    i started to read the article and thought ‘these are dumb alarmist charges, boys can’t even have hobbies anymore’, and i read this

    The plane crashed into the Los Padres National Forest 35 minutes after take-off. Jacob hiked to the site and recovered the footage. He then uploaded the video entitled “I crashed my airplane” to YouTube on 23 December, which contained a promotion for a wallet company, prosecutors said.

    and now i’m totally on their side

      it’s even worse.

      • he delayed the research of the site by providing wrong information (while he knew perfectly where the crashed plane was… because he walk to it to get the videos footage)
      • payed an helicopter to extract the plane scrape to a secret location (while ntsb was still looking for the crash site)
      • then destroyed the evidence, so the ntsb could not perform any checks

      i could add also that he had a fire extinguisher hide in his pant (to be able to access the footage if the plane was still on fire i presume), the original motor was may be replaced before the crash, the plane door was not properly lock (to facilitate his jump)… ha and yes, he had a jumpsuit (no fitting a normal pilot activity)…

      Well, all of that was badly done. He’s a piece of shit that should never flight again.
