The Czech Republic’s richest man, billionaire investor Petr Kellner, was one of five people killed in a helicopter crash in Alaska, officials have confirmed.

The 56-year-old founder of investment group PPF was among four passengers on a heli-ski tour who died alongside their pilot Saturday near Knik Glacier northeast of Anchorage, Alaska State Troopers said.

“An unbelievable tragedy,” said Czech Prime Minister Andrej Babis, who offered “sincere condolences” to Kellner’s wife, Renata, and his four children.

I’d have a close look at Sairy Paling.

Too many coincidences.

Helicopter tour operation X Alaska = danger squared.

I must admit, this is the first thing I thought of - from The Naked Gun

(and that’s exactly how it would happen, too)

On a serious note:

Condolences to their families. Friend of mine was an Apache pilot. He had to do some crazy stuff testing those birds.

Maybe the guy knows what’s in Hillary’s 33,000 emails that she erased.

When you have more money, you do more things. When you do more things, chances of something going wrong increase.

No one is in control of their own demise. No matter how much money they had, these people could not delay their respective appointments with death.
It is perplexing as well why certain evil people live so long.
In the end it is only the ones who Trust Christ who achieve eternal life.

So now Andrej Babis will became the Czech Republic richest person. I think, he was stressed up by being only the second richest. But he is also a politician.

Yes, and no.

Those in Hell will be gone and forgotten.

Penniless or wealthy, your meaning is correct: Without Christ no one gets to the Father.

I hope he and those he was with were Christians.

If not, may it please the LORD God to bring their loved ones to know the Salvation Plan and accept Christ as their Savior. Amen.
