YouTuber Accused Of Staging Plane Crash For Likes And Views

By Tyler Durden

 

The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) is investigating YouTuber and former Olympic snowboarder Trevor Jacob after he posted a video online showing him bailing out of a plane after alleged engine issues.

“The FAA is investigating this event,” the agency said. “The agency does not discuss open investigations.” 

The incident occurred in Los Padres National Forest near Cuyama, California, in November. It wasn’t until Dec. 24 when he uploaded the video onto YouTube, showing the alleged engine failure above rocky terrain. The YouTuber then opens the plane’s door and bails out with a parachute—cameras located on the plane capture the entire incident.
