From another forum.

An air traffic control tower suddenly lost communication with a small twin
engine aircraft.

A moment later the tower land-line rang and was answered by one of the
employees.

The passenger riding with the pilot who lost communications was on a
cellular phone and yelling," Mayday! Mayday! Mayday!" The pilot just had an
instant and fatal heart attack. I grabbed his cell phone out of his pocket
because he had told me before we took off he had the tower on his speed dial
memory. I am flying upside down at 18,000 feet and travelling at 180
mph.....Mayday, mayday!!"

The tower had put him on speaker phone immediately. "Calm down, we
acknowledge you and we'll guide you down after a few questions.
The first thing is not to panic, remain calm!
He began his series of questions:

Tower: "How do you know you are travelling at 18,000 feet?"
Aircraft: "I can see that it reads 18,000 feet on the Altimeter dial in
front of me."
Tower: "Okay, that's good, remain calm. How do you know you're travelling at
180 mph?"
Aircraft: "I can see that it reads 180 mph on the Airspeed dial in front of
me."
Tower: "Okay, this is great so far, but it's heavily overcast, so how do you
know you're flying upside down?"
Aircraft: "The sh-- in my pants is running out of my shirt collar."
