This is how fighter pilots pass snacks through the cockpit

When you're piloting a fighter jet travelling at supersonic speeds, the last thing you want to think about is handing your navigator a snack.

So why not let physics do the work for you?

In the video posted to YouTube on Tuesday, a pilot and his navigator demonstrated just how easy it is to pass a Snickers bar through the cockpit when travelling at speeds exceeding Mach 2.

Instead of fumbling around behind him while the navigator reaches forward, the pilot simply lets the chocolate bar loose in the air, and the G-forces send it backwards through the small cabin.

The Snickers bar bounces back through the cockpit into the navigator's hand, allowing the pilot to keep his mind on flying the multi-million dollar plane.
