What were Rodney's dying words?

Hey guys,

To start off I only watched this film as Tony Curran was in it and I thought he was great as Alex Rodney. I'm glad that he had quite a lot of screen time as I've noticed in American feature films he's starred in he gets killed off, or is simply a minor character, well minus Shuttle ETC. It kinda pissed me off when he died as he was the only competent actor in my opinion apart from Hugh Laurie really, everyone else kinda overplayed their role. But what's been bugging me is what he whispered to Quaid. It may have been said in the film but I can't remember. Oh and I love the fact they used Angel by Massive Attack in the nomad scene, really fitting.

BEEP BEEP RICHIE!

"Don't crash."

You better watch out. There may be dogs about.

I imagined when I watched this dud of a film that he said "Use me for food."

Dennis Quaid walked off with a serious look on his face. Much too serious for just being told "Don't crash."

I also wondered if the dead guy who was sucked out of the plane and used for nomad target practice would have (in a real situation) been consumable?

Of course, I was thinking about the Donner Party disaster and the plane crash in the Andes mountains which both resulted in cannibalism.

I'll stick to my vegetables and peaches if all the same.

"Why did it take you so long to drag me back to camp"?

It was night when he was shot and broad daylight when they got him back to camp.
