Bomb detector -beep beep beep, baggage claim guy - it's not the right sound even even though none of the other bags make any noise let's put it on the plane 😳
Back in that day, certain instruments could make sounds for no reason at all, or could make one type of noise for something hazardous, and another for something harmless. The rushed instructions were probably somewhat to blame - if the instructor had said "if this makes any noise, separate the bag," that probably would have prevented the problem.

Free falling in a plane must be the most terrifying way to go. The anger, sadness and regret for getting on that plane know your imminent death while waiting for impact. You just pray the impact is what kills you and not fire. RIP to all those on board who lost their lives 🙏🏻♥️
So this athelete dude says HE didn't carry the gasoline on board... he just "handed his bag to a family member that carried it on board". Then says "my family was on board, why would I carry gas on the plane" (and risk their lives). YEAH... why did you? It doesn't matter if YOU carried it or you gave your bag to someone else **to carry on board** ... YOU were the reason it was there.
Yeah in all honesty that is true but the guilt is on the the guys job to ensure safety. Should be fired and put down as a potential threat to any security job in the future.

They found a few who died of drowning but could have been unconscious as they drowned including a pregnant woman whose fetus was found to have been perfectly fine and died after the woman drowned. Absolutely terrifying.
Bleach is quite a dangerous liquid on its own. The fumes are toxic to most people - why would you leave bleach in baggage in the first place. It’s cheap, easily obtainable - the security person should have confiscated it anyway. Wouldn’t most people, security or not, find that it shouldn’t go on board? I don’t know why anyone would buy two bottles of bleach, let alone have it in cabin luggage? 🤔

@@lionman3378most likely anyone who maintains a "I'm a victim" attitude who would justify any nefarious actions committed by them. Sometimes, today's culture, the media, and politicians, can foster such unfortunate and often crippling mindsets in individuals. No one is immune to adopting such an attitude if they refuse to take full responsibility for their success or failure in their own life.
Me either, but they learned from the errors in the past. That should give us enough confidence. I fly three to four times a year with two being international flights 😅
This is alarming to know that with this incident and many like it that the cockpits were not reinforced BFORE 9/11 and such a tragedy could have been averted.
I know for a fact that a US based airline took off with my bag and I wasn’t on the flight. I arrived early enough and checked in my bags and never made it to the terminal to board. It was an international flight and i was marked a ‘no show’. They went in about how it was my fault and they may not be about to put me on another flight until well after the holidays. I said okay and what not then asked for my checked in bags to go home and they were all looking at me. They eventually put me on another flight and I made the trip. Didn’t see my bags until reaching final destination.
In Australia, if a passenger fails to board on time, then the flight is delayed whilst that passenger's luggage is unloaded from the cargo hold. I've been on flights whilst that happens, the delays have sometimes taken ~15 minutes.
Hi I work at the airport checking in international flights :) When the plane is delayed, or u miss ur flight etc. Ur bag can fly w/o u bc we know u’ll eventually fly. So yes the procedure & checks are done properly. Esp after 9/11 we have to. The regulation states that Luggage cannot be checked in unless the passenger is checked in & confirmed to fly. It doesnt have to specifically be w/ a passenger onboard but it has to be confirmed that its checked in w/ a passenger who is or will eventually be flying :) Like one of the commenters stated YES if ur not boarding ur bags were supposed to be offloaded but bc u stated u wanted another flight i believe ur bags were sent bc u wld eventually fly out & YES the no show & blaming u is bs! Im sorry they made u feel like that
I'll never understand. Someone put gas in those bottles. Someone knows the truth. Someone is living with that truth, and I pray they come forward. A guilty conscience is a terrible thing to live with. Thank God it didn't happen while the plane was in the air. May the passenger that perished rest in peace. Prayers for all the injured, physically, mentally, and emotionally.
Well no they dont need to come forward. They say it right there in the documentary that the person who brought the gas on the plane was Ku Chin Shui. He was tried 5 times and declared not guilty because they found gasoline on multiple items other than the bottles. I couldnt find much on who actually brought a broken live motor battery which caused the ignition and subsequent explosion. I cant think of reasons he'd need gasoline specifically but you cant bring things such as pressurized cans either so the charge on him would be the same as if someone brought a can of axe body spray and someone else put a lighter in a different compartment that caused it to burst. Guilty conscience is right though seeing as the person who died is actually his brother who was likely under the compartment that exploded.
Its so gut wrenching to know that incidents like the 1st story has to happen in order for air flights to be safer in all ends. Im not speaking of mechanical, but hijacked issues.
Often times it takes several bad accidents for people to take health and safety laws seriously. The amount of nightclub fires, stampedes etc around the world wouldn't have happened if governments had taken the necessary safety steps that were expected of them and that other countries were doing for years prior. Kiss nightclub fire and seoul crush for example.
It takes courageous people, like those on 9/11 who took down one of the weaponized planes, they probably saved hundreds to thousands of people. Most are so fearful, they freeze. They want to do something but cannot. Others are courage filled and brave.
As others have noted, some people may freeze in fear, not wanting to catch the 3rd bullet. Also, some people may be waiting to act, hoping for an unguarded minute on the gunman's part. And some people may freeze simply because they do not know what to do - they have been faced with a situation which they never expected to encounter, and need time to figure out a plan of action, but time may be something they do not have.
41:23 That’s just wrong! He was the one who carried gasoline onto the plane, so how’s he not responsible? I think that country was protecting a star athlete. Same goes for the person who brought the motorcycle battery on board.
Court systems tend to be pretty strict about what kind of evidence is sufficient. I don't know how it works the ROC, but I'm assuming there's probably a requirement to prove intent, and since the fuel was in a bleach bottle, it probably would have required compelling evidence to prove that he intended to bring something other than bleach into the plane.
As a frequent traveller, way too many planes take off with my bags and with much stress and frustration without me so I think these baggage rules introduced after Air India aren't followed as much as people think
Hi I work at the airport :) Bags aren’t allowed to be checked in unless we know the passengers flying. When the plane is delayed, or u miss ur flight etc. Ur bag can fly w/o u bc our systems confirmed when and with who u’ll eventually fly. So yes the procedure & checks are done properly. Esp after 9/11 we have to. The regulation states that Luggage cannot be checked in unless the passenger is checked in & confirmed to fly. It doesnt have to specifically be w/ a passenger onboard but it has to be confirmed that its checked in w/ a passenger who is or will eventually be flying :)
@@CaIiforniaL0VE Not sure about that. I was flying to Bolivia from Montreal and landed in Miami, in March 2002 (6 months after 9/11) and I had missed my plane with AA to LaPaz. I had checked-in my luggage and was waiting for a later flight to LaPaz (9 hr layover). I boarded the later flight and arrived in LaPaz early morning the next day. I was looking for my luggage on the carrousel and couldn't find it. I asked luggage service to help and a lady working in baggage claim walked me into a storage room where I found my luggage. It turns out that my luggage arrived before and without me on a previous flight. So, please explain what might have gone wrong?
What I was wondering is why were there leads linked to battery post? Something very wrong here,, you never leave wires hooked to a battery post, They wanted it to spark!
It was probably an accident ...why did t smell the gasoline when they were prowling around in the Baggage carry below strolling & looking for stuff . ...they could have been bored!? Don't ask me.. ..
Pacific Southwest Airlines Flight 1771 was estimated to have been traveling at 770 miles per hour (1,240 kilometers per hour) when it crashed into a hillside in the Santa Lucia Mountains near Paso Robles and Cayucos at 4:16 PM. The plane disintegrated instantly after hitting the rocky ground.
Wow, you figured out all by yourself that PSA 1771 'disintegrated instantly' after vertical impact with hard ground at 1240 km/hr? FFS, do you think everybody else needs to be TOLD this?
There are still issues with security at the airport. I have seen screeners just go through the motions while checking baggage. They don’t make a lot of money from TSA, but are better paid than security officers.
I agree & disagree lol. I work at the airport, so I agree theres loopholes to bypass security or the agent isnt that careful bc they’re overworked esp at my busy airport LAX. Where I disagree is tsa’s arent paid alot bc in california TSA’s make the highest amt of money in the airport after flight attendants & pilots. Im a check in agent & we make minimum compared to them.
David Burke could just move to another state with his family and with the remaining money. Starting a new life is better than committing THAT... Or he could just unalive his boss at night near his house, but not on a plane😢
How can an employee who's been fired still keep their credentials?? Why weren't they forced to give them up at the time of termination? That's the biggest no-brainer ever.
Bc something like that never happened before. Sadly in Aviation everythings regulated after something happens. If we get fired now, we have to IMMEDIATELY turn in our security badge (I work at the airport) In our trainings we HAD to watch a video about this flight & had an examination about this exact incident, why we turn in our badges & how it changed regulations
Does anyone realize they say the same few words in every episode? Like “the worst disaster in…” or “the most devastating disaster in…” but then they change it up a little like “the worst accident in a decade” “the worst disaster in LA” etc etc
I was in Frankfurt Germany once boarding a Lufthansa flight to Atlanta. There was a bomb threat called in and they put all the luggage on the ground and everyone had to point out their luggage and then board the plane and only then was your luggage loaded. This way if you had something that was going to blow up in your bags, you were damn sure going to have a front row seat to the event. Thankfully, nothing blew up but it's a sickening feeling knowing a bomb threat was called in on the plane you're ridingon. 😂😅
I work at LAX and theres a bomb threat every few months! 98% of the time its a false alarm but every time it happens its a hassle bc every bag, passenger, worker etc we ALL exit the airport & stand outside until its investigated thoroughly.
This show is insanely well made and captivating, top production. I'm used to CZcamsrs analyzing air disasters and while they do a great job with the tools they have, it doesn't come close to this level.
For the life of me, I'll never, ever, understand why passengers use aircrafts to transport all sorts of household products. Get to your home, then take your car, or the bus, or a cab, go to a store and buy your freaking cleaning products and go back home. Don't take an airplane to do basic shopping!
I feel kind of sorry for that airline employee who allowed that bag with the bomb through when she broke the rule. She is responsible for all those deaths. She must feel so guilty and can never escape it. I wouldnt want to be in her shoes.

Not long after the Air India disaster we flew Toronto to Gatwick with them. The security was horrendous, 3 security searches and the plane was gated right near the airport security fence well away from other aircraft. As we taxied out the RCMP drove along under each wing. They peeled away as we entering the runway.
A Nigerian DC-3 of OGIBUBUGUJU Airlines ( a domestic carrier) flying between the capital Lagos and Kaduna state crashed after the Captain had a stomach bacterial infection/food poisoning. He stood up in the cockpit and accidentally diarrhea on the central console causing a short circuit in the electrical system. The plane’s magnetos ( it was a piston engined radial job) failed and the aircraft made a forced landing in the jungle. INCREDIBLY!!!! Everyone survived.
I worked for the company that handled Air India's cargo. We got a transfer of diplomatic cargo, and it was run out to the aircraft and loaded onto the last LD-3 going into the belly. The rest is history. Dip mail is MUST GO on the first available so as soon as we got it, it was in the jeep and off to Terminal 2 at Pearson. No one had a chance to look at it or even think about in Toronto.
@@eco_man_8652 This show is about airplane accidents. There's one episode about a train accident and one about a ferry, but that's it. As for the original question, "hate" is a strong word.

The theory doesn't explain how gasoline got into the bleach bottle...wtf? Was there no real investigation into that? If that guy put gas in the bottle or knew there was gas in the bottle, he should have been at least somewhat legally responsible.
@@Darthjacob-xg9sm that's so strange the urge to need 6 separate trials and not discover the simple fact that he brought 2 bottles of bleach with gasoline. For me it's very clear: it was intended with someone else inside the plane. It's plausible investigators doesn't know why or how, but the fact still remais .... You are the only responsable to bring gasoline.
Canadian Govt + Khalistan bombers = Air India 182. An alert was issued a month ago for this kinda of activity, but the OFC Canadian government ignored it.

I work at LAX as a check in agent for an Airline. Theres a “secret passageway” for employees to use that bypasses TSA. Only Check in agents are allowed to use this passage w/ a security badge bc we don’t fly with passengers we check them in and board our flights. Most of us use this path bc LAX is extremely busy & its a hassle for us to wait in long TSA lines, especially when we need to board on time. Im just now realizing that this isn’t a good thing, bc even though were thoroughly screened to get a job like this, u never know whose on the verge of “snapping” & doing something as horrific as this.
We are so goofy with our false sense of security you guys realize when I worked for Everts as the person who just answered the phone... Employees like McDonald's employees we just go in the airport... We can go through any door... We have no reason to be in that airport in Anchorage Alaska but we can go through the airport and no issue whatsoever... I found myself in some places I'm like man if I had nefarious intentions... We're not going to stop people who are motivated all we are doing is inconveniencing ourselves for false sense of security
9:52 I like how, when they reacted the situation that the whole is about few years inches deep when, if a plane were to hit like that, it’d be 7 feet deep minimum
As a frequent flyer from Canada, I can tell you that Canadian security was lax in the 1960s, 1970s and 1980s up and until 1985 after the Air India disaster. I believe the politically correct nature of Anglo-Canadians that did not want to offend, as the segment clearly shows and the incompetence of security agents, contributed to the flights tragic demise. What the video does show is that 37 years later, an old suspect of the bombing, Ripudaman Singh Malik, who was acquitted in 2005, was shot and killed in Surrey, B.C., in 2022. This whole investigation cost the Canadian Tax payer over $130 million. Supreme Court of Canada Justice John C. Major. tore, in 2010, into the Canadian government and its "wholly deficient" agencies. He stated that failure to prevent the bombing was "inexcusable," CSIS (Canadian CIA) was "ineffective" and noted a "lax security culture" at airports. The RCMP "failed" to protect threatened witnesses. Major could not understand why CSIS deleted its wiretap tapes: "Inconceivable, incomprehensible, indefensible, incompetence," he had written in a 3200 page report. I believe that in 2024, the "lax security culture" may still be present in major Canadian airports (YUL, YYC, YYZ and YVR). The US government forced Canada to drastically apply security measures and cordon-off sections of Canadian airports with US bound flights after 9/11 at an exuberant cost for both physical and electronic security improvements and modernization, which Canadians and international passengers had to pay airport improvement fees. No incidents since 1985 and the chances of such an incident happening again are very low BUT never Zero.
You’d be surprised that security is still not that tight at airports in regards to their employees. As someone who used to work in the ramp, at a smaller city airport, we didn’t have to go through security. I think some ramp agents didn’t have to go through security in larger airports either because a few years ago, ramp agents out of ATL were smuggling guns on Delta flights.
It shld be noted that in case of Taiwanese guy who caused the bottles of gasoline to be brought on board, he was originally found guilty n sentenced to ten years in prison. Yes, he was found not guilty after an appeal, but originally was found guilty.
Fico impressionado com o nível de profissionalismo dos investigadores de acidentes aéreos. Em meio a tantos destroços conseguiram encontrar o revólver e mais tarde identificar o terrorista. Esse tipo de conduta profissional deveria existir em muitas outras profissões.
The 3rd incident of the athele.. athelete was guilty regardless. We r responsible for our luggages. He planned it as evidenced by: 1. he disclosed to the security check point that it was cleaning solution - but investigators found out it was gasoline. 2. athlete said to the court that he didnt know that his relatives added cleaning solution in his luggage - yet he sounded he knew it was in his luggage because he disclosed at the check point why he had them. (Cant he buy cleaning stuff at his destination?). Also the security check point officer didnt do his job correctly.

I’m not sure I can get on a plane again after watching all seasons of this show. Never really been fearful of flying. But now……
Me either, but they learned from the errors in the past. That should give us enough confidence. I fly three to four times a year with two being international flights 😅

This is alarming to know that with this incident and many like it that the cockpits were not reinforced BFORE 9/11 and such a tragedy could have been averted.
I think one is too many but as a business were there many incidents? I don’t know so what is “many”?
@@oldwomanranting From what I have seen on these channels-apparently.
Libya with Gaddafi sponsored so many terrorist hijacking of planes all over the world
I know for a fact that a US based airline took off with my bag and I wasn’t on the flight. I arrived early enough and checked in my bags and never made it to the terminal to board. It was an international flight and i was marked a ‘no show’.
They went in about how it was my fault and they may not be about to put me on another flight until well after the holidays.
I said okay and what not then asked for my checked in bags to go home and they were all looking at me. They eventually put me on another flight and I made the trip. Didn’t see my bags until reaching final destination.
I had that in 1980 -- I missed boarding. My bag went on anyway.
I think they’re supposed to have protocols for that - not flying your items if you aren’t on the flight (especially if it’s an international one)
In Australia, if a passenger fails to board on time, then the flight is delayed whilst that passenger's luggage is unloaded from the cargo hold. I've been on flights whilst that happens, the delays have sometimes taken ~15 minutes.
What year was this?
Hi I work at the airport checking in international flights :) When the plane is delayed, or u miss ur flight etc. Ur bag can fly w/o u bc we know u’ll eventually fly. So yes the procedure & checks are done properly. Esp after 9/11 we have to.
The regulation states that Luggage cannot be checked in unless the passenger is checked in & confirmed to fly. It doesnt have to specifically be w/ a passenger onboard but it has to be confirmed that its checked in w/ a passenger who is or will eventually be flying :) Like one of the commenters stated YES if ur not boarding ur bags were supposed to be offloaded but bc u stated u wanted another flight i believe ur bags were sent bc u wld eventually fly out & YES the no show & blaming u is bs! Im sorry they made u feel like that
The smell tests for bottles is terrible. They could make a bottle with a divider & just fill the very top with the appropriate liquid! Smh
Not to mention that it's dangerous to the employee, and many people don't have a good sense of smell in the first place.
I'll never understand. Someone put gas in those bottles. Someone knows the truth. Someone is living with that truth, and I pray they come forward. A guilty conscience is a terrible thing to live with. Thank God it didn't happen while the plane was in the air. May the passenger that perished rest in peace. Prayers for all the injured, physically, mentally, and emotionally.
Gasoline could have been for his car, or to polish something like sneakers
Well no they dont need to come forward. They say it right there in the documentary that the person who brought the gas on the plane was Ku Chin Shui. He was tried 5 times and declared not guilty because they found gasoline on multiple items other than the bottles. I couldnt find much on who actually brought a broken live motor battery which caused the ignition and subsequent explosion. I cant think of reasons he'd need gasoline specifically but you cant bring things such as pressurized cans either so the charge on him would be the same as if someone brought a can of axe body spray and someone else put a lighter in a different compartment that caused it to burst. Guilty conscience is right though seeing as the person who died is actually his brother who was likely under the compartment that exploded.
Its so gut wrenching to know that incidents like the 1st story has to happen in order for air flights to be safer in all ends. Im not speaking of mechanical, but hijacked issues.
If there were no blacks in America or the world, the first air crash would never have happened.
Often times it takes several bad accidents for people to take health and safety laws seriously. The amount of nightclub fires, stampedes etc around the world wouldn't have happened if governments had taken the necessary safety steps that were expected of them and that other countries were doing for years prior. Kiss nightclub fire and seoul crush for example.
It still boggles my mind that 50 people will sit and do nothing to a man that has a 6-shot pistol -and has already used 2 shots.
It's probably because of fear.
some people freeze in that kind of situation
No one wants to catch the 3rd bullet
It takes courageous people, like those on 9/11 who took down one of the weaponized planes, they probably saved hundreds to thousands of people. Most are so fearful, they freeze. They want to do something but cannot. Others are courage filled and brave.
As others have noted, some people may freeze in fear, not wanting to catch the 3rd bullet.
Also, some people may be waiting to act, hoping for an unguarded minute on the gunman's part. And some people may freeze simply because they do not know what to do - they have been faced with a situation which they never expected to encounter, and need time to figure out a plan of action, but time may be something they do not have.
41:23 That’s just wrong! He was the one who carried gasoline onto the plane, so how’s he not responsible? I think that country was protecting a star athlete. Same goes for the person who brought the motorcycle battery on board.
I'm agree with that.
Something smells very bad about this
Court systems tend to be pretty strict about what kind of evidence is sufficient. I don't know how it works the ROC, but I'm assuming there's probably a requirement to prove intent, and since the fuel was in a bleach bottle, it probably would have required compelling evidence to prove that he intended to bring something other than bleach into the plane.
I had never heard of this 1st one. But O My God, How Horrific!!!😢
The world is full of crazies,and it's worse everyday.
That's terrible. I mean WHY take out all those innocent people???
@@trawlins396 They have no conscience. Cold blooded like a reptile.
As a frequent traveller, way too many planes take off with my bags and with much stress and frustration without me so I think these baggage rules introduced after Air India aren't followed as much as people think
Hi I work at the airport :) Bags aren’t allowed to be checked in unless we know the passengers flying. When the plane is delayed, or u miss ur flight etc. Ur bag can fly w/o u bc our systems confirmed when and with who u’ll eventually fly. So yes the procedure & checks are done properly. Esp after 9/11 we have to.

@@CaIiforniaL0VE Not sure about that. I was flying to Bolivia from Montreal and landed in Miami, in March 2002 (6 months after 9/11) and I had missed my plane with AA to LaPaz. I had checked-in my luggage and was waiting for a later flight to LaPaz (9 hr layover). I boarded the later flight and arrived in LaPaz early morning the next day. I was looking for my luggage on the carrousel and couldn't find it. I asked luggage service to help and a lady working in baggage claim walked me into a storage room where I found my luggage. It turns out that my luggage arrived before and without me on a previous flight. So, please explain what might have gone wrong?
Who brought the battery on board? Did they figure out who gave the athlete the gasoline?!
What I was wondering is why were there leads linked to battery post? Something very wrong here,, you never leave wires hooked to a battery post, They wanted it to spark!
It was probably an accident ...why did t smell the gasoline when they were prowling around in the Baggage carry below strolling & looking for stuff . ...they could have been bored!? Don't ask me.. ..
This is why I’m glad security measures are more strict nowadays.
So horrible accidents like this don’t happen again.

There are still issues with security at the airport. I have seen screeners just go through the motions while checking baggage. They don’t make a lot of money from TSA, but are better paid than security officers.
DEI at work at the nation's worst state.
@@louv3347 Yeah let's just blame all our problems on DIE instead of perhaps a lack of training or funds. Yup DEI all our problems come from DEI.
I agree & disagree lol. I work at the airport, so I agree theres loopholes to bypass security or the agent isnt that careful bc they’re overworked esp at my busy airport LAX. Where I disagree is tsa’s arent paid alot bc in california TSA’s make the highest amt of money in the airport after flight attendants & pilots. Im a check in agent & we make minimum compared to them.
The last thing you want at an airport is, a broken down X-ray machine.
The woman that allowed the bag thru against policy felt bullied ?? Then call security....
David Burke could just move to another state with his family and with the remaining money. Starting a new life is better than committing THAT... Or he could just unalive his boss at night near his house, but not on a plane😢
How can an employee who's been fired still keep their credentials?? Why weren't they forced to give them up at the time of termination? That's the biggest no-brainer ever.
Bc something like that never happened before. Sadly in Aviation everythings regulated after something happens. If we get fired now, we have to IMMEDIATELY turn in our security badge (I work at the airport) In our trainings we HAD to watch a video about this flight & had an examination about this exact incident, why we turn in our badges & how it changed regulations
Does anyone realize they say the same few words in every episode? Like “the worst disaster in…” or “the most devastating disaster in…” but then they change it up a little like “the worst accident in a decade” “the worst disaster in LA” etc etc
I been binging these the last few days and I was just thinking that 😂 every single one is the worst disaster in aviation history
@@vaniiboo SAME! I've noticed it too haha
They do it for dramatic effect
Mr ballin does the exact same thing every episode is the most horrific thing he's ever heard of lol
They really should mention that at the end of that sentence “at that time”
I was in Frankfurt Germany once boarding a Lufthansa flight to Atlanta. There was a bomb threat called in and they put all the luggage on the ground and everyone had to point out their luggage and then board the plane and only then was your luggage loaded. This way if you had something that was going to blow up in your bags, you were damn sure going to have a front row seat to the event. Thankfully, nothing blew up but it's a sickening feeling knowing a bomb threat was called in on the plane you're ridingon. 😂😅
I’d miss my flight if I knew that!
Seems rather dubious if you ask me.
I work at LAX and theres a bomb threat every few months! 98% of the time its a false alarm but every time it happens its a hassle bc every bag, passenger, worker etc we ALL exit the airport & stand outside until its investigated thoroughly.
This show is insanely well made and captivating, top production. I'm used to CZcamsrs analyzing air disasters and while they do a great job with the tools they have, it doesn't come close to this level.
3:06 I thought pilots couldn't wear glasses. They had to have 20/20 vision 🤔
For the life of me, I'll never, ever, understand why passengers use aircrafts to transport all sorts of household products. Get to your home, then take your car, or the bus, or a cab, go to a store and buy your freaking cleaning products and go back home. Don't take an airplane to do basic shopping!
Big mistake!!!Employees should be scanned too.
I feel kind of sorry for that airline employee who allowed that bag with the bomb through when she broke the rule. She is responsible for all those deaths. She must feel so guilty and can never escape it. I wouldnt want to be in her shoes.
Feel sorry? Just do your job wouldn’t have happened she’s a pos

Did the athlete ever say WHY he had gasoline in bleach bottles?
Good question
Not long after the Air India disaster we flew Toronto to Gatwick with them. The security was horrendous, 3 security searches and the plane was gated right near the airport security fence well away from other aircraft. As we taxied out the RCMP drove along under each wing. They peeled away as we entering the runway.
A Nigerian DC-3 of OGIBUBUGUJU Airlines ( a domestic carrier) flying between the capital Lagos and Kaduna state crashed after the Captain had a stomach bacterial infection/food poisoning. He stood up in the cockpit and accidentally diarrhea on the central console causing a short circuit in the electrical system. The plane’s magnetos ( it was a piston engined radial job) failed and the aircraft made a forced landing in the jungle. INCREDIBLY!!!! Everyone survived.
You can't bring bleach on planes anymore either

Why was it ever allowed on a plane in the first place?
I just checked, no carry on or checked. Wow.
@@mntryjoseph1961people travel with brands they prefer for clothes washin. Allergies do exist ya know.
I worked for the company that handled Air India's cargo. We got a transfer of diplomatic cargo, and it was run out to the aircraft and loaded onto the last LD-3 going into the belly. The rest is history. Dip mail is MUST GO on the first available so as soon as we got it, it was in the jeep and off to Terminal 2 at Pearson. No one had a chance to look at it or even think about in Toronto.

The theory doesn't explain how gasoline got into the bleach bottle...wtf? Was there no real investigation into that? If that guy put gas in the bottle or knew there was gas in the bottle, he should have been at least somewhat legally responsible.
That's the things. They don't know if he knew. That why there was 6 separate trials.
@@Darthjacob-xg9sm that's so strange the urge to need 6 separate trials and not discover the simple fact that he brought 2 bottles of bleach with gasoline.
For me it's very clear: it was intended with someone else inside the plane.
It's plausible investigators doesn't know why or how, but the fact still remais ....
You are the only responsable to bring gasoline.
I hope the ticket agent from the second story was fired.

Okay, I know this is a serious documentary, but I just can't ignore how *extremely stock-sounding* those gunshots are.

Canadian Govt + Khalistan bombers = Air India 182. An alert was issued a month ago for this kinda of activity, but the OFC Canadian government ignored it.

I work at LAX as a check in agent for an Airline. Theres a “secret passageway” for employees to use that bypasses TSA. Only Check in agents are allowed to use this passage w/ a security badge bc we don’t fly with passengers we check them in and board our flights.
Most of us use this path bc LAX is extremely busy & its a hassle for us to wait in long TSA lines, especially when we need to board on time. Im just now realizing that this isn’t a good thing, bc even though were thoroughly screened to get a job like this, u never know whose on the verge of “snapping” & doing something as horrific as this.
We are so goofy with our false sense of security you guys realize when I worked for Everts as the person who just answered the phone... Employees like McDonald's employees we just go in the airport... We can go through any door... We have no reason to be in that airport in Anchorage Alaska but we can go through the airport and no issue whatsoever... I found myself in some places I'm like man if I had nefarious intentions... We're not going to stop people who are motivated all we are doing is inconveniencing ourselves for false sense of security

Its insane how easy it was to hijack a plane
As a frequent flyer from Canada, I can tell you that Canadian security was lax in the 1960s, 1970s and 1980s up and until 1985 after the Air India disaster. I believe the politically correct nature of Anglo-Canadians that did not want to offend, as the segment clearly shows and the incompetence of security agents, contributed to the flights tragic demise. What the video does show is that 37 years later, an old suspect of the bombing, Ripudaman Singh Malik, who was acquitted in 2005, was shot and killed in Surrey, B.C., in 2022. This whole investigation cost the Canadian Tax payer over $130 million. Supreme Court of Canada Justice John C. Major. tore, in 2010, into the Canadian government and its "wholly deficient" agencies. He stated that failure to prevent the bombing was "inexcusable," CSIS (Canadian CIA) was "ineffective" and noted a "lax security culture" at airports. The RCMP "failed" to protect threatened witnesses. Major could not understand why CSIS deleted its wiretap tapes: "Inconceivable, incomprehensible, indefensible, incompetence," he had written in a 3200 page report. I believe that in 2024, the "lax security culture" may still be present in major Canadian airports (YUL, YYC, YYZ and YVR). The US government forced Canada to drastically apply security measures and cordon-off sections of Canadian airports with US bound flights after 9/11 at an exuberant cost for both physical and electronic security improvements and modernization, which Canadians and international passengers had to pay airport improvement fees. No incidents since 1985 and the chances of such an incident happening again are very low BUT never Zero.
All the more reasons why I would never set foot on an airplane!

Insider threat is still very real. Any airline employee, with even marginal intelligence, can still get a weapon on a plane if that's their intent.
You’d be surprised that security is still not that tight at airports in regards to their employees. As someone who used to work in the ramp, at a smaller city airport, we didn’t have to go through security. I think some ramp agents didn’t have to go through security in larger airports either because a few years ago, ramp agents out of ATL were smuggling guns on Delta flights.
This is 2024. All planes must record video.
It shld be noted that in case of Taiwanese guy who caused the bottles of gasoline to be brought on board, he was originally found guilty n sentenced to ten years in prison. Yes, he was found not guilty after an appeal, but originally was found guilty.
What appeal? He don't know it was gasoline? Who brought the bottles? Him......then he is GUILTY
Fico impressionado com o nível de profissionalismo dos investigadores de acidentes aéreos. Em meio a tantos destroços conseguiram encontrar o revólver e mais tarde identificar o terrorista. Esse tipo de conduta profissional deveria existir em muitas outras profissões.

The 3rd incident of the athele.. athelete was guilty regardless. We r responsible for our luggages.
He planned it as evidenced by: 1. he disclosed to the security check point that it was cleaning solution - but investigators found out it was gasoline.
2. athlete said to the court that he didnt know that his relatives added cleaning solution in his luggage - yet he sounded he knew it was in his luggage because he disclosed at the check point why he had them. (Cant he buy cleaning stuff at his destination?).
Also the security check point officer didnt do his job correctly.
