A flight from Dubai to Israel made an emergency landing after an attempt by one of the pilots to get control of the aircraft and crash it. A pilot stabbed another pilot, then apparently tried to crash the aircraft. The plane abruptly dropped down thousands of feet. It also prompted Israel to scramble warplanes because it raised concerns about a possible hijacking of the plane.

Yeah, that was Fox Chicago, the hijacked flight, which made an emergency landing in Saudi Arabia. Good afternoon, I'm Drew Mariani. What a bizarre story that is, right? You hear people on the flights going kind of wacky, kind of nuts, but whoever thought of a co-pilot stabbing a pilot, there was blood everywhere. And I still don't have all the details on, you know, how I guess other crew members were able to get into the cockpit. What went down? Here's the scene, just very quickly, if you haven't heard this story yet, I'm sure you'll see more of it probably on your evening news. But terror broke out in the skies of Saudi Arabia this morning. There was a flight from Dubai. It was flight 767 It was on route from Dubai. It was going to Israel. It was going to Tel Aviv. And most of the passengers there were Israelis. And suddenly, the co-pilot, he's from Omar, he pulled a knife out. And then he started to stab the pilot. The plane descended, just began to plummet. They say 17,000 feet. It took a nosedive. What they think happened is he might have fell in the yoke of the plane, right? And the thing went down. It dropped 17,000 feet in about two minutes. People were screaming. You could just imagine the chaos on the craft. Imagine being strapped to your own seat. You don't know what's going on. And all of a sudden, the plane has taken a nosedive. You probably figure you've got minutes to live. It was sheer terror that filled that cabin.

And it was clear that the co-pilot intended to fly the jet into the ground and kill everybody on board. That's what they believe was the whole mindset behind this. But fortunately, there were apparently two other pilots on board. A group of passengers were able to break the cockpit door and wrestle the co-pilot out of a seat and subdue him, and then two other pilots were able to get the plane steady. What a blessing that is. How often do you have guys that can fly a 767 and land it? I mean, it's pretty crazy.

My other question is, how the heck do you get in the cockpit? These guys said they broke down the doors. Is it that easy? That stuff looks pretty fortified to me. They shouldn't have locked that thing. I'm thinking, nobody's getting in. And you would think if it was locked, the stewardess can't open it. At least I don't think they can. Right? And it's probably imminent death. But thank god they were able to breach the door, and these other pilots flew the plane to an airport in Saudi Arabia where officials arrested the co-pilot. They treated the pilot. They were both in the hospital.

The plane then, it flew to Tel Aviv.

Unfortunately, no passengers or other crew members were injured in the incident, but boy, it was amazing. I saw some images from the flight, and a couple of passengers had blood all over them.

What a terror. I say it all the time. It's kind of the one mantra that you hear me say a lot, you know? You don't know the day or the hour. You get on that flight, everything seems fine. Takeoff is fine. You're airborne. You're going to be touching down before you know it, and all of a sudden, you're playing plummets. We do not know the day or the hour, right? Do not know the day or the hour. Yesterday, the president signed an executive order that renames something else. He loves to rename this. We could talk about this. I like to get your take on it. I have a better name than Donald Trump's name. What am I talking about? Well, the president doesn't like the term artificial intelligence. He doesn't like the word artificial. So he wants to rebrand artificial intelligence, AI, into SI.

He wants it called super intelligence. And, you know, I guess, I don't know, I don't get why we need to rename it, but he has executive orders that require all federal documents now to refer to it as super intelligence. And the word is, super is the best word of all, he says. It's the simplest. What are your thoughts on that? I have a perfect name for AI. If you want to get rid of the word artificial, I think I already shared it with Nick. Nick, what do you think of this change? What are your thoughts on going from artificial intelligence to super intelligence? People are already kind of accustomed to it, but I guess you can rename things. We changed UFOs to UAPs, and it's been kind of common.
