     There was an incident many years ago where an airliner on short approach 
to Tokyo had such an event.  The captain had a heart attack and slumped forward 
on the yoke.  The flight engineer grabbed him by the neck and pulled him back 
while the copilot pulled back to keep the nose up.  Try that in a simulator 
some day.
