But we know he's a very rare case. More commonly, more businesses would be robbed if a person is not sent to jail. People don't usually "turn their life around" after they commit armed robbery. Society is much safer with those violent criminals in jail.

Guananteed if he ended up in prison he wouod become a habitual re-offender! All u learn in prison is how to become more of a criminal, to not trust the system and develop a hatred for authority. Not to mentiom the lifetime mental health problems you suffer. Too bad prisons are more focused on punishment than rehabilitation. But thats how industrial prison complex works and how these privatized prisons make $$. Its the revolving door that keeps them in business. This man was successful in life BECAUSE he didnt soend those 11 years behind bars like an animal.

He was probably not really a bad guy but was thrown into a difficult situation he didnt know how to handle at the time.

Another reason justice system is joke

Also if he did goto jail. I can almost guarantee he wouldve gone back to crime after getting out. Like most criminals are forced into. HUGE uncommon judge W

It just makes me wonder how many other times the justice system has screwed up and the person remained in jail.

@NYyankeeboi Too many. There's too many that either weren't talked about enough or at all (both not found out and that never got media attention) alone. Innocent until proven guilty is no longer the philosophy. It is solely a legal 'term' that is used to help a small minority; then lawyers and judges point to and say "Look the system works!" (More judge than lawyer issue ofc). The system is not just fucked. It's absolutely broken. Like every other civilized culture, rehabilitation should be the goal - not punishment.

@@nineplusnineis1869 good lord ! Is he disabled ?

Yup.

Would it be possible that the updraft brought oxygen with it, so that the air above the storm had a higher oxygen content than would be expected for that altitude?

That actually makes perfect sense about the theory of how the paraglider survived. Similar to when someone who's drowned in an icy lake, can sometimes be revived. And she would be having more oxygen intake then someone underwater. But you're right the low temperature along with her lower consumption of oxygen, when she passed out, is what saved her life. And regarding the question as to whether the updraft would bring oxygen with it, it wouldn't be enough to make a difference the air is too thin at that altitude. It was the cold temperature and her unconscious state that reduced her body's need for oxygen, temporarily.

@@minerat27 The air at 32,000 feet is not “deoxygenated” or anything like that. The composition of the atmosphere that high is pretty much the same as it is at the surface. The problem is that the air pressure is so low that the amount of oxygen in each breath is not enough to sustain normal human life. The theory stated above is that with her body in this “standby mode,” the small amount of oxygen per breath was enough to keep her alive.

Yea, I wondered about her unconscious state. I saw another story about a guy who survived being picked up by a tornado because he was knocked out and unconscious.

Question is someone had to be up there watching while Ava was unconscious, how would they know what’s going on while Ava is literally out 🤔

Pretty sure the highest person ever is still Snoop Dog

Reminds me of the chef on the titanic that survived because of his booze lol

yep, also the combination of the glider and it opening up abruptly shaking her internals acting like a defib unit or maybe she was hit with the perfect amount of lightening to re-create that affect without frying her amazingly lucky

being frozen while falling unconscious probably helped, there is many tales of people that stopped breathing in freezing temperatures for up to an hour but medics manage to get them breathing again and they survive without any brain damage. seems like she went through a similar process but the falling fast and the jilt from the chute re-opening somehow cased her heart to kick in and circulate oxygen, which is why the jilt woke her up

The metabolism doesn’t shutdown. When cold the heart beat slows (causing loss of consciousness). The blood flow constricts, so the heat stays in the center of your body

@@electrictroy2010 No, but cold is known to greatly slow down destruction of cells in the brain that would otherwise die from lack of oxygen.

New prison sentences be like "yeah, you get 13 years starting... whenever we show up. Get yer shit together and maybe we won't. Who knows. I dunno"

True... also, the fact that he was living and working meant that he was contributing positively to society and paying taxes. Had he been in prison for those 13 years, just housing and feeding him would have used thousands of dollars per year, with him likely having a harder time transitioning to life as a law-abiding citizen once he was out.

I made the same comment just now. I thought he said Trump family but knew I heard wrong when he said hard working.

Yep I thought that.

Actually that came to my mind as well😅😂😂

Sometimes organisms or more "stuff that can kill them" aids one another in incredible ways. I no of more than one car accident victim, that was hurt so bad, that there was no realistic chance to survive until help could arrive, let alone before a treatment starts to help. But then those people went into shock. Untreated shock is deadly itself because it basically slows down the whole organism until it stops working, but it can be treated fast and effectively so in those cases lives were saved because a shock slowed down the bleeding out through wounds that otherwise would have been deadly. Once I read an article about a woman who was taking a walk was her neighbor, when she fell in a really old well (what was left of it) and because the ground next to it collapsed when she fell in she got buried alive. When her friend realized that she couldn't get her out and might even make the situation worse by trying to dig with bare hands she made sure to find that place again and ran to get help. After they got her out and to the hospital the case was investigated, just to make sure that it was really an accident. They discovered that by the density of the earth she was buried under and the given space it was kind of a miracle that she was even found alive, concisus but alive and when the doctors said that she was even highly expected to make a FULL recovery the mystery deepens because there was no way that this small "cave" she was caught in for hours could hold enough oxygen that makes that possible. But the pulmonologist came up with a very "earthly" explanation. The woman had a chronical lung disease that resulted in her lungs being less efficient getting oxygen out of the breathing air. Doing no sports, she never knew that. But that made it possible to last longer with the same amount of oxygen as a healthy person in the first place and when she went unconscious the oxygen she did breathe in could be used more efficient (for example a person who is in distress and close to hyperventilating is way less efficient as a person that stays calm, talking, even thinking.. all that leads to needing more oxygen. So basically she was alive and well thanks to a lung disease she didn't even know she had. When I got my Husky from those who rescued him he was badly dehydrated so we put him on an i.v. When he reached a healthy level of hydration he started to bleed through the nose, unstoppable, we had to narcotize him, and treat the bleeding nostrils with a substance that forces the blood vessels to astringe. Doing his blood work it showed that he must have a birth defect or so that lead to significant lack of thrombocytes so he wasn't a "bleeder" in the usual sense when the system of blood clotting is broken. But with that low thrombocytes his body didn't have the ability to close of wounds or rifts so a sneeze that brakes a blood vessel that is a little too big to just be cut of while healing he would bleed, same with wounds. When I brought him home he kind of "explained" me why he was even alive. There are ways to treat that, but he was taken from an owner that chained him up for years and didn't even care for the basics so it seems "unlikely" that he had treated such a blood disease. The answer was handed to my by the dog. That dog didn't know how to drink. He knew how to lick dew from grass and stuff.. but a water bowl was first nothing he understood at all, and after he understood how and that he could drink it he just emptied any bowl of water out until he vomited and the went for more. He had to LEARN how to drink. But it gave a sad explanation for the question how he could be alive.. He wasn't just dehydrated when he arrived to start his new life with me (I work in an animal hospital and couldn't get the day of, so a friend picked him up at the airport and brought him to me at the clinic what turned out to be the best thing) chained in some yard on Mallorca left to mostly fend for himself (he was great and determent when it came to hunting insects, that musk have been a big part of his "diet") he was kind of all the time in some stage of dehydration. His blood got thicker so it couldn't just pour out of blood vessels ruptured by sneezing, coughing or stuff.. so he survived because his owner nearly let him starve and die oft thirst. In those years his body kind of find some kind of "balance" in this and when we rehydrated him, we kind of broke a dam his body had build up. And yes of course there was organ damage because of all the malnutrition and dehydration. But he was alive what he would have never been if his owner hat given him a nice bowl of water often enough. His organ problems were treatable and we had a few great with this dog that was loving and always so happy. He didn't got to get really old BUT he had 5 years with us and I dare to say those years were good for all of us. So if this story is accurate (some stories get bigger and "more" with every time they are told) it is likely that all the stuff she went through turned out in such strange supports, like "getting unconscious because of that hypothermia set her in a situation that slowed her organism down so the lack of oxygen could be tolerated better and longer as it was possible in a conscious person that is not "close to be frozen solid hypothermic". Organisms have strange ways to stay alive and sometimes those ways are amazing.
