That reminds me of a story from years ago:

727 Captain tells the S/O, "When we're cleared for takeoff, I want you to raise your desk lid up and hold it until I rotate the plane, then drop it. Don't say a word."

S/O asks, "Why?"

Captain: "If we crash, it'll take 'em forever to figure out what that noise was."
