OK, I have to say, I lost an engine in my aircraft. I realized I had lost all engine power. I made no effort to restart the engine. I to, exited my aircraft within 15 seconds. However I did not have extinguishers attached to my legs. I did not have a selfie stick to take with me. I did however make a very brief radio call. In mitigation; My engine out occurred at approx. 200ft over the runway... I flew the aircraft to the ground and used the fence at the end of the runway to dissipate energy, broke through the fence and impacted the road, carried over the road into another fence. ... yes and still managed to exit the aircraft within 15 seconds after the loss of power! And I have NEVER worn a parachute! I had 4.1 hours on type and 108 total hours in microlights (light sport)! I thank my instructors for their excellent training!
Also, 2 pilots demonstrated by gliding their own similar airplanes that he could have glided to 2 different airports. One with almost 3 miles to spare, and another with 2 miles to spare. On top of that there were over dozen sandbars on the riverbed below that he could have landed. He easily could have landed that plane on all of them. He's one sick individual. There are several state and federal laws he violated that are felonies. The FAA can revoke his license which I'm sure they will but otherwise the FAA have no teeth. The justice department, National Park Service, and California law enforcement divisions can charge him under 11 different statues. I hope they do. He could have easily killed someone on the ground or started a forest fire that could kill dozens of folks as previous wildfires have already done this past year. That fact that he had 2 clearly visible fire extinguishers strapped to his calves under his pants are proof of his planned misdeed.
There are also several dirt roads below him. They look like they could be creeks but if you look on a map, they are actually roads. Lots of safe places to land in that area... spoilt for choice in fact! That aircraft can fly as slow as about 35 knotts. The list just keeps growing. Strange too, that an experienced skydiver and pilot would be terrified while in an aircraft that's at 9,000ft, fully controllable and while wearing a parachute, something no other pilot would have. His first option would be to try restart the engine, The second would be to choose a place to land... preferably an airport but really not necessary as there are plenty of locations in the area where he was. And finally, should a wing drop off (why the hell would it but lets just imagine) he has a skydiving parachute AND a reserve. Yet he was terrified? Yeah, right!
This is one of my favorite summary videos. And the first which has pointed out that it’s suspicious that he has a shot from well above the plane. I appreciated when you said “I don’t want to see the crash” and for cutting it out. Sad indeed. Cheers
I just suddenly realized that the water he's drinking is in someone's backyard because you can just barely see the slant of the house's roof over his right shoulder! Holy shit, I never saw that before! I was really hoping he'd get sick from drinking out of a stagnant pond but that's probably a chlorinated water feature at someone's house.
@@bepowerification He's definitely faking it, he barely takes enough to wet his tongue yet makes a big swallowing sound as if he's chugging out of a bottle.
under his jacket appears to be water bottles. one of them also appears to have burst when he landed as he has water seeping through his jacket when he first gets up.
I can perceive your irritation about the dog incident and I must say that it is in alignment with what I feel. Not to mention the anger for having crashed that very nice classic plane :(
MR jACOB HAS ACHEIVED WHAT HE WANTED HE IS NOW SORT OF FAMOUSE ON THIS RUclips THING AND ALL THESE REVIEWS HELP HIM ON HIS WAY I PERSONALY HOPE THE TWATT GOES TO JAIL IF HE IS PROVEN TO HAVE DONE THIS ON PURPOSE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
"It's very sad..." Yes, it is. Always bring a couple of fire extinguishers and auxiliary set lighting when jumping from a plane. Also, always open the door before staging an engine failure, because reasons...
Animal cruelty is where a lot of them start. Although I haven't seen any evidence of him actually striking the dog his boasting about it is more than enough to worry me. Why would you boast about such a thing regardless of whether it is true or not?
May I add: He doesn't drink that stream water, he just touches his lips to it. Which is something, what with it being still water and cows all around, that you certainly wouldn't want to drink. If he had drunk it he would have certainly gotten giardia and I'm pretty sure that, as dumb as he is, he at least would have known that.
A good overview. It’s not just that there are two or three questionable items, but scores. I can imagine a factual incident in which a few occurrences might seem inexplicable or unlikely, but practically no part of this chain of events seems plausible or rings true. I hate that a classic plane was destroyed, even if it was in poor condition. He’s fortunate there was no fire, despite his leg-mounted extinguishers. The account of him hitting the dog was difficult to hear. Finally I’m convinced by your English accent, because everything sounds more authoritative when spoken by the British. My GPS is British and I tern when it tells me, even if I think it’s wrong.😹
I doubt the story about his dog is even true tbh, hes a perpetual liar. I had come across the guys channel a while back, as I often watch videos from Travis Pastrana doing stunts etc. And this guy appeared on one of them, he was also featured on a documentary about injuries of stunts going wrong and what not. And as I was watching some of the videos on his channel, I instinctively noted this guy as a liar, a drama queen and a bit of a narcissist. Over exaggerating his stories He spends 30-60 minutes telling stories that can be said in less than 5 minutes, often fake crying and pittying himself along the way. Even though its extremely apparent that he's the one who gets himself into these situations in the first place
Vampy, did you see the fake crying in the one about his dog? It was the worst acting you will ever see anywhere. He will never make it in Hollywood... 🤣
The funniest thing I found about all this was that the plane he was flying was a taildragger, a landing gear design that is perfect for rough-field landings, the sort of landing gear used by all bush planes. A tricycle landing gear, (one that has 3 wheels fairly close together with one leading wheel,) has some difficulty in rough field landing. But a taildragger with about a 40 mph stall speed is the perfect plane for a safe landing in this emergency. In the hands of even a modestly experienced pilot they probably wouldn't even consider it much of an emergency.
Not alone in that. I haven't seen a single video defending it yet. There are a few comments that seem to but they are clearly ignorant about anything to do with aviation.
@@ProfMoose i mean a production. Staged, scripted, filmed at different times and even different locations. Possibly with help such as for the above shot of the plane ( drone or paramotor ) possibly more than one jump involved, possibly shot over several days.....that kind of production.
@@vlnow I have seen that suggested in the comment although not a lot. One even suggested it was done with FAA approval. Having looked at it closely it does have a certain feel about it that says things we probably shouldn't talk about what with the FAA et al investigating. I still feel for the plane.
@@ProfMoose maybe the plane is still okay. Not entirely impossible that 2 planes were used here. One to fly and one to be a ready made wreck waiting below. Not likely i know, but also not impossible.
Apparently there was footage of the GoPro that was looking forward. It was the one he was holding in his hand next to the yoke of the plane and when he jumped. You can see the short selfie stick underneath the camera when it’s mounted behind him looking forward, bent exactly the same way it was when he was holding it on the way out of the plane. Also the plane shot from above looks a lot like a drone shot, the way the camera is stabilised and panning. It doesn’t look at all like a GoPro clip. Did he also have a filming crew on the ground? The two fire extinguishers that were strapped on his legs would be just as useful in case of a wild fire caused by his plane crashing, as a sneezing to put out the fire on a fireplace. Obviously that’s all speculative but given the guy’s history I can see why so many people are questioning him.
The night drinking scene is most likely shoot on his mobil phone. So nothing weird about the lightning there. Except that in a real life treat situation, it would be pretty wired to film that. And even more weird to waste battery power that way.
Basically we're being asked to believe that this (dog-puncing), train-hopping, skydiving, daredevil, ... completely Freaks Out !! when the engine stops. Ridiculous 🙄 He's in absolutely no immediate danger. He has plenty of time to do (whatever). -And he IS a trained pilot. He has been through all this in flight school. I happen to Know! that from personal experience. On the other hand, "if"... this was all planned, it makes perfect sense. My only real question is... how many people were involved 🤔 🇮🇸
very strange indeed: he's got all sorts of cameras going, but we don't ever see a view of the dashboard. that would have made great footage, if the incident was real.
Yeah the dog video was horrific... Such bad acting, fake crying, and animal abuse on top of it. A truly disturbed individual looking for relevance and clicks....
One of many things that doesn’t make sense to me, he has great dash cam videos holding the ashes, giving thumbs up. When engine stops the only inside camera view is a close up of his mid body, no dash cam, just a jacket view. Is this from the dash cam or the selfie stick cam which was mounted behind him early in the flight. Where is the rest of the video? Why didn’t he use the dash cam to record panic? There are so many loose ends.
This plane, at one point, HAD a radio, as evidenced by the antenna which is clearly visible in his video. And why wear a headset if you have no radio? I'd probably be wearing earplugs instead if it were me.
@@wintermute740 That's a bungee cord holding the cowling because the swapped engine fits differently, the aircraft isn't equipped with an electrical system to power a radio.
There's so much more in this than I've seen in the other videos. So much that it's hard to know where to start and I already had about 20 points that didn't add up. Watch him pretending to drink water from the creek. No water goes into his mouth at all, he just touches the water with his lips... several times. Just as striking for me was the part you pointed out where his head wounds have miraculously disappeared. Also, you're the first commenter I've seen that's questioned where the shot from above the aircraft came from. While he was a few thousand feet below it and dropping at about 120mph, someone was filming the plane from a few hundred feet above it. My guess is he had a drone with him (or one of his helpers did - he didn't do this alone). I hope they throw the book at him and get those who worked with him on this.
It looks like he is merely barely touching the water with his lips. If he was so thirsty from his "ordeal" wouldn't he really slurp up that water? Of course everyone knows not to drink ground water whether stream or pond. Hamming it up eh? I wonder if maybe this part was shot ahead of the incident? Perhaps as an explanation to the question as ProfMoose pointed out of the wound discrepancy?
The wreckage area looked like it was pre trampled before he even arrived at the site , he also shoved his friends so called "ashes" which is questionable in a used sandwich bag, that's the kinda guy he is no more needs to be said.
It would’ve been amazing if the engine restarted itself once the prop started spinning agian. Obviously he wouldn’t have included that in the video if it did restart but whatever
It takes 6 seconds or so to reach terminal velocity, Plenty of videos of aircraft hitting the ground with pilot under chute, Also of parachutist (not skydiver) filming plane landing.
@@ProfMoose You are correct, but, he doesn't seem like the Mechanic "type." Are sales of aircraft engines tracked? He must have done it at some small airport.
He didn't punch or elbow his dog, much like this story, that one was made up as well, so he took it to another level to actually crash this plane in hopes this story would garner much more views than the made up story of almost crashing his plane due to his dog's interference. 🤔

Like a good responsible citizen he took it upon himself at great expense to clean up his own mess and remains mortified to this day that the planned restoration project on this little classic aircraft could not take place by his engineer friends up in mammoth who he posted the Tech logs too before the crash. I know some of you suspect that this was a STUNT for youtube hits 1,504,413 views to date. Having reviewed the evidence I can conclude it is unlikely to end in a prosecution unless he confesses to it, and he really would be an idiot to confess to that. At worst he will be told off for disposing of the wreck and losing the tech logs.
What a beauty of a vintage plane lost

No, its not. The shot from above the plane as it flew on its own has been up in many videos for months.

No wonder he keeps looking down at the ground, he's looking for the cohort operating the drone on the ground.

My only real question is... how many people were involved 🤔
🇮🇸
In part of the original video in which his shadow is being filmed, his shadow appears to be drinking from a bottle.
9:45 that was filmed from a drone 100%. So how was there a drone already in the perfect spot to record the plane? And who was controlling the drone?
That's who he keeps looking down to see.

The most probable cause for the headset is for him to look professional. He is a dumb narcissist, that explains some things.
What looks like an antenna on top of the cowl in front of the windshield is a rudimentary fuel bobber gauge.

The plane has a radio antenna, no idea about the radio itself.
Planes automatically correct themselves and glide. They don't vertically dive.

Well someone pointed out he was carrying a handgun. So, as a start he might have violated California's unconstitutional gun laws.
It would’ve been amazing if the engine restarted itself once the prop started spinning agian. Obviously he wouldn’t have included that in the video if it did restart but whatever
He probably planned it so the engine runs out of fuel. So that wouldnt happen.
It takes 6 seconds or so to reach terminal velocity,
Plenty of videos of aircraft hitting the ground with pilot under chute,

There's got to be a Mechanic somewhere that knows something about the engine swap.
