Depression is super common and most people don't know they have it. If you feel like something in your life just isn't right please get checked out and save yourself years of living a miserable nightmare.

Rest In Peace, Big Guy.

What if therapy is too expensive

*Well he sure did go out with style!*

That's exactly what he did.

Bittersweet really. I don’t know how to really think of it either. I pray God forgives him for taking his own life but a part of me feels happy for him that he went out the way he wanted… I don’t know, such a strange story and guy. I bet he was someone you would have a beer with.

At least he went out in style without taking anyone with him. for that he didnt have as many screws loose and many may say. RIP

@@Watefak I know it’s a bit annoying calling this poor guy a hero or a legend but I think the context of those statements represent something else. I truly don’t think they really think he is a hero or a legend it’s just a lazy figure of speech.

Nah he just had no fear. If trained pilots had no fear as well they could do it even better. They just dont want to risk their lives and their passengers so they dont attempt to do it.

@@f.f.657 It be a whole lot better if they did!!!

That has to be the greatest pirate I've ever seen

Best pilot 😂he couldn’t land it great take off tho

@@resksmith5862 his point was to crash it, but safely to not harm anyone directly. So from his perspective he landed it perfectly. Besides he didn't want to put landing aid on, so he could crash it. He knew what he was doing. He deserves to be remembered as a pilot legend.

I totally get this. I think a lot of us felt some kind of emotional connection to him. I wish he knew how fondly people (who had never met him) think of him now.

I can’t even believe this happened. It doesn’t even compute in my mind. I can’t fathom any of it. Ha

What if he wasn't pink?

Nice, you stole someone else’s comment.

He certainly practiced at home on a flight simulator. But it's still extremely impressive

You should watch the documentary. He did much more than just a smooth take off. Pushed the limits on that plane. He told atc he was going to do a circle flip....and he did it. Now that's impressive!

How he a legend what did he do to make him a legend

A LOT; to discourage copycats and terrorists.

either alot or almost nothing cause of mental problems

It’s felony to steal a MV, aircraft, boat etc…

First offender... Non-violent offense with no damages or injuries and no passenger. Honestly they would make him do 3 months of a 2 year sentence out on good behavior and he'd be on a very long probation mandatory therapy checkins. Not a big deal at all. A really good attorney might have even gotten him less time than that but he would be with a PD from the sound of his situation. He is an illustration of how we collectively turn a blind eye to people like him and fully expect them to check out just not in such a glorious fashion. We expect white males like him to OD quietly at home on fentanyl.

@@Lindsey_Lockwood mandatory therapy chickens too 🐔🐓🐓

This world is full of s**t holes. You wouldn't of cared.

Maybe, maybe not. Sometimes even successful people with lots of friends still have "a few screws loose", and we don't yet have the medical technology to understand much less fix many brain problems.

@@DemPilafian Agreed. Some people have a great support network, have a job they enjoy, have a family they love, etc. and it frankly doesn't always make a difference. Even with these things, some people will be depressed. Even without, some people will be happy. I wish he received help but he didn't - or it didn't work for him.

Don't ask me how i know. But when you want to die, you want to die! You don't want a hug, a friend, a load of money or anything, you just want to end it.

But that's the thing nobody is willing to be the right person until after the fact

@@lifeisshort..1685 My husband, up until 4 months ago made a hefty salary. His contract ended resulting in us having to move across country He took a much lower paying job with a company (coincidentally, building aircrafts) he's been wanting to work for for years. Before the move we lived in a luxury apartment with all the amenities close to everything in our city. Now we live in a double wide that needs lots of work because buying was cheaper than renting (we prefer to rent, less responsibility. Im aware that you throw away money renting, but we didnt care) I was really upset when we moved. It's not the life I have been accustomed to for the past 7 years. I really had to dig deep and realize so many ppl would be grateful for the things I have now and if I let it get to me, I was going to continue to be miserable. I didn't want that because we can die any day without notice. Moral of the story, I went from having tons of money to throw away, to living from paycheck to paycheck and I can still live happily as long as I humble myself and allow it to happen ❤

@@RC-cc1xl You just changed my entire thinking, I've been living off from paycheck to paycheck and feeling miserable about it that I never get a salary raise and felt more miserbale when I found out my co-worker and same position gets paid thrice of what I get.
