At last his sail-broad vans
He spread for flight, and, in the surging smoke
Uplifted, spurns the ground; thence many a league,
As in a cloudy chair, ascending rides
Audacious; but, that seat soon failing, meets
A vast vacuity. All unawares,
Fluttering his pennons vain, plumb-down he drops
Ten thousand fathom deep, and to this hour
Down had been falling, had not, by ill chance,
The strong rebuff of some tumultuous cloud,
Instinct with fire and nitre, hurried him

As many miles aloft.
—John Milton, Paradise Lost

Bill: Dude, this is a totally deep hole.
Ted: Yeah... now what?
Bill: I don't know.

Both: *long pause*...AAAAAAHHHHHHH!!!!
—Bill and Teds Bogus Journey

Mad Scientist: Hey, watch it!

Juni: Sorry, but we've been falling for four hours...
—Spy Kids II
