Get the Jesus Nut mug.The critical bolt or nut in a helicopter that holds the main rotor in place. If it fails or detaches mid-flight, the copter comes crashing down very fast and everyone inside goes straight to Jesus!
Co-pilot: Looks like the Jesus nut YEETED mid-flight! You know what's going to happen NOW!
Everyone inside the helicopter: AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA-*goes straight to Jesus*
Everyone inside the helicopter: AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA-*goes straight to Jesus*
