Comedian and retired Marine Reserve officer Rob Riggle takes to the skies in this “Top Gun 2 audition tape” skit for popular comedy website Funny Or Die.
In it, Riggle posits that he’s a dead ringer for the supporting actor post beside the famed character Maverick. When he mounts up and begins to practice his lines, the Blue Angels pilot goes full throttle.
Spoiler alert: Riggle lets out some kind of squeal, and then passes out.

I have been in limbo for 6.5 years from an accident here in Vancouver Canada I sing act and model no more though I am ready to shine Bring me on please I need a break Oh ya I’m funny to be around and can laugh along
The ‘squeal’ is not an actual squeal or anything funny for that matter. It’s a technique pilots use to keep their brains oxygenated during high G maneuvers as not to pass out.
Riggle isn’t conditioned for those kind of maneuvers hence the blackout.
