Boeing Tri 7 carrying 239 passengers is 00:00:16.800 --> 00:00:19.670 somewhere over the South China Sea the 00:00:19.680 --> 00:00:23.150 weather is clear the flight is normal 00:00:23.160 --> 00:00:26.150 and then the aircraft vanishes no 00:00:26.160 --> 00:00:29.749 warning no distress call 1 second it's 00:00:29.759 --> 00:00:32.709 there and the next it's gone minutes 00:00:32.719 --> 00:00:35.790 turn to hours the plane doesn't land in 00:00:35.800 --> 00:00:38.990 Beijing no one can reach the pilots 00:00:39.000 --> 00:00:41.029 families are waiting at the airport 00:00:41.039 --> 00:00:43.590 watching arrival boards that never 00:00:43.600 --> 00:00:46.470 update by morning officials confirmed 00:00:46.480 --> 00:00:49.869 the unthinkable flight 370 is 00:00:49.879 --> 00:00:53.590 missing then the calls started a father 00:00:53.600 --> 00:00:55.750 waiting at the airport dialed his son's 00:00:55.760 --> 00:00:58.790 number over and over refusing to believe 00:00:58.800 --> 00:01:01.869 the silence a mother in Beijing called 00:01:01.879 --> 00:01:04.390 her daughter's phone dozens of times 00:01:04.400 --> 00:01:07.950 only to hear it ring not voicemail not 00:01:07.960 --> 00:01:09.350 dead 00:01:09.360 --> 00:01:12.789 ringing for days after The Disappearance 00:01:12.799 --> 00:01:15.230 family members reported the same thing 00:01:15.240 --> 00:01:17.469 their loved On's phones still rang when 00:01:17.479 --> 00:01:20.870 called no one picked up no one answered 00:01:20.880 --> 00:01:23.950 but the signal was there until suddenly 00:01:23.960 --> 00:01:27.590 it wasn't what does that mean no one 00:01:27.600 --> 00:01:30.630 knows but for those families it wasn't 00:01:30.640 --> 00:01:33.190 just the loss that haunted them it was 00:01:33.200 --> 00:01:35.950 the idea that for a brief time someone 00:01:35.960 --> 00:01:39.030 or something still had those phones and 00:01:39.040 --> 00:01:41.270 that's when the world realized this 00:01:41.280 --> 00:01:43.830 wasn't just a missing plane this was a 00:01:43.840 --> 00:01:45.870 mystery that defied everything we knew 00:01:45.880 --> 00:01:49.590 about aviation technology and reality 00:01:49.600 --> 00:01:52.749 itself but what happens next only 00:01:52.759 --> 00:01:55.230 deepens the mystery because this isn't 00:01:55.240 --> 00:01:57.830 just a missing plane it's a ghost flight 00:01:57.840 --> 00:02:00.749 that kept moving a search that spiraled 00:02:00.759 --> 00:02:03.469 into the most expensive investigation in 00:02:03.479 --> 00:02:06.350 aviation history and a case so 00:02:06.360 --> 00:02:09.190 unsolvable some believe we may never be 00:02:09.200 --> 00:02:11.790 allowed to know the full 00:02:11.800 --> 00:02:14.589 [Music]

00:02:35.949 keeps flying unseen unheard moving like 00:02:35.959 --> 00:02:40.309 a ghost across the sky and then silence 00:02:40.319 --> 00:02:44.070 no wreckage is found no bodies no 00:02:44.080

hijacked was it a cover up was 00:03:10.319 --> 00:03:13.470 something far stranger at play but 00:03:13.480 --> 00:03:15.070 here's the part that no one wants to 00:03:15.080 --> 00:03:17.430 talk about this isn't just about a 00:03:17.440 --> 00:03:20.270 missing plane this is a story about the 00:03:20.280 --> 00:03:21.949 cracks in reality 00:03:21.959 --> 00:03:25.630 itself because Flight MH370 didn't just 00:03:25.640 --> 00:03:30.220 disappear it was erased 00:03:30.230 --> 00:03:54.990 [Music] 00:03:55.000 --> 00:03:57.750 a boing Tri 7 sits on the tarmac of 00:03:57.760 -->

slightly not due to turbulence but a 00:05:40.080 --> 00:05:42.870 deliberate calculated turn the 00:05:42.880 --> 00:05:45.309 transponder which broadcasts the plane's 00:05:45.319 --> 00:05:48.749

00:05:57.629 one of the most sophisticated commercial 00:05:57.639 --> 00:06:00.550 jets in the world becomes a ghost in the 00:06:00.560 --> 00:06:03.590 sky from this moment forward every 00:06:03.600 --> 00:06:05.670 single piece of evidence is a 00:06:05.680 --> 00:06:08.029 contradiction air traffic controllers 00:06:08.039 --> 00:06:11.350 scramble to reestablish Contact radio 00:06:11.360 --> 00:06:12.510 calls go 00:06:12.520 --> 00:06:15.110 unanswered ground radar searches for a 00:06:15.120 --> 00:06:18.710 signal but the plane is gone and yet the 00:06:18.720 --> 00:06:20.189 aircraft is still 00:06:20.199 --> 00:06:23.589 flying military radar designed to detect 00:06:23.599 --> 00:06:26.230 threats not commercial flights picks up 00:06:26.240 --> 00:06:28.150 on an object moving erratically across 00:06:28.160 --> 00:06:31.670 the Malaysian peninsula it turns West 00:06:31.680 --> 00:06:35.550 then Northwest then South each movement 00:06:35.560 --> 00:06:37.629 appears to be intentional as if 00:06:37.639 --> 00:06:40.909 following a carefully premeditated path 00:06:40.919 --> 00:06:43.749 the problem no one knows who's in

calls 00:06:53.560 --> 00:06:56.189 fails to respond to emergency signals 00:06:56.199 --> 00:06:58.029 and shows no sign of distress or 00:06:58.039 --> 00:06:59.629 malfunction 00:06:59.639 --> 00:07:02.550 and then without warning it simply 00:07:02.560 --> 00:07:06.230 ceases to exist no wreckage no emergency 00:07:06.240 --> 00:07:09.430 Beacon no distress calls a giant 00:07:09.440 --> 00:07:11.869 commercial airliner one of the safest 00:07:11.879 --> 00:07:13.309 and most technologically advanced 00:07:13.319 --> 00:07:15.430 aircrafts ever built has just 00:07:15.440 --> 00:07:17.869 disappeared leaving behind nothing but 00:07:17.879 --> 00:07:20.550 an Ever growing abyss of questions oh 00:07:20.560 --> 00:07:23.110 sure totally normal planes go off grid 00:07:23.120 --> 00:07:25.469 all the time and just take casual 00:07:25.479 --> 00:07:28.110 midnight Joy rides across restricted 00:07:28.120 --> 00:07:31.189 airspace before Vanishing into the void 00:07:31.199 --> 00:07:32.629 happens every 00:07:32.639 --> 00:07:35.589 Thursday right and here's where it gets 00:07:35.599 --> 00:07:38.350 even weirder every official explanation 00:07:38.360 --> 00:07:40.710 contradicts itself the more you 00:07:40.720 --> 00:07:43.309 investigate this case the less it makes 00:07:43.319 --> 00:07:45.710 sense because this wasn't a simple 00:07:45.720 --> 00:07:48.029 accident this wasn't a case of bad 00:07:48.039 --> 00:07:50.710 weather or mechanical failure something 00:07:50.720 --> 00:07:53.430 happened on that flight and whoever was 00:07:53.440 --> 00:07:55.629 responsible they knew exactly what they 00:07:55.639 --> 00:07:57.590 were doing 00:07:57.600 --> 00:08:09.869 [Music] 00:08:09.879 --> 00:08:12.749 the moment Flight MH370 vanishes from 00:08:12.759 --> 00:08:16.790 civilian radar a global Manhunt begins 00:08:16.800 --> 00:08:18.950 but the deeper investigators dig the 00:08:18.960 --> 00:08:22.029 more impossible this case becomes at 00:08:22.039 --> 00:08:24.510 first officials focus on the South China 00:08:24.520 --> 00:08:27.390 Sea the last known position before all 00:08:27.400 --> 00:08:30.629 contact was lost emergency response 00:08:30.639 --> 00:08:33.870 teams are deployed scanning the waters 00:08:33.880 --> 00:08:36.909 every available radar feed is reviewed 00:08:36.919 --> 00:08:38.829 Pilots are instructed to report any 00:08:38.839 --> 00:08:42.550 unusual sightings and yet nothing no 00:08:42.560 --> 00:08:46.710 debris no wreckage not even an oil slick 00:08:46.720 --> 00:08:48.710 it's as if the plane never 00:08:48.720 --> 00:08:51.870 existed then just as confusion turns to 00:08:51.880 --> 00:08:54.230 panic the military officials released 00:08:54.240 --> 00:08:57.150 something chilly while civilian radar 00:08:57.160 --> 00:09:01.150 lost track of MH370 almost immediately 00:09:01.160 --> 00:09:04.590 Malaysia's military radar it didn't for 00:09:04.600 --> 00:09:06.949 nearly an hour after disappearing the 00:09:06.959 --> 00:09:09.190 aircraft was still in the air flying a 00:09:09.200 --> 00:09:11.990 completely different route instead of 00:09:12.000 --> 00:09:14.389 continuing toward Beijing it made a 00:09:14.399 --> 00:09:17.190 sharp turn west crossed back over 00:09:17.200 --> 00:09:19.710 Malaysia then veered toward the and 00:09:19.720 --> 00:09:20.670 demand 00:09:20.680 --> 00:09:23.150 sea it passed over military 00:09:23.160 --> 00:09:26.269 installations changed altitude radically 00:09:26.279 --> 00:09:28.949 and then without a word it vanished from 00:09:28.959 --> 00:09:32.230 military radar too the only thing more 00:09:32.240 --> 00:09:34.910 shocking than the flight path the fact 00:09:34.920 --> 00:09:38.150 that no one stopped it no big deal just 00:09:38.160 --> 00:09:40.670 a commercial airliner making a casual 00:09:40.680 --> 00:09:43.509 detour across multiple military zones 00:09:43.519 --> 00:09:45.790 disabling its tracking systems and 00:09:45.800 --> 00:09:48.310 ghosting into the night happens all the 00:09:48.320 --> 00:09:51.110 time right that's what makes it so 00:09:51.120 --> 00:09:54.389 bizarre this is a boing trip 7 one of 00:09:54.399 --> 00:09:56.110 the most advanced commercial jets in the 00:09:56.120 --> 00:09:58.710 world it's not some tiny private plane 00:09:58.720 --> 00:10:02.030 that just slipped under radar the fact 00:10:02.040 --> 00:10:04.269 that no immediate military response was 00:10:04.279 --> 00:10:07.790 triggered that's a 00:10:07.800 --> 00:10:10.870 problem officials now scramble to 00:10:10.880 --> 00:10:13.509 recalculate the search area originally 00:10:13.519 --> 00:10:15.829 centered in the South China Sea is 00:10:15.839 --> 00:10:17.350 nowhere near where the plane was 00:10:17.360 --> 00:10:18.230 actually 00:10:18.240 --> 00:10:21.550 heading and then comes another twist 00:10:21.560 --> 00:10:25.350 satellite data like most modern aircraft 00:10:25.360 --> 00:10:28.750 MH370 was equipped with sacom terminal 00:10:28.760 --> 00:10:30.310 allowing it to communicate with a 00:10:30.320 --> 00:10:33.230 satellite Network even when out of radar 00:10:33.240 --> 00:10:35.949 range after the plane vanished the 00:10:35.959 --> 00:10:38.949 terminal briefly shut off and then turn 00:10:38.959 --> 00:10:43.310 back on for the next 6 hours MH370 00:10:43.320 --> 00:10:46.230 continued to send automated pings to the 00:10:46.240 --> 00:10:47.949 satellite confirming it was still 00:10:47.959 --> 00:10:51.069 operational but providing no location 00:10:51.079 --> 00:10:55.069 data at 8:19 a.m. long after it should 00:10:55.079 --> 00:10:58.030 have reached Beijing one final satellite 00:10:58.040 --> 00:11:01.750 signal is received then nothing no 00:11:01.760 --> 00:11:04.870 distress call no emergency Beacon no 00:11:04.880 --> 00:11:07.590 sign of an impact just a plane that flew 00:11:07.600 --> 00:11:10.750 for hours past its destination before 00:11:10.760 --> 00:11:12.150 ceasing to 00:11:12.160 --> 00:11:15.509 exist and here's the kicker by using the 00:11:15.519 --> 00:11:18.030 time delay in those satellite signals 00:11:18.040 --> 00:11:20.230 analysts could estimate the aircraft's 00:11:20.240 --> 00:11:23.350 possible location at each ping what they 00:11:23.360 --> 00:11:26.790 found was shocking MH370 was nowhere 00:11:26.800 --> 00:11:29.470 near where anyone had been searching 00:11:29.480 --> 00:11:32.110 instead it was following a path deep 00:11:32.120 --> 00:11:34.350 into the southern Indian Ocean one of 00:11:34.360 --> 00:11:36.550 the most remote Uncharted places on 00:11:36.560 --> 00:11:39.790 Earth which raises the question who was 00:11:39.800 --> 00:11:42.389 flying this plane and why were they 00:11:42.399 --> 00:11:44.710 taking it somewhere no one would ever 00:11:44.720 --> 00:11:47.870 find it oh I don't know Ralph maybe they 00:11:47.880 --> 00:11:51.150 were just craving some extreme Solitude 00:11:51.160 --> 00:11:53.350 you know because tropical island 00:11:53.360 --> 00:11:55.750 getaways are so 00:11:55.760 --> 00:11:58.470 mainstream either way here's what we now 00:11:58.480 --> 00:12:00.030 know for sure 00:12:00.040 --> 00:12:02.949 Flight MH370 didn't crash immediately 00:12:02.959 --> 00:12:05.550 after losing contact someone or 00:12:05.560 --> 00:12:07.910 something was guiding it the only 00:12:07.920 --> 00:12:10.730 question is toward 00:12:10.740 --> 00:12:22.590 [Music] 00:12:22.600 --> 00:12:25.189 what The Disappearance of Malaysia 00:12:25.199 --> 00:12:26.629 Airlines flight 00:12:26.639 --> 00:12:29.310 MH370 triggered the most expensive 00:12:29.320 --> 00:12:31.949 exhaustive search effort in aviation 00:12:31.959 --> 00:12:34.509 history but despite years of scanning 00:12:34.519 --> 00:12:37.269 the ocean analyzing satellite data and 00:12:37.279 --> 00:12:38.829 deploying some of the most advanced 00:12:38.839 --> 00:12:42.110 technology in the world nothing not a 00:12:42.120 --> 00:12:44.790 single confirmed sighting no distress 00:12:44.800 --> 00:12:50.310 signals no blackbox no bodies just gone 00:12:50.320 --> 00:12:52.949 the initial search began where MH370 was 00:12:52.959 --> 00:12:55.710 last seen on radar over the South China 00:12:55.720 --> 00:12:58.590 Sea but as the days dragged on it became 00:12:58.600 --> 00:13:01.990 clear that no wreckage was there instead 00:13:02.000 --> 00:13:04.350 the focus shifted West toward the 00:13:04.360 --> 00:13:07.870 Andaman sea the straight of Mala and 00:13:07.880 --> 00:13:10.069 Beyond then the Malaysian military 00:13:10.079 --> 00:13:12.870 dropped the bombshell while civilian air 00:13:12.880 --> 00:13:15.230 traffic control lost track of 00:13:15.240 --> 00:13:18.150 MH370 military radar recorded something 00:13:18.160 --> 00:13:20.750 different the plane had suddenly turned 00:13:20.760 --> 00:13:23.670 West cutting across Malaysia skimming 00:13:23.680 --> 00:13:26.230 the northern tip of Indonesia before 00:13:26.240 --> 00:13:29.350 Vanishing into the Indian Ocean 00:13:29.360 --> 00:13:31.910 this wasn't a plane crashing this was a 00:13:31.920 --> 00:13:34.949 plane deliberately changing course that 00:13:34.959 --> 00:13:38.030 Revelation alone changed everything so 00:13:38.040 --> 00:13:40.509 let me get this straight an entire 00:13:40.519 --> 00:13:42.949 passenger jet pulls a U-turn over a 00:13:42.959 --> 00:13:45.550 major flight Corridor crosses military 00:13:45.560 --> 00:13:48.750 radar and no one scrambles a jet no 00:13:48.760 --> 00:13:51.870 interception no alert either someone was 00:13:51.880 --> 00:13:54.150 asleep at the controls or this wasn't 00:13:54.160 --> 00:13:56.910 meant to be stopped it's worse than that 00:13:56.920 --> 00:13:59.629 window because if this was a cat trophic 00:13:59.639 --> 00:14:01.790 failure why did it keep flying for 00:14:01.800 --> 00:14:04.829 nearly 7 hours why didn't anyone call 00:14:04.839 --> 00:14:07.829 for help and why did the Malian military 00:14:07.839 --> 00:14:10.389 sit on this information for days before 00:14:10.399 --> 00:14:13.829 revealing it after military radar lost 00:14:13.839 --> 00:14:17.749 track of MH370 near the adaman sea 00:14:17.759 --> 00:14:20.430 investigators turned to satellite data a 00:14:20.440 --> 00:14:22.030 last stitched effort to locate the 00:14:22.040 --> 00:14:24.670 missing plane and here's where things 00:14:24.680 --> 00:14:27.470 got stranger the mysterious satellite 00:14:27.480 --> 00:14:29.430 handshake 00:14:29.440 --> 00:14:32.350 all modern airliners including the tri 7 00:14:32.360 --> 00:14:34.870 Boeing are equipped with a satcom 00:14:34.880 --> 00:14:37.350 terminal a satellite communication 00:14:37.360 --> 00:14:40.470 system that transmits maintenance data 00:14:40.480 --> 00:14:42.269 messages and status 00:14:42.279 --> 00:14:45.629 updates before MH370 disappeared from 00:14:45.639 --> 00:14:49.150 radar the sacom system suddenly cut out 00:14:49.160 --> 00:14:52.389 it was dead and then 3 minutes later 00:14:52.399 --> 00:14:55.590 something happened the satcom system 00:14:55.600 --> 00:14:58.829 reconnected oh that's cute so the satcom 00:14:58.839 --> 00:15:01.910 Sy system just happens to go dark right 00:15:01.920 --> 00:15:04.230 when the plane vanishes then magically 00:15:04.240 --> 00:15:06.829 reconnects minutes later yeah that's not 00:15:06.839 --> 00:15:09.350 a malfunction that's a reset somebody 00:15:09.360 --> 00:15:11.790 flipped a switch that's exactly the 00:15:11.800 --> 00:15:14.230 problem the only way the satcom system 00:15:14.240 --> 00:15:16.550 should have shut down is if it lost 00:15:16.560 --> 00:15:19.870 power or was turned off manually so why 00:15:19.880 --> 00:15:21.470 did it suddenly come 00:15:21.480 --> 00:15:24.310 back after that the plane stopped 00:15:24.320 --> 00:15:27.150 transmitting messages but it still sent 00:15:27.160 --> 00:15:29.629 seven automated signals exchanged 00:15:29.639 --> 00:15:31.910 between the aircraft and the inmat 00:15:31.920 --> 00:15:35.309 satellite orbiting 22,000 Mi above the 00:15:35.319 --> 00:15:36.230 Indian 00:15:36.240 --> 00:15:39.030 Ocean these pings didn't contain GPS 00:15:39.040 --> 00:15:40.910 coordinates but they did reveal 00:15:40.920 --> 00:15:43.150 something critical the plane was still 00:15:43.160 --> 00:15:45.350 flying for at least 6 more 00:15:45.360 --> 00:15:48.749 hours using the timing of these signals 00:15:48.759 --> 00:15:51.230 investigators calculated seven possible 00:15:51.240 --> 00:15:53.749 locations along a trajectory stretching 00:15:53.759 --> 00:15:56.150 from Central Asia to the deep southern 00:15:56.160 --> 00:15:59.230 Indian Ocean the final ping came came at 00:15:59.240 --> 00:16:03.030 8:19 a.m. local time nearly 7 hours 00:16:03.040 --> 00:16:05.990 after takeoff and then 00:16:06.000 --> 00:16:09.590 nothing MH370 had reached the end of its 00:16:09.600 --> 00:16:12.829 Journey but where let me guess the 00:16:12.839 --> 00:16:14.870 search teams went straight to that last 00:16:14.880 --> 00:16:18.150 no not and found it instantly right case 00:16:18.160 --> 00:16:22.110 closed pack it up everybody go home not 00:16:22.120 --> 00:16:24.670 even close because even though they had 00:16:24.680 --> 00:16:27.350 a probable Impact Zone the search team 00:16:27.360 --> 00:16:30.670 still came up empty-handed 00:16:30.680 --> 00:16:33.470 with no distress calls no wreckage in 00:16:33.480 --> 00:16:35.509 only satellite data suggesting the plane 00:16:35.519 --> 00:16:38.309 went down in the Indian Ocean an 00:16:38.319 --> 00:16:40.350 international team launched what would 00:16:40.360 --> 00:16:42.030 later become the largest and most 00:16:42.040 --> 00:16:44.629 expensive deep sea search in history the 00:16:44.639 --> 00:16:46.509 Australian government took charge of the 00:16:46.519 --> 00:16:49.749 operation deploying ships aircraft and 00:16:49.759 --> 00:16:52.030 underwater drones to scan the ocean 00:16:52.040 --> 00:16:54.590 floor more than 00:16:54.600 --> 00:16:59.030 46,2 32 square mil of seabed were mapped 00:16:59.040 --> 00:17:01.749 searched an area nearly half the size of 00:17:01.759 --> 00:17:04.990 the United Kingdom autonomous submarines 00:17:05.000 --> 00:17:07.870 and sonar equipped vessels spent months 00:17:07.880 --> 00:17:11.150 combing The Depths and still nothing of 00:17:11.160 --> 00:17:13.590 course we can find a single lost 00:17:13.600 --> 00:17:16.870 shipwreck from 500 years ago buried 00:17:16.880 --> 00:17:19.590 under centuries of ocean debris but we 00:17:19.600 --> 00:17:22.029 can't find a giant modern airliner that 00:17:22.039 --> 00:17:23.510 went missing in 00:17:23.520 --> 00:17:27.870 2014 sounds legit and it gets worse 00:17:27.880 --> 00:17:30.150 because if the official data was right 00:17:30.160 --> 00:17:32.110 they should have found something but 00:17:32.120 --> 00:17:35.029 they didn't which means either the plane 00:17:35.039 --> 00:17:37.549 didn't crash where they think it did or 00:17:37.559 --> 00:17:39.909 something is missing from the official 00:17:39.919 --> 00:17:42.029 record that's when a new piece of 00:17:42.039 --> 00:17:44.950 evidence surfaced 00:17:44.960 --> 00:17:47.390 literally after more than a year of dead 00:17:47.400 --> 00:17:50.190 ends the first tangible evidence finally 00:17:50.200 --> 00:17:55.590 washed the shore on July 29th 2015 a 2m 00:17:55.600 --> 00:17:58.430 long Wing fragment called a flaperon was 00:17:58.440 --> 00:18:00.630 discovered on the shores of Reunion 00:18:00.640 --> 00:18:03.230 Island a small French territory in the 00:18:03.240 --> 00:18:04.430 Western Indian 00:18:04.440 --> 00:18:07.710 Ocean tests confirmed it belonged to 00:18:07.720 --> 00:18:10.350 MH370 and just like that the theory 00:18:10.360 --> 00:18:13.870 shifted again if the plane crashed in 00:18:13.880 --> 00:18:16.310 the Indian Ocean why wasn't more debris 00:18:16.320 --> 00:18:20.390 found sooner why did it take 16 months 00:18:20.400 --> 00:18:22.470 for even a single piece to 00:18:22.480 --> 00:18:24.789 appear and why were so many other 00:18:24.799 --> 00:18:27.230 potential debris sightings dismissed or 00:18:27.240 --> 00:18:30.149 ignored okay let's do some basic math 00:18:30.159 --> 00:18:33.430 plane crashes big debris field ocean 00:18:33.440 --> 00:18:36.789 currents move fast but somehow we only 00:18:36.799 --> 00:18:38.750 get a couple of confirmed Parts 00:18:38.760 --> 00:18:40.950 scattered years later and nothing from 00:18:40.960 --> 00:18:43.390 the fuselage engines or passengers ever 00:18:43.400 --> 00:18:46.789 shows up sure makes perfect 00:18:46.799 --> 00:18:49.789 sense in the years that followed more 00:18:49.799 --> 00:18:51.750 debris turned up on beaches across 00:18:51.760 --> 00:18:54.750 Africa and the Indian Ocean pieces of 00:18:54.760 --> 00:18:57.830 the wing and engine cowling and even 00:18:57.840 --> 00:19:00.669 parts of the cabinet interior were found 00:19:00.679 --> 00:19:02.750 but something was missing the black 00:19:02.760 --> 00:19:06.909 boxes the cockpit the fuselage the 00:19:06.919 --> 00:19:09.350 passengers every major plane crash in 00:19:09.360 --> 00:19:11.750 history has left an identifiable 00:19:11.760 --> 00:19:14.149 wreckage field 00:19:14.159 --> 00:19:17.750 MH370 nothing it was as if the ocean had 00:19:17.760 --> 00:19:20.909 swallowed it whole and that's why to 00:19:20.919 --> 00:19:23.310 this day people don't just believe this 00:19:23.320 --> 00:19:26.029 was a disappearance they believe it was 00:19:26.039 --> 00:19:31.510 a cover up 00:19:31.520 --> 00:19:40.990 [Music] 00:19:41.000 --> 00:19:44.310 every missing plane has passengers every 00:19:44.320 --> 00:19:47.310 case has names but Flight 00:19:47.320 --> 00:19:50.590 MH370 it wasn't just a list of Travelers 00:19:50.600 --> 00:19:52.270 it was a collection of stories 00:19:52.280 --> 00:19:54.789 connections and unanswered 00:19:54.799 --> 00:19:58.789 questions there were 227 passengers and 00:19:58.799 --> 00:20:02.390 12 crew members on board people from 14 00:20:02.400 --> 00:20:04.750 different countries all bound for 00:20:04.760 --> 00:20:07.710 Beijing business professionals families 00:20:07.720 --> 00:20:10.310 tourists but as investigators combed 00:20:10.320 --> 00:20:12.630 through the Manifest some names stood 00:20:12.640 --> 00:20:13.789 out more than 00:20:13.799 --> 00:20:16.390 others two passengers in particular 00:20:16.400 --> 00:20:17.789 raised immediate 00:20:17.799 --> 00:20:21.149 alarms when their passports were checked 00:20:21.159 --> 00:20:24.230 something was off they were stolen not 00:20:24.240 --> 00:20:26.909 misplaced not expired 00:20:26.919 --> 00:20:30.270 stolen in the wake of 911 that kind of 00:20:30.280 --> 00:20:32.110 red flag doesn't just get 00:20:32.120 --> 00:20:35.070 overlooked the two men carrying them 00:20:35.080 --> 00:20:37.990 young Iranians seeking Asylum were 00:20:38.000 --> 00:20:40.990 investigated as potential hijackers but 00:20:41.000 --> 00:20:42.950 according to authorities they weren't 00:20:42.960 --> 00:20:44.909 linked to any terrorist 00:20:44.919 --> 00:20:46.870 organizations they weren't carrying 00:20:46.880 --> 00:20:50.110 weapons and in the end they were 00:20:50.120 --> 00:20:52.990 dismissed but here's the problem if 00:20:53.000 --> 00:20:55.230 these men weren't the threat why were 00:20:55.240 --> 00:20:57.830 they on board with stolen passports and 00:20:57.840 --> 00:20:59.190 more importantly 00:20:59.200 --> 00:21:00.830 how did they get through 00:21:00.840 --> 00:21:03.190 security then there was the flight 00:21:03.200 --> 00:21:05.549 engineer one of the passengers was an 00:21:05.559 --> 00:21:07.990 experienced Aviation engineer someone 00:21:08.000 --> 00:21:09.510 with deep technical knowledge of 00:21:09.520 --> 00:21:12.950 aircraft systems he wasn't a pilot he 00:21:12.960 --> 00:21:16.909 wasn't Crew He was just there a man with 00:21:16.919 --> 00:21:19.390 the skills to interfere with an aircraft 00:21:19.400 --> 00:21:21.870 mid-flight on the most inexplicable 00:21:21.880 --> 00:21:24.590 disappearing plane in modern history and 00:21:24.600 --> 00:21:27.350 yet no major red flags were 00:21:27.360 --> 00:21:30.590 raised then when there was the cargo 00:21:30.600 --> 00:21:33.269 every flight has a manifest a list of 00:21:33.279 --> 00:21:35.909 everything in the cargo hold most of it 00:21:35.919 --> 00:21:39.590 was routine but buried in the records a 00:21:39.600 --> 00:21:43.149 shipment of lithium ion batteries 00:21:43.159 --> 00:21:45.870 doesn't sound like much right but if you 00:21:45.880 --> 00:21:48.390 know Aviation disasters you know this is 00:21:48.400 --> 00:21:49.710 a major 00:21:49.720 --> 00:21:54.390 problem UPS flight 6 in 2010 a fire 00:21:54.400 --> 00:21:56.510 caused by lithium ion batteries took 00:21:56.520 --> 00:21:59.269 down a 747 00:21:59.279 --> 00:22:02.350 Asiana Airlines flight 991 in 00:22:02.360 --> 00:22:05.990 2011 another fire another aircraft lost 00:22:06.000 --> 00:22:07.269 to burning 00:22:07.279 --> 00:22:11.110 batteries Swiss Air flight 111 in 00:22:11.120 --> 00:22:14.070 1998 electrical failure led to a fire in 00:22:14.080 --> 00:22:16.990 the cockpit knocking out crucial 00:22:17.000 --> 00:22:20.110 systems so was flight 370 another fire 00:22:20.120 --> 00:22:22.070 in the cargo hole 00:22:22.080 --> 00:22:25.390 disaster here's where it gets strange a 00:22:25.400 --> 00:22:27.190 fire like that would have taken down the 00:22:27.200 --> 00:22:29.830 plane quickly there wouldn't have been 00:22:29.840 --> 00:22:32.789 time for intentional turns silent hours 00:22:32.799 --> 00:22:35.230 of flying or satellite 00:22:35.240 --> 00:22:37.669 reconnections so either the fire theory 00:22:37.679 --> 00:22:40.110 is wrong or something even more bizarre 00:22:40.120 --> 00:22:43.310 happened on board oh sure just a couple 00:22:43.320 --> 00:22:46.269 of random guys with stolen passports a 00:22:46.279 --> 00:22:48.870 flight engineer sitting in economy and a 00:22:48.880 --> 00:22:51.750 cargo hold full of flying fire hazards 00:22:51.760 --> 00:22:54.070 what a totally normal and not at all 00:22:54.080 --> 00:22:56.510 suspicious passenger list but the 00:22:56.520 --> 00:22:58.990 biggest name of all wasn't in the cabin 00:22:59.000 --> 00:23:01.870 it was in the cockpit Captain zahari 00:23:01.880 --> 00:23:05.029 Ahmad Shaw a 53-year-old veteran pilot 00:23:05.039 --> 00:23:08.950 with 18,000 flight hours respected 00:23:08.960 --> 00:23:12.269 experienced passionate about Aviation a 00:23:12.279 --> 00:23:14.669 man who had spent three decades in the 00:23:14.679 --> 00:23:17.590 skies and yet within days of The 00:23:17.600 --> 00:23:20.269 Disappearance he wasn't just a victim he 00:23:20.279 --> 00:23:23.190 was a suspect because what they found in 00:23:23.200 --> 00:23:25.350 his home raised more questions than 00:23:25.360 --> 00:23:26.770 answers 00:23:26.780 --> 00:23:39.350 [Music] 00:23:39.360 --> 00:23:41.870 Captain Sahari Ahmad sha wasn't just a 00:23:41.880 --> 00:23:44.750 pilot he was a senior Captain a flight 00:23:44.760 --> 00:23:47.350 instructor in one of Malaysia Airlines 00:23:47.360 --> 00:23:50.549 most experienced Pilots he had flown for 00:23:50.559 --> 00:23:52.909 over 30 years and logged more than 00:23:52.919 --> 00:23:56.710 18,000 flight hours by all accounts he 00:23:56.720 --> 00:23:59.029 was a model professional 00:23:59.039 --> 00:24:00.830 so why did investigators turn their 00:24:00.840 --> 00:24:02.549 attention to him so 00:24:02.559 --> 00:24:05.630 quickly days after The Disappearance 00:24:05.640 --> 00:24:08.310 authorities searched his home what they 00:24:08.320 --> 00:24:11.750 found was disturbing a personal flight 00:24:11.760 --> 00:24:15.149 simulator not unusual for a pilot but 00:24:15.159 --> 00:24:17.230 when forensic experts dug through his 00:24:17.240 --> 00:24:19.990 hard drive they found the deleted flight 00:24:20.000 --> 00:24:23.190 path a path eerily similar to 00:24:23.200 --> 00:24:27.190 MH370 final trajectory a long route over 00:24:27.200 --> 00:24:30.149 the Indian Ocean ending in the middle of 00:24:30.159 --> 00:24:32.310 nowhere the same scenario that 00:24:32.320 --> 00:24:34.789 investigators later determined was most 00:24:34.799 --> 00:24:37.510 likely what happened to the real Flight 00:24:37.520 --> 00:24:40.590 MH370 coincidence or 00:24:40.600 --> 00:24:42.909 premeditation so a guy just happens to 00:24:42.919 --> 00:24:45.430 practice disappearing a plane into the 00:24:45.440 --> 00:24:48.950 ocean then a month later his real flight 00:24:48.960 --> 00:24:52.510 does the exact same thing seems 00:24:52.520 --> 00:24:55.350 suspicious almost too suspicious and 00:24:55.360 --> 00:24:58.830 easy I mean yeah that's insane 00:24:58.840 --> 00:25:00.990 but at the same time Pilots run all 00:25:01.000 --> 00:25:03.430 kinds of simulations it's not like he 00:25:03.440 --> 00:25:07.070 labeled it flight 370 disaster prep and 00:25:07.080 --> 00:25:09.430 if this was really a test run why keep 00:25:09.440 --> 00:25:12.070 the files at 00:25:12.080 --> 00:25:14.669 all at first the Malaysian government 00:25:14.679 --> 00:25:17.350 downplayed the discovery they insisted 00:25:17.360 --> 00:25:20.149 the simulation data proved nothing that 00:25:20.159 --> 00:25:22.070 the flight path was incomplete and 00:25:22.080 --> 00:25:25.149 possibly from separate sessions but 00:25:25.159 --> 00:25:27.269 leaked classified documents revealed 00:25:27.279 --> 00:25:30.549 something else it wasn't just a theory 00:25:30.559 --> 00:25:33.630 the deleted route was real and it wasn't 00:25:33.640 --> 00:25:35.029 the only red 00:25:35.039 --> 00:25:38.389 flag last transmission irregularity also 00:25:38.399 --> 00:25:42.310 caused some eyebrows to raised sahar's 00:25:42.320 --> 00:25:43.389 final 00:25:43.399 --> 00:25:47.230 transmission good night Malaysian 00:25:47.240 --> 00:25:51.029 370 it was missing a crucial phrase 00:25:51.039 --> 00:25:53.389 normally Pilots repeat their assigned 00:25:53.399 --> 00:25:56.029 frequency zahari did it earlier in the 00:25:56.039 --> 00:25:59.630 flight but not on this Final Call call 00:25:59.640 --> 00:26:02.549 no distress call if the plane was in 00:26:02.559 --> 00:26:05.950 trouble why no emergency signal even 00:26:05.960 --> 00:26:08.789 with an electrical fire there are backup 00:26:08.799 --> 00:26:10.950 systems even with 00:26:10.960 --> 00:26:13.029 depressurization there are seconds to 00:26:13.039 --> 00:26:16.389 react but there was nothing then the 00:26:16.399 --> 00:26:19.750 silent cockpit when the satcom system 00:26:19.760 --> 00:26:21.669 came back online 3 minutes after 00:26:21.679 --> 00:26:25.470 disappearing from radar someone had to 00:26:25.480 --> 00:26:28.470 have manually restored power that means 00:26:28.480 --> 00:26:30.510 someone in the cockpit was still in 00:26:30.520 --> 00:26:32.630 control and then there's the biggest 00:26:32.640 --> 00:26:35.389 mystery of all why did sahar's plane 00:26:35.399 --> 00:26:38.029 take a final turn over his 00:26:38.039 --> 00:26:41.710 hometown as flight 370 veered off course 00:26:41.720 --> 00:26:44.630 it passed directly over Penang Island 00:26:44.640 --> 00:26:45.510 his 00:26:45.520 --> 00:26:48.269 birthplace some investigators believe it 00:26:48.279 --> 00:26:51.310 was a final goodbye a symbolic moment 00:26:51.320 --> 00:26:53.190 before Vanishing into the 00:26:53.200 --> 00:26:55.710 unknown but here's where the theory gets 00:26:55.720 --> 00:26:58.950 shaky no history of depression 00:26:58.960 --> 00:27:01.350 zahari had no documented mental health 00:27:01.360 --> 00:27:04.230 issues no financial problems his 00:27:04.240 --> 00:27:07.269 spending habits were normal no signs of 00:27:07.279 --> 00:27:09.630 struggle his co-workers friends and 00:27:09.640 --> 00:27:11.630 family described him as calm 00:27:11.640 --> 00:27:12.789 professional and 00:27:12.799 --> 00:27:14.789 dedicated and here's something no one 00:27:14.799 --> 00:27:17.470 can explain if this was a suicide 00:27:17.480 --> 00:27:20.909 mission why fly for six more hours why 00:27:20.919 --> 00:27:22.230 not crash 00:27:22.240 --> 00:27:25.830 immediately and if it wasn't zahari then 00:27:25.840 --> 00:27:28.230 we're left with an even bigger question 00:27:28.240 --> 00:27:31.540 who the hell else could have taken 00:27:31.550 --> 00:27:43.549 [Music] 00:27:43.559 --> 00:27:46.190 control when Malaysia Airlines flight 00:27:46.200 --> 00:27:50.669 370 vanished 239 people were on board 00:27:50.679 --> 00:27:53.389 but this wasn't just any passenger list 00:27:53.399 --> 00:27:54.990 some of them had backgrounds that 00:27:55.000 --> 00:27:56.389 immediately raised 00:27:56.399 --> 00:27:58.909 eyebrows at first the Focus was on two 00:27:58.919 --> 00:28:00.830 men traveling with stolen 00:28:00.840 --> 00:28:03.110 passports when authorities discovered 00:28:03.120 --> 00:28:05.830 this it set off immediate alarm Bells 00:28:05.840 --> 00:28:08.269 could this have been hijacking but 00:28:08.279 --> 00:28:10.950 within days investigators ruled them out 00:28:10.960 --> 00:28:13.190 they were identified as Asylum Seekers 00:28:13.200 --> 00:28:15.669 looking for a way to Europe no links to 00:28:15.679 --> 00:28:17.990 terrorist organizations no history of 00:28:18.000 --> 00:28:19.070 violent 00:28:19.080 --> 00:28:21.909 extremism that left the question if this 00:28:21.919 --> 00:28:25.350 was deliberate who had the means and the 00:28:25.360 --> 00:28:27.789 motive a deeper look at the passenger 00:28:27.799 --> 00:28:29.909 list reveals something far more 00:28:29.919 --> 00:28:32.190 intriguing among those on board were 00:28:32.200 --> 00:28:34.190 employees of freescale 00:28:34.200 --> 00:28:36.549 semiconductor a tech company that 00:28:36.559 --> 00:28:39.509 specializes in advanced microchips radar 00:28:39.519 --> 00:28:42.230 technology and electronic warfare 00:28:42.240 --> 00:28:45.669 systems let's stop there for a second 00:28:45.679 --> 00:28:48.149 free scale semiconductors work isn't 00:28:48.159 --> 00:28:49.470 just everyday 00:28:49.480 --> 00:28:51.750 Electronics their expertise covers 00:28:51.760 --> 00:28:53.669 everything from classified military 00:28:53.679 --> 00:28:56.630 applications to Next Generation stealth 00:28:56.640 --> 00:28:58.669 technology some of the company's 00:28:58.679 --> 00:29:00.509 research is believed to be tied to 00:29:00.519 --> 00:29:02.870 highly Advanced defense systems radar 00:29:02.880 --> 00:29:05.950 jamming capabilities and even cyber 00:29:05.960 --> 00:29:08.870 warfare the fact that 20 of their top 00:29:08.880 --> 00:29:10.870 Engineers were on board is more than 00:29:10.880 --> 00:29:14.149 just a coincidence it's a Smoking Gun 00:29:14.159 --> 00:29:15.990 these weren't just low-level employees 00:29:16.000 --> 00:29:18.669 either some were experts in electronic 00:29:18.679 --> 00:29:20.830 warfare the kind of people who would 00:29:20.840 --> 00:29:22.990 know how to make a Boeing Triple 7 00:29:23.000 --> 00:29:26.630 disappear from radar wait hold up you're 00:29:26.640 --> 00:29:29.149 telling me that 20 engine from a company 00:29:29.159 --> 00:29:31.669 that works on Stealth Tech and military 00:29:31.679 --> 00:29:34.389 grade radar systems all just happen to 00:29:34.399 --> 00:29:37.029 be on the same flight that mysteriously 00:29:37.039 --> 00:29:39.110 vanished from every radar system on 00:29:39.120 --> 00:29:41.830 Earth sure let's pretend that's not 00:29:41.840 --> 00:29:45.509 suspicious at all exactly wend if you 00:29:45.519 --> 00:29:47.230 wanted to test how to make a plane 00:29:47.240 --> 00:29:49.630 vanish who better to have on board than 00:29:49.640 --> 00:29:52.990 the people who might actually know how 00:29:53.000 --> 00:29:55.230 then there's another layer to this the 00:29:55.240 --> 00:29:59.070 patent Theory just days after m h370 00:29:59.080 --> 00:30:01.909 disappeared a semiconductor patent was 00:30:01.919 --> 00:30:04.269 approved that named four 00:30:04.279 --> 00:30:06.470 investors those four investors were 00:30:06.480 --> 00:30:09.110 among the missing passengers with them 00:30:09.120 --> 00:30:11.870 gone the remaining patent holder with 00:30:11.880 --> 00:30:12.990 full 00:30:13.000 --> 00:30:16.310 control freescale semiconductors parent 00:30:16.320 --> 00:30:19.430 company now let's be clear there's no 00:30:19.440 --> 00:30:21.310 hard proof that this patent was the 00:30:21.320 --> 00:30:23.470 reason the plane disappeared but the 00:30:23.480 --> 00:30:27.029 timing Beyond suspicious then we have 00:30:27.039 --> 00:30:29.630 another group of P passengers Chinese 00:30:29.640 --> 00:30:32.470 intelligence figures while this hasn't 00:30:32.480 --> 00:30:35.029 been confirmed by official sources some 00:30:35.039 --> 00:30:36.430 reports suggest that certain 00:30:36.440 --> 00:30:39.190 high-ranking Chinese Nationals on board 00:30:39.200 --> 00:30:42.549 had access sensitive defense projects if 00:30:42.559 --> 00:30:44.909 this is true it raises an entirely 00:30:44.919 --> 00:30:48.669 different theory was MH370 targeted 00:30:48.679 --> 00:30:51.590 because of who was on board you know 00:30:51.600 --> 00:30:54.470 that some point this stops being a weird 00:30:54.480 --> 00:30:56.629 coincidence and starts sounding like the 00:30:56.639 --> 00:30:59.830 opening scene of a spy Thriller I mean 00:30:59.840 --> 00:31:02.549 seriously semiconductor Engineers 00:31:02.559 --> 00:31:05.269 possible defense insiders stolen 00:31:05.279 --> 00:31:07.509 passports I've seen less suspicious 00:31:07.519 --> 00:31:10.549 setups in a Jason born movie it's not 00:31:10.559 --> 00:31:12.789 just who was on the plane but what they 00:31:12.799 --> 00:31:15.430 knew what they were carrying and who 00:31:15.440 --> 00:31:18.029 might have wanted them gone and that 00:31:18.039 --> 00:31:20.389 brings us to the next question if 00:31:20.399 --> 00:31:22.950 someone wanted this flight to disappear 00:31:22.960 --> 00:31:25.550 who had the power to make that happen 00:31:25.560 --> 00:31:38.070 [Music] 00:31:38.080 --> 00:31:40.470 now that we know who was on board the 00:31:40.480 --> 00:31:42.110 next question is who had the power to 00:31:42.120 --> 00:31:44.269 make them vanish because we're not 00:31:44.279 --> 00:31:46.830 talking about an ordinary crash this was 00:31:46.840 --> 00:31:49.509 a full scale disappearance think about 00:31:49.519 --> 00:31:52.509 it planes don't just drop off the map 00:31:52.519 --> 00:31:55.070 even if every system failed modern 00:31:55.080 --> 00:31:57.269 aircrafts are built with redundancy upon 00:31:57.279 --> 00:31:58.750 redundancy 00:31:58.760 --> 00:32:00.830 if something catastrophic happened 00:32:00.840 --> 00:32:03.310 debris would have been found immediately 00:32:03.320 --> 00:32:06.669 but in this case nothing so let's break 00:32:06.679 --> 00:32:10.190 the theories down scenario one a 00:32:10.200 --> 00:32:13.629 hijacking a classic Theory maybe someone 00:32:13.639 --> 00:32:16.269 on board a passenger a crew member or 00:32:16.279 --> 00:32:18.590 even an external hijacker took control 00:32:18.600 --> 00:32:21.629 of the plane problem is the typical 00:32:21.639 --> 00:32:24.149 Hallmarks of a hijacking weren't there 00:32:24.159 --> 00:32:26.870 no distress call Pilots are trained to 00:32:26.880 --> 00:32:29.909 squawk a hijack code in seconds that 00:32:29.919 --> 00:32:31.549 didn't happen no 00:32:31.559 --> 00:32:33.629 demands if this was a traditional 00:32:33.639 --> 00:32:36.190 hijacking where was The Ransom the 00:32:36.200 --> 00:32:38.149 political statement the 00:32:38.159 --> 00:32:39.830 manifesto 00:32:39.840 --> 00:32:43.070 silence no eyewitness accounts and 00:32:43.080 --> 00:32:46.230 nearly all hijackings at some point the 00:32:46.240 --> 00:32:49.549 plane is seen or intercepted but 00:32:49.559 --> 00:32:51.909 MH370 Gone without a 00:32:51.919 --> 00:32:54.549 trace so unless this was a totally 00:32:54.559 --> 00:32:56.669 different kind of hijacking one that 00:32:56.679 --> 00:32:58.549 involved more than just taking over the 00:32:58.559 --> 00:33:00.629 plane we need to look 00:33:00.639 --> 00:33:04.310 elsewhere scenario two pilot 00:33:04.320 --> 00:33:07.990 involvement the captain zahari Ahmad sha 00:33:08.000 --> 00:33:10.990 is often at the center of this theory he 00:33:11.000 --> 00:33:12.590 was an experienced pilot with over 00:33:12.600 --> 00:33:15.629 18,000 flight hours he had a simulated 00:33:15.639 --> 00:33:18.190 flight path on his home flight simulator 00:33:18.200 --> 00:33:22.430 that eerily matched the route MH370 took 00:33:22.440 --> 00:33:24.389 some reports claim he had personal 00:33:24.399 --> 00:33:26.710 struggles before the flight including 00:33:26.720 --> 00:33:29.629 rumors of marital problems and political 00:33:29.639 --> 00:33:32.990 tensions but here's the issue no solid 00:33:33.000 --> 00:33:34.590 evidence has ever tied him to a 00:33:34.600 --> 00:33:37.310 deliberate act his mental health history 00:33:37.320 --> 00:33:40.830 was clean no radical beliefs no history 00:33:40.840 --> 00:33:43.789 of erratic Behavior the flight path on 00:33:43.799 --> 00:33:46.350 his simulator wasn't conclusive it 00:33:46.360 --> 00:33:49.149 contained multiple saved locations not 00:33:49.159 --> 00:33:51.750 necessarily a single pre-planned route 00:33:51.760 --> 00:33:54.230 right because obviously if you were 00:33:54.240 --> 00:33:56.190 going to plan a massive Aviation 00:33:56.200 --> 00:33:59.470 disaster the first thing you do is 00:33:59.480 --> 00:34:02.029 practice it on your home computer maybe 00:34:02.039 --> 00:34:03.750 print out an itinerary while you're at 00:34:03.760 --> 00:34:07.389 it exactly if this was premeditated 00:34:07.399 --> 00:34:10.310 zahari was either sloppy or the world's 00:34:10.320 --> 00:34:11.909 most unfortunate 00:34:11.919 --> 00:34:14.230 scapegoat and that leads us to the most 00:34:14.240 --> 00:34:17.669 explosive Theory scenario three a 00:34:17.679 --> 00:34:19.909 government or intelligence 00:34:19.919 --> 00:34:23.149 operation let's be blunt if you wanted 00:34:23.159 --> 00:34:25.430 to make a commercial jet vanish 00:34:25.440 --> 00:34:27.950 completely off the grid no dist stress 00:34:27.960 --> 00:34:30.750 signals no radar footprint only a 00:34:30.760 --> 00:34:32.869 handful of entities on Earth could pull 00:34:32.879 --> 00:34:35.869 that off military radar detected the 00:34:35.879 --> 00:34:38.710 plane turning West that suggests a 00:34:38.720 --> 00:34:41.109 deliberate course change not a random 00:34:41.119 --> 00:34:43.710 accident the plane's transponders were 00:34:43.720 --> 00:34:46.270 manually turned off that's not an 00:34:46.280 --> 00:34:48.950 accident either someone inside the 00:34:48.960 --> 00:34:51.790 cockpit had to do it satellite pings 00:34:51.800 --> 00:34:53.869 show the plane kept flying for 6 more 00:34:53.879 --> 00:34:57.150 hours so whatever happened it wasn't an 00:34:57.160 --> 00:34:58.430 immediate 00:34:58.440 --> 00:35:02.190 crash then there's the timing the US and 00:35:02.200 --> 00:35:04.190 China were locked in a geopolitical 00:35:04.200 --> 00:35:06.750 chess game at the time several 00:35:06.760 --> 00:35:08.630 intelligence linked passengers were on 00:35:08.640 --> 00:35:10.990 board the plane's last known Direction 00:35:11.000 --> 00:35:13.870 took it toward Diego Garcia a highly 00:35:13.880 --> 00:35:16.230 classified US military base in the 00:35:16.240 --> 00:35:19.750 Indian Ocean so let's ask the hard 00:35:19.760 --> 00:35:22.470 question some have questioned whether 00:35:22.480 --> 00:35:24.750 MH370 could have been 00:35:24.760 --> 00:35:27.430 intercepted if so was it because of who 00:35:27.440 --> 00:35:30.589 was on board what they were carrying or 00:35:30.599 --> 00:35:33.390 what they knew and if this was a cover 00:35:33.400 --> 00:35:35.990 up who had the most to lose of the world 00:35:36.000 --> 00:35:40.630 found out scenario 4 a test of advanced 00:35:40.640 --> 00:35:43.030 technology this one sounds like science 00:35:43.040 --> 00:35:45.310 fiction Until you realize the military 00:35:45.320 --> 00:35:47.390 has been working on technology that 00:35:47.400 --> 00:35:49.829 could theoretically take control of an 00:35:49.839 --> 00:35:54.109 aircraft remotely in 2007 Boeing 00:35:54.119 --> 00:35:56.510 patented a system for remote autopilot 00:35:56.520 --> 00:35:58.630 takeover this designed to be used in 00:35:58.640 --> 00:35:59.710 cases of 00:35:59.720 --> 00:36:02.950 hijackings some suspect that MH370 was 00:36:02.960 --> 00:36:05.430 taken over remotely but whether it was 00:36:05.440 --> 00:36:08.230 by government a private entity or even 00:36:08.240 --> 00:36:10.430 an unknown technology is the real 00:36:10.440 --> 00:36:13.510 question here's the bottom line no 00:36:13.520 --> 00:36:16.270 Theory perfectly explains everything but 00:36:16.280 --> 00:36:18.510 one thing is clear this wasn't just a 00:36:18.520 --> 00:36:22.030 random accident someone somewhere knows 00:36:22.040 --> 00:36:23.430 what happened to 00:36:23.440 --> 00:36:25.630 MH370 and the fact that we're still 00:36:25.640 --> 00:36:27.710 asking these questions means that don't 00:36:27.720 --> 00:36:29.730 want us to 00:36:29.740 --> 00:36:40.950 [Music] 00:36:40.960 --> 00:36:44.910 know if MH370 crashed there should be 00:36:44.920 --> 00:36:47.870 debris period a plane doesn't just hit 00:36:47.880 --> 00:36:50.950 the ocean and vanish every major air 00:36:50.960 --> 00:36:55.630 disaster Air France 447 Egypt Air 990 00:36:55.640 --> 00:37:00.510 tww 800 left behind a clear debris field 00:37:00.520 --> 00:37:03.870 wreckage was found within days or weeks 00:37:03.880 --> 00:37:04.990 yet with 00:37:05.000 --> 00:37:08.510 MH370 nothing surfaced for over a year 00:37:08.520 --> 00:37:27.750 the ocean was scoured for 463332718 00:37:27.760 --> 00:37:31.550 5 almost a year and a half after MH370 00:37:31.560 --> 00:37:34.309 vanished a 2 m long metallic object 00:37:34.319 --> 00:37:38.230 washed up on Reunion Island near 00:37:38.240 --> 00:37:41.670 Madagascar it was a flaperon part of an 00:37:41.680 --> 00:37:44.910 aircraft's Wing experts confirmed it 00:37:44.920 --> 00:37:48.109 came from a Boeing trip 7 serial numbers 00:37:48.119 --> 00:37:49.589 matched Malaysia 00:37:49.599 --> 00:37:52.150 Airlines Barnacle growth pattern 00:37:52.160 --> 00:37:54.510 suggested it had been in the ocean for 00:37:54.520 --> 00:37:58.109 months sounds definitive right except 00:37:58.119 --> 00:38:00.550 there's a problem it was the only piece 00:38:00.560 --> 00:38:03.430 of wreckage found for over a year there 00:38:03.440 --> 00:38:06.710 was no impact damage a high-speed ocean 00:38:06.720 --> 00:38:09.109 crash should have shattered the flapper 00:38:09.119 --> 00:38:11.950 on it was unusually 00:38:11.960 --> 00:38:15.349 intact compared to similar crash debris 00:38:15.359 --> 00:38:16.990 this thing looked 00:38:17.000 --> 00:38:20.870 pristine and then more debris showed 00:38:20.880 --> 00:38:24.870 up once the flaperon was found 31 00:38:24.880 --> 00:38:27.630 additional pieces of suspected wreckage 00:38:27.640 --> 00:38:30.230 washed up on beaches in Africa and the 00:38:30.240 --> 00:38:33.589 Indian Ocean a door panel a piece of the 00:38:33.599 --> 00:38:37.190 wing a seat monitor casing but here's 00:38:37.200 --> 00:38:39.630 the issue only three pieces were 00:38:39.640 --> 00:38:41.910 definitively linked to 00:38:41.920 --> 00:38:44.630 MH370 everything else 00:38:44.640 --> 00:38:47.829 unidentifiable missing serial numbers no 00:38:47.839 --> 00:38:50.630 Clear Connection to the crash and some 00:38:50.640 --> 00:38:53.670 records showed signs of fire damage 00:38:53.680 --> 00:38:55.430 that's odd considering the official 00:38:55.440 --> 00:38:58.270 narrative never included a fire 00:38:58.280 --> 00:39:01.230 so a plane vanishes into the ocean 00:39:01.240 --> 00:39:04.710 leaves no major debris field and then 00:39:04.720 --> 00:39:06.990 only after the world stops looking 00:39:07.000 --> 00:39:09.710 pieces mysteriously start washing up on 00:39:09.720 --> 00:39:12.510 beaches yeah nothing suspicious about 00:39:12.520 --> 00:39:16.230 that at all right it's as almost like 00:39:16.240 --> 00:39:18.790 someone needed us to find something just 00:39:18.800 --> 00:39:20.870 enough to confirm the crash but not 00:39:20.880 --> 00:39:23.470 enough to prove what actually 00:39:23.480 --> 00:39:26.470 happened investigators used Oceanic 00:39:26.480 --> 00:39:27.950 drift models 00:39:27.960 --> 00:39:31.030 to explain how debris could end up 00:39:31.040 --> 00:39:33.589 thousands of miles from the search area 00:39:33.599 --> 00:39:36.069 the idea the plane crashed in the 00:39:36.079 --> 00:39:39.030 southern Indian ocean currents carry the 00:39:39.040 --> 00:39:42.470 debris Westward a year later it washes 00:39:42.480 --> 00:39:46.030 up in Africa but here's the problem no 00:39:46.040 --> 00:39:48.030 confirmed wreckage was ever found in the 00:39:48.040 --> 00:39:50.870 main search Zone if large parts of the 00:39:50.880 --> 00:39:53.430 plane drifted that far why weren't 00:39:53.440 --> 00:39:55.829 smaller pieces like seed cushions or 00:39:55.839 --> 00:39:58.270 luggage found in great 00:39:58.280 --> 00:40:00.430 numbers the exact location of the 00:40:00.440 --> 00:40:03.470 flaperon discovery was uncannily close 00:40:03.480 --> 00:40:05.150 to where models 00:40:05.160 --> 00:40:08.710 predicted almost too perfect some 00:40:08.720 --> 00:40:10.510 investigators outright suggested the 00:40:10.520 --> 00:40:13.030 flaperon was 00:40:13.040 --> 00:40:15.910 planted the lack of major debris raises 00:40:15.920 --> 00:40:19.510 another theory what if MH370 didn't just 00:40:19.520 --> 00:40:22.430 nose dive into the ocean some Pilots 00:40:22.440 --> 00:40:24.670 believe the crash was controlled a 00:40:24.680 --> 00:40:26.349 deliberate ditching would keep the 00:40:26.359 --> 00:40:29.390 fuselage intact act reducing floating 00:40:29.400 --> 00:40:31.950 debris this would explain why wreckage 00:40:31.960 --> 00:40:34.309 was found far away from the expected 00:40:34.319 --> 00:40:37.790 crash Zone but there's a major problem a 00:40:37.800 --> 00:40:39.430 controlled ditching would have left an 00:40:39.440 --> 00:40:42.589 impact signature satellites and 00:40:42.599 --> 00:40:44.750 hydrophones which are a microphone that 00:40:44.760 --> 00:40:47.630 records and detects underwater sounds 00:40:47.640 --> 00:40:50.750 never detected a crash if the pilot was 00:40:50.760 --> 00:40:54.030 trying to landed softly 00:40:54.040 --> 00:40:56.870 why every commercial aircraft has two 00:40:56.880 --> 00:41:00.829 black boxes the cockpit voice recorder 00:41:00.839 --> 00:41:04.950 CVR the flight data recorder FDR these 00:41:04.960 --> 00:41:07.870 are built to survive almost anything 00:41:07.880 --> 00:41:10.630 they emit a Locator Beacon for 30 to 40 00:41:10.640 --> 00:41:13.750 days even after that they can be found 00:41:13.760 --> 00:41:18.870 decades later in 2009 airr 447 crashed 00:41:18.880 --> 00:41:21.550 into the Atlantic the black boxes were 00:41:21.560 --> 00:41:24.950 recovered 2 years later from 13,000 ft 00:41:24.960 --> 00:41:29.870 below the surface MH 370 no black boxes 00:41:29.880 --> 00:41:32.349 no confirmed wreckage from the fuselage 00:41:32.359 --> 00:41:35.069 no major debris field we can find the 00:41:35.079 --> 00:41:38.150 Titanic's wreckage in 1985 at the bottom 00:41:38.160 --> 00:41:41.390 of the Atlantic we can pinpoint a 00:41:41.400 --> 00:41:43.670 submarine explosion from thousands of 00:41:43.680 --> 00:41:46.910 miles away but a modern jetliner with 00:41:46.920 --> 00:41:51.670 GPS transponders and black boxes nope no 00:41:51.680 --> 00:41:55.390 idea where it went totally lost that's 00:41:55.400 --> 00:41:57.790 the thing wendor nothing about this 00:41:57.800 --> 00:42:00.470 makes sense unless someone didn't want 00:42:00.480 --> 00:42:04.030 us to find it so where is 00:42:04.040 --> 00:42:06.630 MH370 the official search covered one of 00:42:06.640 --> 00:42:09.550 the largest and deepest oceans on Earth 00:42:09.560 --> 00:42:12.150 but after years of scouring the seabed 00:42:12.160 --> 00:42:15.710 they found nothing no bodies no fuselage 00:42:15.720 --> 00:42:19.270 no conclusive wreckage either the ocean 00:42:19.280 --> 00:42:21.790 swallowed the evidence whole the plane 00:42:21.800 --> 00:42:24.150 didn't crash where they think it did or 00:42:24.160 --> 00:42:26.630 the truth is being kept from us the 00:42:26.640 --> 00:42:28.549 biggest clue might be what they didn't 00:42:28.559 --> 00:42:31.630 find because if the black boxes major 00:42:31.640 --> 00:42:33.349 fuselage sections and passenger 00:42:33.359 --> 00:42:35.589 belongings are still missing after a 00:42:35.599 --> 00:42:37.790 decade it means the story we've been 00:42:37.800 --> 00:42:40.730 told is missing something 00:42:40.740 --> 00:42:52.589 [Music] 00:42:52.599 --> 00:42:55.870 too every major plane crash in history 00:42:55.880 --> 00:42:57.670 has one thing in common 00:42:57.680 --> 00:43:00.030 radar tracked until the moment it went 00:43:00.040 --> 00:43:01.710 down 00:43:01.720 --> 00:43:04.470 MH370 disappeared from civilian radar at 00:43:04.480 --> 00:43:07.829 121 a.m. military radar picked it up 00:43:07.839 --> 00:43:11.870 flying West and then it vanished again 00:43:11.880 --> 00:43:15.790 how how does a boing 7 a plane the size 00:43:15.800 --> 00:43:18.710 of a skyscraper just disappeared 00:43:18.720 --> 00:43:23.230 twice the answer radar blind spots and 00:43:23.240 --> 00:43:25.430 that's where things get 00:43:25.440 --> 00:43:29.109 weird before m M h370 dropped off the 00:43:29.119 --> 00:43:32.549 radar Air Traffic Control handed it off 00:43:32.559 --> 00:43:35.990 from koala lumur to hoi Min City in 00:43:36.000 --> 00:43:38.790 Vietnam the last words from the cockpit 00:43:38.800 --> 00:43:43.430 came at 1:19 a.m. good night Malaysian 00:43:43.440 --> 00:43:46.510 370 1 minute later the plane disappears 00:43:46.520 --> 00:43:50.030 from civilian radar silence no distress 00:43:50.040 --> 00:43:53.190 call no emergency signal nothing was it 00:43:53.200 --> 00:43:54.430 manual 00:43:54.440 --> 00:43:57.390 sabotage airliners don't just appear 00:43:57.400 --> 00:43:59.990 unless someone wants them to the planes 00:44:00.000 --> 00:44:02.910 transponder which broadcast its location 00:44:02.920 --> 00:44:06.549 were manually turned off the acars 00:44:06.559 --> 00:44:09.470 system which relays real-time aircraft 00:44:09.480 --> 00:44:11.190 data stopped 00:44:11.200 --> 00:44:13.510 transmitting even the cockpit voice 00:44:13.520 --> 00:44:16.630 recorder was wiped yeah because when I 00:44:16.640 --> 00:44:19.390 have a completely normal flight the 00:44:19.400 --> 00:44:21.190 first thing I do is turn off every 00:44:21.200 --> 00:44:23.910 tracking system kill the communications 00:44:23.920 --> 00:44:26.710 and fly into nowhere totally standard 00:44:26.720 --> 00:44:28.470 procedure 00:44:28.480 --> 00:44:31.309 exactly this wasn't a malfunction 00:44:31.319 --> 00:44:34.150 someone turned everything off on purpose 00:44:34.160 --> 00:44:36.230 and here's where it gets 00:44:36.240 --> 00:44:39.990 worse for the next 30 minutes MH370 was 00:44:40.000 --> 00:44:44.349 a ghost then military radar picked it up 00:44:44.359 --> 00:44:47.349 it had turned back over Malaysia it flew 00:44:47.359 --> 00:44:51.230 low and fast across the straight of Mala 00:44:51.240 --> 00:44:54.309 then it vanished for a second time some 00:44:54.319 --> 00:44:56.230 experts believe it was hiding in the 00:44:56.240 --> 00:44:59.230 radar shadow of another aircraft a 00:44:59.240 --> 00:45:02.910 Singapore Airlines flight s q68 was 00:45:02.920 --> 00:45:06.030 traveling nearby at the same time if 00:45:06.040 --> 00:45:09.230 MH370 flew directly beneath it their 00:45:09.240 --> 00:45:12.470 radar signatures would merge this would 00:45:12.480 --> 00:45:16.589 mask MH370 presence making it disappear 00:45:16.599 --> 00:45:17.750 as a single 00:45:17.760 --> 00:45:20.630 plane if that's true it means this 00:45:20.640 --> 00:45:24.510 wasn't just a random deviation it was 00:45:24.520 --> 00:45:28.309 calculated could MH370 have landed one 00:45:28.319 --> 00:45:30.230 Theory suggests the plane never crashed 00:45:30.240 --> 00:45:34.390 at all with its transponders off it was 00:45:34.400 --> 00:45:37.589 invisible could it have landed somewhere 00:45:37.599 --> 00:45:40.109 remote there are several air strips 00:45:40.119 --> 00:45:42.829 within flying distance of the last radar 00:45:42.839 --> 00:45:46.630 contact Diego Garcia a secret US 00:45:46.640 --> 00:45:48.430 military base in the Indian 00:45:48.440 --> 00:45:52.309 Ocean the Andaman Islands a sparsely 00:45:52.319 --> 00:45:54.309 populated region with long 00:45:54.319 --> 00:45:57.150 runways kazakistan 00:45:57.160 --> 00:45:59.069 Wild Card theory that suggested flew 00:45:59.079 --> 00:46:00.150 North 00:46:00.160 --> 00:46:02.510 undetected a commercial airliner just 00:46:02.520 --> 00:46:05.230 sneaks into a military base lands on 00:46:05.240 --> 00:46:08.549 some remote Runway and nobody notices 00:46:08.559 --> 00:46:10.829 because I'm sure the Pentagon just lets 00:46:10.839 --> 00:46:15.109 random 777s roll up unannounced hey if 00:46:15.119 --> 00:46:17.470 someone had the right clearance who's to 00:46:17.480 --> 00:46:19.270 say it wasn't 00:46:19.280 --> 00:46:21.910 planned there's one massive problem with 00:46:21.920 --> 00:46:25.670 the official story the US military sees 00:46:25.680 --> 00:46:28.549 everything the Diego Garcia a key US 00:46:28.559 --> 00:46:31.190 Military Base is located exactly where 00:46:31.200 --> 00:46:34.510 MH370 would have flown the Indian Ocean 00:46:34.520 --> 00:46:36.829 is one of the most heavily surveilled 00:46:36.839 --> 00:46:40.190 regions on Earth spy satellites military 00:46:40.200 --> 00:46:43.150 radar and classified tracking systems 00:46:43.160 --> 00:46:46.109 should have detected the plane yet the 00:46:46.119 --> 00:46:49.710 US has never released any data even when 00:46:49.720 --> 00:46:51.630 families of the passengers begged for 00:46:51.640 --> 00:46:54.950 satellite images nothing not a single 00:46:54.960 --> 00:46:57.589 frame so where did it actually 00:46:57.599 --> 00:47:00.790 go we have three possibilities it 00:47:00.800 --> 00:47:03.069 crashed exactly where they say it did 00:47:03.079 --> 00:47:05.109 but somehow we still can't find the 00:47:05.119 --> 00:47:07.470 wreckage it was hijacked and flown 00:47:07.480 --> 00:47:10.950 somewhere remote possibly even landed it 00:47:10.960 --> 00:47:13.990 was intercepted mid-flight and something 00:47:14.000 --> 00:47:16.549 happened we were never meant to know 00:47:16.559 --> 00:47:18.990 either way the radar blind spots are 00:47:19.000 --> 00:47:22.390 real MH 370's entire Final hours 00:47:22.400 --> 00:47:25.390 happened in the dark and somebody knows 00:47:25.400 --> 00:47:26.650 why 00:47:26.660 --> 00:47:39.309 [Music] 00:47:39.319 --> 00:47:42.390 a plane doesn't just disappear not in an 00:47:42.400 --> 00:47:44.069 era where satellites track every 00:47:44.079 --> 00:47:46.510 movement where military radar can detect 00:47:46.520 --> 00:47:49.870 a flock of birds from 100 miles away and 00:47:49.880 --> 00:47:51.829 where every modern airliner is built 00:47:51.839 --> 00:47:54.710 with fail safe after fail safe to ensure 00:47:54.720 --> 00:47:56.870 that even in the worst case scenario 00:47:56.880 --> 00:48:00.710 something is Left Behind and yet MH370 00:48:00.720 --> 00:48:06.069 is gone a boing 7 carrying 239 Souls 00:48:06.079 --> 00:48:07.549 vanished into the 00:48:07.559 --> 00:48:10.630 abyss 10 years later we're left with 00:48:10.640 --> 00:48:13.030 fragments pieces of debris washing 00:48:13.040 --> 00:48:16.069 ashore incomplete radar readings 00:48:16.079 --> 00:48:18.589 conflicting data and a series of 00:48:18.599 --> 00:48:21.710 explanations that never fully add up the 00:48:21.720 --> 00:48:24.910 official story tells us it was a crash a 00:48:24.920 --> 00:48:27.470 tragic unforeseen event that led a 00:48:27.480 --> 00:48:29.870 modern airliner to run out of fuel over 00:48:29.880 --> 00:48:33.510 the Indian Ocean but if that's true try 00:48:33.520 --> 00:48:35.150 telling that to the woman who sent a 00:48:35.160 --> 00:48:38.190 text to her husband at 3:00 a.m. just to 00:48:38.200 --> 00:48:40.390 say I love you and never saw the 00:48:40.400 --> 00:48:43.430 delivered check mark appear try telling 00:48:43.440 --> 00:48:45.030 that to the mother who called her son's 00:48:45.040 --> 00:48:48.230 phone for weeks after The Disappearance 00:48:48.240 --> 00:48:51.270 only for it to ring and ring and then 00:48:51.280 --> 00:48:54.349 finally go dead try telling that to the 00:48:54.359 --> 00:48:56.950 families who even a decade later still 00:48:56.960 --> 00:48:58.750 sit in front of their televisions 00:48:58.760 --> 00:49:01.030 watching every new Theory every new 00:49:01.040 --> 00:49:04.270 piece of evidence wondering if this time 00:49:04.280 --> 00:49:06.789 this time someone will finally tell them 00:49:06.799 --> 00:49:07.630 the 00:49:07.640 --> 00:49:10.870 truth but the truth never comes and 00:49:10.880 --> 00:49:14.710 maybe it never will because MH370 isn't 00:49:14.720 --> 00:49:17.030 just an unsolved mystery it's a 00:49:17.040 --> 00:49:18.829 blueprint for how things disappear in 00:49:18.839 --> 00:49:21.789 the Modern Age a world where entire 00:49:21.799 --> 00:49:24.950 stories can be Rewritten where data can 00:49:24.960 --> 00:49:28.990 be deleted black boxes can remain silent 00:49:29.000 --> 00:49:32.470 and wreckage can be found only when it's 00:49:32.480 --> 00:49:35.510 convenient you know Ralph if I wanted to 00:49:35.520 --> 00:49:37.990 make something disappear forever it 00:49:38.000 --> 00:49:40.470 wouldn't just sink it in the ocean I'd 00:49:40.480 --> 00:49:42.069 make sure no one even knew where to look 00:49:42.079 --> 00:49:43.230 in the first 00:49:43.240 --> 00:49:46.030 place and that's exactly why this still 00:49:46.040 --> 00:49:48.789 haunts us because the deeper we look the 00:49:48.799 --> 00:49:50.870 more we realize this wasn't just a 00:49:50.880 --> 00:49:54.190 tragedy because of a plane this big one 00:49:54.200 --> 00:49:57.030 of the most advanced aircraft ever built 00:49:57.040 --> 00:50:00.069 can vanish Without a Trace what else 00:50:00.079 --> 00:50:01.990 have we lost that we were never supposed 00:50:02.000 --> 00:50:04.750 to find what other Secrets have been 00:50:04.760 --> 00:50:07.589 erased from history and the final 00:50:07.599 --> 00:50:10.069 question the one that lingers long after 00:50:10.079 --> 00:50:12.950 the search teams have gone home after 00:50:12.960 --> 00:50:15.750 the families have been given no closure 00:50:15.760 --> 00:50:17.589 after the world has moved 00:50:17.599 --> 00:50:21.069 on if we ever get too close to the truth 00:50:21.079 --> 00:50:23.050 would we even know it 00:50:23.060 --> 00:50:27.190 [Music] 00:50:27.200 --> 00:50:29.309 thanks for watching I'm Ralph that's 00:50:29.319 --> 00:50:32.150 wendo who's still salty about humanity
