Another pilot witnesses it. That pilot happens to be flying a bunch of skydivers. They offer to jump to assist, are given permission. The skydivers happen to be EMTs.

Jason Herbert @herberthistory.bsky.social · 21/09/2026That Scott doesn't become world famous suggests that werewolves were known of but hyper rare and maybe known only to folklore. Kinda like Jedi at the start of A New Hope. People had heard of them but had simply stopped believing. #HATM 0120
Jason Herbert @herberthistory.bsky.social · 21/09/2026The house where Scott and Boof stop outside to talk about going to the dance is the same house that George McFly lives in in Back To The Future (1985). #HATM 1140
Jason Herbert @herberthistory.bsky.social · 21/09/2026Co-screenwriters Jeph Loeb and Matthew Weisman interviewed several directors for the movie.
