MD-11, btw. There is no DC-11. The DC-10 was an earlier jet design, and some were eventually converted to the more modern cockpit of the MD-11 that enabled just two pilots to fly it, changing their designation to MD-10.
Somehow I instinctively knew it was going to be an MD aircraft when my colleague asked me if I'd seen the video. They designed some shitty aircraft did MD.
