why would someone going down be recording this?

Why would anyone object to it?

That’s an amazing graphic. It’s so true, and yet you don’t expect to see it so accurately addressed. It’s an amazing graphic.

Just curious..did parts of your life that you didn’t even think you remembered in your day to day normal living basis start to flash before you as you thought you were going to die?

Anyone who viewed the video on a device other than the original probably put it on a server-synched device. A PC for example, as a file. Backed up automatically. Shared with a few close friends in the lab. Sent to a personal email account. Etc.

It’s like Lois Lerner’s emails or Hillary’s server. The data is out there. It is highly unlikely that they have hermetically sealed off all possibilities of digital copies.

It’s either “oh man I’m gonna get a LOT of hits on YouTube” OR they simply wanted to help investigators see what really happened on that flight. A last good deed by one passenger.. What else COULD they do in that situation?

Yes I know pressurized at 5500 feet opening the door would have been impossible but I would have given it a shot. Terminal speed of a falling human is about 125 mph - better than the 550 mph of that ghost ship.

Interesting idea, but wouldn't you be ripped apart trying to exit an airplane flying at 550 mph assuming you didn't slam into the tail or some other part of it?

That’s assuming an awful lot. Even if it did go on a server, a properly built LAN wouldn’t allow access to the outside.

I have taken hundreds of GBs of photos and videos onto flash cards. I move them to my computer at home and to the NAS on my local home network, but that doesn’t mean they are out there in the cloud.

If you survived you'd die a slow death in the Alps.

While the terminal speed of a falling human is slower, that passenger would still leave the plane at 550 mph! Granted, they would slow relatively quickly (somewhere between the plane speed and terminal), but probably not before being flung into a mountain at a very high speed.

At times like that, it's good to know that your seat cushion can be used as a floatation device.

Who knows - I could land on a patch of thick snowpack (without not breaking my neck/spine) and then I would be howling like a wolf for about 15 minutes and be rescued by a St. Bernard with Brandy in a little keg under his chin.

I think about these things.
