    I’m conflicted. The dark humor side of me thinks this guy was fantastic and the barrel roll shit was great. Then it’s like fuck he killed himself. Why? He seemed like an interesting dude. You never know what people are going through. Crazy that he hasn’t no experience flying and pulled that off so he is kind of a legend. The barrel roll cemented that.

    Just an example of how hard it can be to tell when another person is going through a dark time.

    Yeah...pretty damn sad, though. It makes zero difference how much attention you get, when you are dead.

    to me...it's not about attention...it's just maybe this was on his bucket list...going out with a bang instead of dangling from some rope in a hotel

    They crashed into a small island near Olympia.

    The guy said on the radio that several people were going to regret his action and that he was apologizing to them. Then he nose dived into the island.

    He probably suffered from depression. Too bad, they've go medication for that.

    Airplanes burn when they crash.

    My brother has some footage of this.

    Just the playing flying too low and looping around.
    Sad but could have been much worse. Rarely do we see a guy go haywire and not target others.

    This is like Grand Theft Auto style. Wow.

    "Hey pilot guy, you think I can pull off a barrel roll?! Fuck it, I'm gonna give it a shot."

    That is such a way to go out. Sad, but wow.
