Why is everyone so butt mad that this guy crashed his plane into the middle of the mountains of nowhere?
>20 years in jail for crashing a plane into some mountains in the middle of fucking nowhere
Even for America this is new levels of fat
Why is everyone so butt mad that this guy crashed his plane into the middle of the mountains of nowhere?
Didn’t have a crashing loiscence
I laughed very hard at reading that. Thank you.
Because Americans are bunch of liberal homosexuals in need of righteous punishment.
what if it had hit someone or started a fire
>what if it had hit someone or started a fire
Bastard, made me spit out my beer.
>in the middle of nowhere
Noooo not the lizzards or geckos and shit
>ask me how i know you're not white
it's called camping
Dude look at the surroundings
He crashed in the middle of fucking nowhere
No one is camping there retard
>looks empty, who cares
it's not like he made sure
>it's not like he made sure
So? Why is that worth twenty years? What are the damages?
The punishment does not fit the "crime." Nobody was harmed; no private property was damaged or destroyed except his own; he's being charged with obstructing a federal investigation. Why? Because he cleaned up the wreckage he caused.
There was no crime that required a federal investigation in the first place. It's a process crime and twenty years is absurd given the circumstances.
Are you unable to process a hypothetical? LOL because there's a lot of research on this board about certain people who can't understand things that could happen but haven't.

>shoots gun 2 inches above peoples heads in public
>wtf I didnt actually hit anyone why am I being arrested?
More like
>Shooting a gun in an empty field with nobody around for miles
>Gets arrested
If it was the risk of danger to life or property, the charges would be reckless endangerment or something similar. But they're not; he's being charged with obstructing a federal investigation. But if there was no crime to investigate, how could it be obstructed in the first place?
He was being investigated by the FAA for violating FAA regulations, namely flying an aircraft in a reckless manner. He then obstructed their investigation which brought on charges of obstruction.
>If it was the risk of danger to life or property
He purposefully crashed a airplane in a national forest during fire season. Los Padres are one of the worst places in california for wildfires. the crash could have caused a wildfire which would have absolutely endangered people and property.
If a guy crashing a plane without checking gets 20 years I am frothing for when the vaccine manuf terms are announced for not checking.
then 20 years would be justified. however it didnt happen
By that logic attempted murder isn't a crime.
By that logic everyone who lights a camp fire in a national park should be tried for attempted murder because it's a possibility the fire could spread
He tried to get into the vaults
We sent a message
Litter bugs deserve the rope.
>how do laws and regulations work?
you sound brown
Laws are a israeli construct.
Do not cite laws to us we carry swords
>bro why can’t people just act like wild naggers and destroy property in public for social media clout while putting others at risk
Negro hands typed all these
>land of the free
>home of the brave
You don't have to stay lol
Why does everyone keep saying he's gonna get 20 years? 20 years is just the max possible sentence for the crime he's been charged with, doesn't mean he will get it, he could get 2 years, he could get a fine.
He hasn't even been to trial yet
he is white so he will get 20 if the judge is a nagger, israelite, or communist.
How are we supposed to get clicks if we don't use the most salacious possible headline?
Well, it was insurance fraud for starters
He should've worn a helmet.
aviation industry is regulated by the government and also subsidized.... not my problem
The FAA doesnt play around
they have to keep the goyim grounded and stuck in shit hole cities.
only fuds that will jump through all the hoops get to play. thats why pilots act all smug like they are better than everyone.
This. It’s super gay but im not surprised. The NTSB and FAA are super draconian organizations.
>t. couldn't make it as a pilot
DAS RITE
>couldnt afford it....
More realistic.
you'd think he'd see a path working with em as he did, guess all fields for wagies are fucked.
>thats why pilots act all smug like they are better than everyone.
Private pilots are second only to HAM radio operators for being insufferable homosexual bootlicker snitches
>The FAA doesnt play around
Except for Harrison Ford, that dude gets away with all kinds of shit.
yeah I was thinking about this too. At least he had the respect to make the crash look somewhat real. Also, he cooperated with the FAA and didn't hide the wreckage.
Or this.
>people should get clout for doing stupid shit like crashing planes
Ok
wouldn't be charged had he not violated the procedures so fuck his dumb ass i guess
Fucking lazy bones. You use the cart you return the cart. You take the plane off you land it safely. Basic common courtesy.
Litering is a crime.
he was targeting military installations
Poor little Cub, she deserved better.
F
that's the biggest crime here. a perfectly fine 1940 taylorcraft and he destroyed it for youtube views.
This.
It would have been better if the plane made it and he was smeared I to the side of a mountain.
I've always wanted a Cub.
Yep. Deserved the rope for crashing such a good aircraft. 20 years will have to do.
>>20 years in jail for crashing a plane into some mountains in the middle of fucking nowhere
You forgot the part where the NTSB demanded he give them the coordinates to the crash site, but instead he hired a helicopter pilot to airlift the plane out of the mountains and carry it to a private field where he spent several days cutting the plane into tiny pieces and throwing the pieces away in trash bags all over the city.
Thats not suspicious... Any reason he would do that? I mean he uploaded a video of him doing it, he hardly could have tried to keep it a secret
Because it's illegal! He was a dumbass. He did the thing for likes and views and thought the authorities wouldn't notice and then stonewalled them when they questioned him. I guess you don't understand any of it.
But you're sure as hell suspicious of it. The wrong part.
Are you fucking with us? Did he really?
What was the pilot of that Mustang thinking? Holy shit?
Kingcobra
it's banking to the left already as we see in the shot? I'd assume perhaps that the pilot had a combination of failed awareness checks and bad timing so perhaps the Fortress was just barely in view within the canopy...just a hunch..
nepo baby airboss gave dumb instructions and the p63 had his belly pointed at the bomber, he couldn't see a thing.
right, forgot the airboss, he was probably already a few beers in at this point...
I guess that makes sense.
God damn.
I'm certainly no top gun tier hot shot, but I'm pretty sure I could avoid a huge ass bomber in the entire sky.
>save old horse from your war days
>it kills you 60 years later
not sure if based
>Are you fucking with us? Did he really?
>First, he said he couldn't determine the crash location, but in reality, he admitted in the plea agreement to tapping a friend with a helicopter to help him retrieve the wreckage. Upon that retrieval, Jacob then admitted to driving the wreckage to Lompoc City Airport, where he detached parts and tossed them out, dispersing the evidence in airport and other trash receptacles. The plea agreement said this "was done with the intent to obstruct federal authorities from investigating the November 24 plane crash."
https://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2023/05/youtuber-who-crashed-plane-admits-he-did-it-for-money-and-views/
Do I need to look into his early life?
>Jacob admitted in the plea agreement to falsely indicating that the plane had lost power and an engine quit after takeoff. He initially claimed that "because he could not identify any safe landing options, he had parachuted out of the plane," but the DOJ reported that in the plea agreement, he admitted that he staged it all and "intended to make money through the video."
>In April 2022, the FAA revoked Jacob's pilot license, noting that, among other concerns, Jacob made no attempt to contact Air Traffic Control, restart the engine, or look for areas to safely land the plane, "even though there were multiple areas within gliding range" where he could have landed the plane. The FAA determined that Jacob violated federal aviation regulations by operating an aircraft in such a "careless or reckless" manner.
>In addition to admitting in the plea agreement to lying to federal investigators, Jacob seemingly lied to media outlets, too. Last year, Jacob told The New York Times, “I’ll happily say I did not purposely crash my plane for views on YouTube.” He said that he could see why people would think he staged the crash but denied the accusations while saying, "People can believe whatever they choose."

You ever see a little bird go totally psycho on a larger bird in its territory?
Why are there always more angles to this one?
it's like it was at an airshow during a big fancy flight routine that everyone was recording for posterity or something
If that's even half true, the NTSB and FAA are going to fuck him hard.
Kek imagine your paranoia's on so many levels you think its a dead body
I saw this exact same thing on an episode of Dexter except it was a human body not a plane body
it's true, it's been reported the few times I've seen the story
all he had to do was just stick with the story of the plane shut off and wouldnt restart. Its just a coincidence that he had all of those cameras because hes a youtuber. simple.
That plane was 80 years old. It was a beautiful old classic plane. Now it's gone because of this asshole.
Crashing a plane is some very serious shit.
Flying a plane is some very serious shit.
I'll be the first to agree that in cases there's over-regulation, but in this case I'd have to side with the FAA.
did he record it?
I don’t care about him crashing the plane, I care about him doing it for social media points. Attention whores deserve the rope.
You're posting on here to get attention for your post
>says the memeflaggot
As an anonymous poster. It's not nearly the same thing.
he's being charged with obstruction of justice. it's not so much crashing the plane as lying to the feds about it, renting a helicopter to haul the wreckage to an airport, cutting up the wreckage, and disposing of it in multiple places. feds really don't like that shit.
Why did he do that? Is he fucking retarded?
it is a mystery. happened pretty close to where i live. he's really lucky he didn't start a fire, as we get regular fires in this area that routinely take out 100s of houses.
oh so he's a charlatan, duly noted. Would have been funny if his shoot didn't open tbh
://youtu.be/v5lc35Cq5nE
probably wanted to hide the fact that it was deliberate instead of a mechanical failure.
his 'chute?
Because random campers or hikers who seem like they're "in the middle of nowhere" don't deserve to have some homosexual rich kid drp a plane on them you little bitch
It's exceptionally reckless. He had no control over where it landed. It could have killed some one or leveled a house.
>911
lmao nice
>clean it up wagies, i'm dead
its based if you really think about it
If he gets a harsh sentence it would dissuade people from doing similar things, maybe in slightly more populated areas. After seeing that retard tearing books at the library, and this guy, can you put one aand one together?
the guy did it for views, who gives a flying fuck about this dumbass influencer, good riddens
*riddance
When you get a pilot's license, there are rules you must operate under. He broke many of those rules by doing this. open and shut case for a lawyer. As for common sense, it's like shooting a gun at a crowd, and if you didn't hit anyone you're saying no harm no foul?
Also this level of narcissism is dangerous. He's mentally ill.
>He also admitted that he and an unnamed friend used a helicopter to airlift the wreck to the Rancho Sisquoc area on December 10, 2021, where Jacob later loaded it onto a truck trailer, moved it to a hangar at Lompoc Airport, cut it up, and disposed of the pieces in various locations over several days, without authorization and while telling investigators he did not know where it was. Jacob said that the motive for his scheme was to earn commissions from a wallet seller that sponsored his video. Jacob faces a maximum of 20 years in a federal prison as a result.[1][7]

He got 20 years for crashing the plane AND obstructing the FAA's investigation. If he had owned it, he'd have likely suffered some penalties to his license and fines, but not seen prison. And you probably know that, you disingenuous fuck.
how is what he did any different than performance art?
Ever since 9/11, intentionally crashing an aircraft is basically the same as a missile strike. He essentially committed an act of war on government land.
Cause this douche could have killed people. Fuck him.
honestly we just hated seeing a rich spoiled fag waste a good airplane
