Its a small mistake but still: its 30.000 feet per minute, not second

30.000 feet per second is about 10km/sec which is closer to speeds of meteors crashing into the earth. At those speeds, that plane crash would have had enough energy to likely wiped out the entirety of Miami.

It was 20,000 feet per minute

Where on earth did you get those numbers?

If it was travelling at a velocity of 30,000 feet per second it would have been vaporized by atmospheric heating. That's substantially faster than asteroids collide at. That works out app 20,454 mph which is considerably faster than a Apollo rocket.

Honestly, i felt the audio wasn't as bad as so many people are claiming it to be. Like yes its bad, but after seeing watching so much of palestine footage, its.... not that bad. They suffered for like 30 seconds, and then peace.

If you listen to hind rajab's audio, that thing is super devastating. Like imagine being 5 with your parents dead in the car with you, trying to explain to paramedics, imagine what those paramedics must have felt in that moment. All the agony, all the struggle. Like what thoughts did hind have while waiting for paramedics to arrive?

I think the reason this flight audio feels so scary to western audience is because, so many people have flown, and "it could be any of us", whereas hind rajab and other palestinians live in a "war torn" country. Like it happens all the time over there anyways.

This is why I like that we can edit titles.

That poor neighborhood.

Wow... I saw the hole in the ground. Very impressive. I kind of not want to ride anything that ends with a large hole in the ground.

Don’t listen to the audio. You can’t unhear it.

[–] SaharaMaleikuhm@feddit.org 5 points 2 hours ago

I didn't know it existed. Now you have basically forced my hand, I've got to listen to it now. I am morbidly curious

her last, cutoff words have been haunting me for at least an hour. and here I was thinking I was desensitized for years.

[–] EatMyPixelDust@lemmy.blahaj.zone 5 points 5 hours ago (3 children)

I listened to the recordings and I cried a little bit but it didn't seem to affect me much otherwise. Maybe there's something wrong with me.

[–] Rai@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 1 hour ago

Nahhh it’s incredibly sad, but I did not find it to be particularly bad compared to a couple others that come to mind.

[–] FeelThePower@lemmy.dbzer0.com 7 points 5 hours ago (4 children)

I sincerely wish this was the case, I'm jealous, I have been trapped in a thought loop for at least 2 hours now about consciousness and existence and the incomprehensibility of what happens after one dies. I tried to go to bed early but I just kept panicking about the idea of my heart stopping in my sleep. I don't know what's happening but I shouldn't have listened to that audio

[–] brachypelmide@lemmy.zip 2 points 4 hours ago

oh hey so it's not just me who bluescreens at the mere thought of death

As someone who's actually desensitized, it's really not that bad lol.

Lol = millennial soft-end punctuation mark. Softer than a period, but not excited like an exclamation mark. Still indicates an end of thought, unlike ellipses. Text version of a smirk, which can indicate irony rather than humor.

[–] NonconfrontationaI@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 hour ago

My bad.

actually desensitized

[–] Fallibilist@feddit.uk 4 points 5 hours ago* (last edited 3 hours ago) (1 children)

Except if you're one of the people celebrating this because a business jet was mentioned, then please do listen to the audio.

[–] Baguette@lemmy.blahaj.zone 20 points 4 hours ago (2 children)

The fuck dude? Pilot and copilot were just normal people doing their job and you can clearly tell they were in distress from the audio. It's not that hard to give an ounce of respect for them and their loved ones.

[–] BackgrndNoize@lemmy.world 1 points 24 minutes ago

I don't think anyone is celebrating the death of the pilots, I wonder if they knew the conditions were not good for flying but were forced to fly anyway

[–] Fallibilist@feddit.uk 17 points 4 hours ago

It’s not that hard to give an ounce of respect for them and their loved ones.

Which is exactly why I'm advocating for the people celebrating this to listen to said audio.
