Well, I'm sure they'd prefer being upset over being dead... although the likelihood of successfully rolling over and flying a negative-g recovery in a transport airplane seem dubious at best. Transport category airplanes are only certified to -1G so an inverted pullout would definitely exceed those limits.
See Boeing 707 barrel roll by Tex JohnSton.
I believe every teenage flight enthusiast has dreamed of doing this maneuver.
Wasn't this a story element in the movie Flight (2012) taken from Alaskan 261?
