I’m not really talking about you per se. I’m more concerned about younger generation of viewers for whom videos like this are the only source of information who take internet vloggers as the ultimate authority in an era when the lines between journalism/consumer advocacy/critique/content/factionalism are more blurred

Whether or not it’s suicide, let’s make sure Boeing isn’t killing anybody with their shitty planes.

Here’s another theory: Dude was suicidal but wanted Boeing to take the blame. 

Maybe not Boeing themselves for reasons all of the above, but a stakeholder with a major stake in the company? But I mean look at Chester Bennington and Robin Williams, Anthony Bourdain. I would have never thought them to be suicidal either. If there is a conspiracy, I don’t think it came from Boeing, if there isn’t

Thanks for the reality check, great explanations.

Fair points, all.

Yeah, it is much more likely an individual within Boeing or affiliated companies that has something on the line is responsible than the Boeing itself.

The idea that he was murdered is ridiculous indeed. Definitely the stuff of a conspiracy theory.

This. Look, I don’t like Boeing, but they’re not going to off a witness, certainly not in the middle of a high profile deposition which would only draw greater scrutiny to them.

The stock down 52% in the past 5 years. You can’t even point at Boeing directly for an assassination conspiracy, it could be down single person who lost money and wanted to take it out on him. So, the list of those with a motive is pretty long.

Yea occam’s razor here would point to the conclusion that the dude killed himself. Why he did is anyone’s guess, but for Boeing to be behind it would require a WHOLE lot more assumptions than a guy under a lot of pressure killing themselves.

Of those:
2000: Julia Roberts - Sassy, real person
2001 - Got naked and looked like she was enjoying sex with Billy Bob
2002 -Real person
2003 - Got fat, got naked, mental health
2004 - Got buff, played disabled
2005 - Real person
2006 - Real person
2007 - Real person
2008 - Got naked. Nazi
2009 - Sassy, real person
2010 - Mental

I think the conspiracy theory here is a little too obvious to really make sense. Why would Boeing kill him when he’s almost finished with his testimony? The timing seems like it would be guaranteed to maximize publicity while not preventing the bulk of his testimony.

The obvious conclusion is Boeing did it, but that would be the obvious conclusion before the fact and anybody planning it would have to be Trump levels of non-self aware to not see that.

Realistically, if Boeing wanted this guy silenced, they would just make him disappear into nothingness, not stage a rather public suicide. It is VERY hard to prove a crime with no body.

We have no idea what else was going on in the guy’s life that could have contributed to his mental health. Going straight to “boeing corporation assassinated him and made it look like suicide” is edging into qanon territory

The BAC that prevents you from boarding is 100%. As long as the person isn’t going to die as soon as they drop the pressure from alcohol poisoning, you let them stagger on.

“and I’m sure the result has been arranged beforehand”

Some athletes are physical and genetic anomalies, and that doesn’t just end once they cross a certain age. Not saying Tyson is one of those

I guess so. It still baffles me just how you can get hit by an object on a fixed route. Ah well anything short of getting arrested and left on the tracks.
