his colleagues. Martin Beanz Warde and Laura Byrne joined us for The Week Trending to talk about this and some of the other stories trending this week.
