What went through his mind as the doomed plane went down? At TED, he tells his story publicly for the first time. Speaker’s biography: Why you should listen to him: Born in Puerto Rico, Ric Elias came to the United States for college knowing little English, as he writes in his online bio. So what did he do? I adjusted my schedule and took only classes that dealt with numbers my entire first year, he says. Id always been decent at math, and things like calculus and accounting were non-lingual. I was able to buy some time to improve my English skills. His facility with numbers has led to a wide-ranging career in business and finance. Elias is the CEO and co-founder of Red Ventures, a firm that helps large service companies acquire new customers online. He began his career in General Electric Co.s Aerospace Division, then worked at the marketing services company CUC International (later known as Cendant). Prior to founding Red Ventures, Ric served as president of Spark Network Services, a promotion and data company held by Cendant. 事件背景： 全美航空1549号班机 是一班从纽约拉瓜迪亚机场到北卡罗莱纳州的夏洛特，再飞往西雅图的每日航班。该航班在2009年1月15日那天起飞后六分钟在纽约哈德逊河紧急迫降。该航班在起飞后90秒攀升到3200英呎，机组员从无线电报告说他们的空中客车A320因鸟击而让两个引擎都失去动力，机上人员全数生还。 文本： Imagine a big explosion as you climb through 3,000 ft. Imagine a plane full of smoke. Imagine an engine going clack, clack, clack, clack, clack, clack, clack. It sounds scary.想像一个大爆炸，当你在三千多英尺的高空；想像机舱内布满黑烟，想像引擎发出喀啦、喀啦、喀啦、喀啦、喀啦的声响，听起来很可怕。 Well I had a unique seat that day. I was sitting in 1D. I was the only one who can talk
