There once was a case of a pilot inviting one of his friends in Britain for a little flight with a sports plane. the pilot died of a heart attack MID AIR and his friend, who had no flight experience whatsoever was there and thought: *****
Then he called the tower, but since he was radio operator at a military airbase or something so he knew the protocol and said that the pilot just died and he had no flight experience. (1)
They rushed in a flight teacher in time so they could tell him how to land the plane somehow. He tried a few times but succeeded in the end. When they asked him whether or not he needed anything he said: "yeah, I just need a drink" or something like that. When he finally succeeded in landing without dying, he wanted to learn how to fly and he got his pilot's license now. (2)
