The Smithsonian Channel released an ****ysis of the Kobe Bryant helicopter crash basically concluding that the pilot had no clue he was flying downwards and was not paying attention to his instruments for trying to see his surroundings. Totally, preventable man.

@Intelflytrap @DodosRun @gunsnrosesgirl3 @SmithsonianChan The plant doesn’t know anything. Evolution takes a lot of individuals so even if the plant was conscious it wouldn’t know it had evolved. Just p***ing it’s genes down if it can. Apparently for this plant it’s offspring had a better chance at survival further from the parent.

@washingtonpost I was watching this great show on the Smithsonian channel called ‘Air Disasters’. It is better to be cautious. A Korean airliner was taken down by the Soviets because they said they were spies. 200 people died. Better to have a little patience than be trigger happy.

@Morbidful Smithsonian channel has a show called Air Disasters and they showed this crash as one of their episodes. This was what happened because the CG (center of gravity) was thrown off due to the itens not being secured properly inside. No way for the plane to recover after liftoff.

@lekshmikesavan @SmithsonianChan @paramountplus @pexels I don't think Twitter will care unless you a rights owner. The only way to shut them down is to alert the photographers whose work is being used, and get them to submit report. Wish there was a way to get a cl***-action going against all such accounts.
