BOOM! Dreamliner Nightmare

Alright Beast Crew gather 'round! You won't believe this. An Air India Boeing 787 Dreamliner went full send into a residential area right after takeoff from Ahmedabad. We’re talking a real life explosion not the fun kind we usually film for the channel. Initial reports are saying at least 241 people are gone. Seriously heavy stuff. One survivor only! Reminds me of that time I tried to eat 241 hotdogs... I barely made it. Gotta respect those odds even if it's for something so tragic.

Altitude Fail: From Sky High Dreams to Crashing Back to Earth

Apparently the plane barely got off the ground like 625 feet – that's lower than Chandler's IQ sometimes! Then BAM it started dropping faster than my subscriber count when I forget to upload for a day. FlightRadar24 says it lost altitude at a crazy speed. Whoa! This means they were 475 feet per minute closer to the ground! It's like trying to beat Karl in a race downhill… you know something bad is about to happen!

First Fatal Boeing 787 Crash NOT Ideal!

And get this: it's the FIRST EVER fatal crash for a Boeing 787 Dreamliner! Way to make history Air India... but for all the wrong reasons. The plane itself was over 11 years old. Old enough to drive but definitely not old enough to handle whatever went down. Remember kids always upgrade your gear even if it means gifting a few new Lambos to your best buddies. (wink wink).

International Whodunit: The Blame Game Begins

So everyone's pointing fingers like when I ask who ate the last slice of pizza. India is leading the investigation but the US National Transportation Safety Board is sending in the big guns too. Plus Boeing and GE Aerospace are getting involved. It’s a real international incident! Maybe we should offer them a million dollars to solve the mystery. Would make for a great video!

Condolences and Falling Stocks? What a Day!

Boeing's CEO Kelly Ortberg is saying all the right things offering support and condolences. But guess what? Boeing's stock dropped nearly 5% faster than I drop money on random acts of kindness! Air India has been trying to upgrade their fleet but sometimes… well sometimes you just gotta give everyone a free car to make things better. Okay maybe not in this case but you get the idea.

The Show Must Go On (But Seriously Let's Be Respectful)

The crash happened right before the Paris Air Show where Boeing and Airbus were supposed to announce a bunch of new orders. Awkward! It's like planning a massive party and then realizing you forgot to invite Chandler... wait no that's happened before. Anyway thoughts and prayers to everyone affected. Seriously. Even I know when to be serious. Maybe. Now back to planning our next giveaway!
