The Joe Rogan experience. People are so nuts with attention. Do you hear about
that one guy that
crashed his plane on purpose for YouTube views?
Yes. Like he jumped out of the plane. Height. Like, let it fucking crash.
For like, for views. For views.
I mean, I guess when you're doing the math and you think I'm like- They're
deliberately crashing plane to get YouTube views. So like
This guy just jumped out of a fucking plane.
So like, who knows whose kid that fucking plane is gonna slam into. Yeah.
Imagine you're hiking with your family. This is amazing.
Beautiful mountains. I love you so much. And you get hit in the face by a plane.
By a plane that was like flown by a YouTube influencer. Why would, I mean, you
just ruin that plane too.
Well, I think the calculation is he knows the number of views he's gonna get on
YouTube will generate more money than the plane was worth.
So there's a profit there. Like, whatever he paid for the plane is probably
less than what he'll make from YouTube from that video.
And he got video footage of the plane crash.
So he had a camera on the plane.
It is so crazy. We could do this now that we can convert our lives into money.
It's so crazy. You could like just film yourself doing shit and then like maybe
make
so much money off of like just stuff that, you know, normal stuff.
So was this guy trying to say that he
the plane crash
Happened with him in it. Was he trying to like fake that?
And they did a hike out. Is that what he's what he's doing or did he like let
people know
That he jumped out of the plane. All right here and film that said it was an
accident that actually happened in 2021
Oh, and they just found out about the whole investigation happened
It's cool, man. There's there's videos of pilots
watching the video and like making commentary on why it's suspicious because
like apparently you look at the plane and
There's stuff that should be in a plane. It's not in a plane like expensive
stuff
Yeah, he said it just like that he was acting like the engine went out and he
had to bail
But he also then went and knew where it crashed and when snuck back in and
pulled the wreckage out before like the FA could go and investigate
He pulled the wreckage out?
Yeah
He says they told him to preserve the wreckage. So he waited two days to report
the crash. I
Think he had already gone tow it out of there something like that, huh?
More than two weeks after the crash he had a friend and flew a helicopter to
the crash site and airlifted the wreckage to
Rancho
Sisquac in Santa Barbara County where it was loaded onto a trailer attached to
Jacob's pickup truck
Isn't that wild? Yeah, he unloaded it in a hangar drove the wreckage to an
airport
He then cut up and destroyed the airplane wreckage and over the course of a few
days deposited the attached parts of the wrecked airplane into trash bins in
the airport and elsewhere
Wow
Three million views off of that
Yeah, it's super normal to be just chopping an airport an airplane up and
Putting in trash bins all over the airport think of like your inner dialogue is
you're depositing your your plane wreckage
What would you do to a body?
That sounds like it sounds like he's doing to a body. Yeah
Yeah, he was he was just trying to like it like
like it's such a
complex
Way to get YouTube views like it. Yeah, it worked though. It worked, but now he's
gonna go to jail
Yeah, for maybe a long time. Like yeah, like I think so
How many years he faces?
Holy shit
20 years for a stupid YouTube star in a penalty of up to
$1,644 for each day. He did not return
Something I mean, we do need strict penalties for sure for to keep people from
just just like dropping planes out of the sky on us
Yeah, yeah, you got to set an example for a guy like that and that guy could
Dude, I mean who knows where that plane was what happens if that plane catches
wind?
That's so wild flies into someone's house and then the guy's a mass murderer
when they were making YouTube in the early days
I don't think they ever thought that like there would be plane crashes because
of their technology
I don't think they ever thought like this thing is going to like
Influence right society and just destroy lives
People are gonna ruin their lives for for views on this thing
Imagine that guy had a plot out where the plane was gonna crash to because he
had to be jumping high enough where you can jump
I don't know what that threshold is
But you got to be pretty high up there where you can jump and then film
yourself before you even pull the parachute, right?
So he's filming himself. Yeah, I mean it was a plan like he thought about that
fucking plane is way up there way up and that
That's suckers. How long do you think he flies for it if you really do you've
That's a he could have killed people easily a percent
I mean the assumption is no one's gonna be out there, but I mean that's a huge
assumption such a huge assumption
You could hit another plane you could do there's a lot of things that can
happen
Yeah
You're way up there and you're bailing out while it's way up there
So it has to be up there enough where you could jump out how high was it when
he jumped out does it say I'm looking for more details
You said he was trying to get a sponsorship deal
With who better help?
Who is the sponsorship with?
I can almost figure it out so I'll just let people look that up you can kind of
guess it's
Doesn't say the name of it though, but
What do you mean you can kind of guess?
It says it's a wallet company. Oh, oh god
Jesus Christ, he's trying to get a sponsorship
It's I mean this era of capitalism is so bizarre like so bizarre the way people
are
Manipulating the system or just the what they're doing. Wow. Just yeah, that's
what I love regardless of how also you have to like ethics aside
Whoa, yeah, that is badass like pull away the ethics. Just look at like purely
What you not only did you like fly your plane in the sky jump out of it
But yeah, he represented the United States and snowboard in the 2014 winter olympics
He's an olympian
And then he like put himself in the worst situation and managed to hike out and
then
Like monetize it
Dispose of the plane. He has a friend with a helicopter. He was like, yeah,
sure. I'll get your wreckage
Fuck man, that's like pull the ethics out and it's like what a fascinating
Rotten dude, right?
Right like yeah, right like whoa, he's got a friend with a helicopter that
pulled plane wreckage out of the mountains
He's got like those are that's that's how you know you got a friend
Yeah, well, you pay him a lot right because like
Was what he was doing illegal?
Like yeah, you do there's probably some rules like if you have to report a
plane crash
You can't just like take the wreckage. I imagine there's enough
Like ways you could talk your way out of that one. Really?
Yeah, I don't know. He told me you reported it. Yeah, I don't know. Yeah, right
that i'm sure
Yeah, I mean, I don't know look. I don't know. I'm just out here working flying
my helicopter around
I don't know what's going on. Just picking up a broken plane. I am but a
helicopter pilot. Yeah
Yeah, I I imagine the helicopter pilot is like probably sweating a little bit,
but he's probably okay
Right like because they're gonna focus on the yeah maniac who flew his plane
into a mountainside for youtube views
What a world what a world
