#Final24 #JFKJr
I’m still stuck on the fact that the public disowned Jackie for remarrying after her husband DIED and not phased by JFK having affairs and even rumored to be with Marilyn Monroe. People are weird as hell 😂
Yep
Not weird, just sexist and aligning with patriarchy.
I remember people were surprised Jackie married Onassis, but I never got the impression she was publicly disowned.
Rumored? Everyone knows he and Bobby were playing musical chairs with poor Marilyn
@@keeganthorpe TY
Whoever made this video made that plane crash scene feel so real. I had the anxiety with them as the plane was going down, I can’t even imagine how scary something like that is. May John, Caroline and Lauren rest in peace.
agreed !
Killed by their own government and you're surprised..
Same!
I mean everybody knew what it was five months after And he’s one of the richest men on the planet he’s quite a bit older I mean it comes off as gross all the way around. She had enough money to go and live a beyond normal life but it wasn’t enough for her or her children so she made a smart move still comes off as gross. Mostly for the fact that she was obviously marrying a sugar daddy and partially for the fact that she has only been a widow for five months but get it while the getins good right!
I know right?!+ What their last words were ...? I'm sure God Dave our souls or the like was part +! God rest their souls in His eternal peace. Amen and all the dear souls of the faithful departed
I’m 63, I would give ANYTHING to have an America like we had back then.
I second that!
So would I.
Yes!!!
You & me both & I wasn't even born yet, but from all accounts, it was all good.
No word of Rosemary ?
My sister is a retired commercial pilot, when this happened she said it takes a special kind of arrogant optimism to fly a powerful passenger plane without an instrument rating.
👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼…all on him
Why is it allowed, reckless pilots can crash into someone’s home or a building and kill people
It was suicide, his wife and family killed his will to live. He wanted to be with Darryl Hannah but was forced to marry a person that was more to their liking.
Arrogant is a Kennedy's middle name.
First name Entitled.
If that family is American royalty...😅
So very, very sad and unfortunate and unforgettable!😮😮😮
My heart goes out to all deceased, especially for the parents losing two daughters.
I still can't believe it's been so long since the plane crash.
I've always felt the media never recognized the enormous loss the Bisset family endured..
The tradegy / deaths of these 2 women were over shadowed by JFK Jrs's death.
@@Lisa-hc3uq them 3 are ALIVEEEWERE UNDER WITNESS PROTECTION PROGRAM..BIBLICAL AND HISTORY. SOON REVEALED
That’s so sad.. Those 2 daughters were their only children. Those poor parents.
Had to go into hiding with fake death...conspiracy.
@@elainekomara8555 No, they had 3 daughters. One was not on the flight. Lauren, Lisa and Carolyn. Lauren and Lisa were twins.
A shame he wasn’t allowed to follow his passion for Drama , I will never understand how parents can shutdown their children’s dreams.
@@LaughLinesCrowsFeet you don’t actually believe he’s still alive , do you ?
@@Peaceshiet812 What a bizarre comment. He's very much DEAD.
John wanted to be a actor his mom say no😥
He Was John F Kennedy Jr. Her job was to raise him to be a great and powerful man
*shut down
So sad - for the parents who lost both of their daughters and for John's family - such a tragic end . It must have been terrifying in the last minutes. Rest their souls.
The wealthy often live very fast lives. They carries much risk.
@@lucyterrier7905 yes. Look at Barbara Hutton. She lost her only child, Lance, in a plane crash.
So sad

@@lucyterrier7905same destiny to the Italian husband of Caroline princesse of Monaco he died on his race off shore boat. Risk of rich people
Everyone absolutely loved this guy. I find it so ironic how BOTH he & his father died & everyone basically knew when & where they were when the deaths occurred! These are 2 people who will never be forgotten. Their deaths left a void that could NEVER be filled. RIP🙏🤴💔🙏🤴💔
No, his son, did nothing, whe dont love him,, his father yes
@mariannevontrapp1063 That's a pretty RUDE thing to say‼️Attorney John Kennedy was one awesome guy‼️
@morgantylerv9406. Take off your beer goggles lady, he was a self-entitled arrogant turd who happened to have good looks and a famous family history, I'll bet the 2 women in the plane didn't love him very much as they were crashing into the ocean, and I'll bet you owned every issue of George Magazine, didn't ya? the whole clan were a bunch of retards. Ralphie May got it right with what he said in his stand up.
Right? It's also a generational thing. My dad knows where he was and what he was doing when he heard JFK died. (Before I was born.) And I remember where I was and what I was doing when I heard JFK Jr. died. 😔
I think that goes with any influential death; I remember where I was when Elvis died, and I was only 9 years old.
This is still so tragic. We lived near the family in NYC and John was always so friendly and loved roller skating and riding his bike around the neighborhood always saying hello to people he recognized. That he died in such a terrible accident was just heartbreaking 💔
The ego that made him "..ride around the neighborhood.." caused him to fly when he shouldn't have.
What is egotistical about “riding around the neighbourhood “? Didn’t we all do that?
All of the. Alive.were under witness protection program
@@kshep3731 Shirtless? Columbus Circle? Might as well have a neon sign on his head reading "look at me"!!
@@kendallevans4079 What's wrong with riding around the neighbourhood? He seemed nice. Apparently he loved Daryl Hannah but his mother forced him to leave her like she forced him to drop acting and do politics. People blamed Caroline his wife for doing her nails and making the flight late but it looked like everything was going wrong that day. His wife's family sued his estate for the crash and losing their 2 daughter
As someone with ADHD, I’ve learned, in order to avoid failure, to check and double-check every detail about the planning and actual execution of every endeavor. In hindsight, it’s pretty obvious JFK Jr. also had ADHD. His relentless curiosity, his impulsivity and creativity - it’s all very familiar for anyone with ADHD.
A big symptom of ADHD is chronic lateness (definitely speaking from experience). And rushing to be on time is when we tend to make mistakes, unless we’re hyper-vigilant. This is when John Jr., already running very late when they reached the airport, made his fatal mistakes: he declined a co-pilot; didn’t file a flight plan, didn’t alert his family on Martha’s Vineyard about how late they were running, and finally, chose to fly a (minimally) faster route over the water, which was infinitely more dangerous due to the weather/fog.
If only he’d slowed his roll, and taken a moment to breathe, he might have made different choices. Slowing our thoughts waaaay down is the only way for those of us with ADHD to fully evaluate the risks and rewards of our choices (our impulsivity can be a blessing and/or a curse).
My dad was well acquainted with John Jr due to NY business ventures. He told me he was one of the most humble, down-to-earth people he’d ever met, in business or otherwise. He was impressed by John Jr’s grace and humility in the face of so much public scrutiny.
Such a tragic ending for the Kennedys, as well as Lauren and Carolyn’s parents and John’s sister, Caroline.
Truly heartbreaking.
I was thinking that John had adhd because my grandson has it. But when he married, it seemed like too striking a difference between the two. He needed an outgoing person like himself. Her brooding over reporters in public gave me a negative feeling about their marriage. But my heart broke when all three died in the crash. Now, we have only memories of John and wonder what all he could have accomplished. I was in 11th grade when President Kennedy died. So much tragedy in all the Kennedy’s lives. Take care.
U can lose your in winked of seconds
@@patriciap.9034 She definitely had BPD. She was so needy and emotionally volatile. You know the famous footage of them walking the dog and she’s losing her shit on him and hitting him, and then they make up and then she flies into a rage again and then they make up and then she flies into a rage? That’s classic BPD. He adored her but man those two were a mess together! I think he was so determined not to be like his dad that he went to the opposite extreme and was fiercely loyal in his marriage, to an unhealthy fault.
Yes I agree, I, was eight years old
Also one of my first, things I read was the headlines of that day😔
I'm so at peace now with a little boy who I admired all my life, and when he lost his father and he solute to his coffin, it would bring tears to my eyes because I too lost my father at 3 years old. i often dreamed of meeting him, and I know I will in heaven.
John John had three family loss, his father, his uncle and his mother. He was not so lucky, poor guy, so rich, so poor
Get real he don't do nothing, t was a nobody. I bet you can do better
He carried a heavy mantle of public scrutiny and expectations with considerable grace.
Bless them all.
Jackie was adamantly against him getting a plane, he waited to after she died to get it. He should listened to his mom.
He was selfish and ignorant and probably didn't love his mom
@@tommyharris5817 nonsense. He wanted a plane, didnt get it till his mother was gone because he iddn't want to worry her
@@tommyharris5817 what is your unnatural hater sand obsession with this dead man …you are under every comment spreading your hatred , envy , jealousy and delusions ….what a pathetic life
@@tommyharris5817 Do you do everything your mother says as a grown up? Would you leave a woman or a job because your mother says so? Do you have a brain? You do everything little thing they say or you don't love them? Grow up and be an adult and use the senses you were taught to use
How many tragedies would be averted if people would just listen to mom. True story
Jackie must have had a premonition about John’s death in an airplane .. because she made him promise not to continue to fly. Very eerie
@Molli. Yes I believe she did as well.
The Kennedy family took too many risks. From Ms. Harper Stacey.
His biggest mistake was not turning on the automatic pilot. RIP
Pfft... no you tool... she knew was more stupid than the public knew...
@@billhosko7723 go take your night meds and go back to sleep, you nutso
This was so tragic. And at the time I recalled the time my father and brother spent a night on Martha’s Vineyard because the weather had closed in..flying into Nantucket the following day. My father quietly commented that John Jr. should never have made this trip without instrument flying status. And they were headed for his cousin’s wedding.. Rory ..who was born six months after the death of her father Robert Kennedy.
PS😊pp
How terrifying it must have been in that little plane falling out of the sky. My heart breaks for what they went through & that they are no longer w/us. You could completely relate to what kind of weather conditions they'd have encountered in that area. It's the saddest tragedy. RIP John F. Kennedy Jr., Carolyn & Lauren Bessette.
I heard that their flight was delayed because of Caroline‘s sister Lauren arriving much later than she was supposed to. How they left at the time they were supposed to I believe he would’ve gotten there before dark & would’ve made it there safely. It’s strange how one little incident can change the life so many.
@@sunnydaze2359 Right. That said..he had limited flying experience and his mother did not want to have a pilot’s license ..he waited until after her death. His wife did not like his flying either. There’s a common sense dimension to being a private pilot and you absolutely need that. From a young age, his mother characterized John Jr as a kid who didn’t sit still..high level of enthusiasm..the Kennedys impulsivity is legend..leap before you look..🍃🦋🎆
@@mercywilliams2698 You are so right, Ms. Williams. If Jackie had lived, Jr. would never had been flying. She knew her son suffered from the reading disorder Dyslexia and couldn't read circular plane dial instruments. Jackie would have STOPPED Jr. from flying at all and I wouldn't have BLAMED her.
👎🏾
Losing one daughter is the biggest pain in my life. Can’t imagine losing two. Still makes me sad the tragedy. Such beautiful young people. A day to be born a day to die. 😢
Yes and one of those daughters was a twin. Her mother said after “I used to have twins”… that’s so sad
💔
Yes, the Bessette family was forgotten. Try losing TWO children in one senseless accident! Lisa (Lauren's twin sister) is the only one left!!!! My heart g went out to them.🙏😪
The Besette Family sued
Kennedy's Estate..and received $12,000,000. for each daughter they lost.
@@suzannemacdonald2515 I wondered about that
OK so he crashes a plane six weeks earlier and yet his wife and sister-in-law get in a plane with him?
Carolyn was seen at a makeup counter at a fancy dept store in NYC that day..she even told the makeup girl at the counter that she did not want to go.
Tara, Thank you for sticking to FACTS and helping to disprove these haters insisting baselessly that Carolyn FORCED John to fly that night, or the nut jobs speculating that she somehow purposely crashed the plane!! The Bessettes lost TWO daughters and their pain is horrific enough without such accusations.
@@lindahoffman2692they lost two daughters but any way they sued Kennedy Family. John was their son in law, he was responsible for accident and he was death!!! What does it say about them ? 😂😂😂
@@utahdan231 You MUST LEARN TO READ!! I VERY CLEARLY said above that they lost TWO DAUGHTERS, whose names by the way were Carolyn and Lauren!! And ALL it says about the Bessette Family is that they were DEVASTATED by GRIEF and as anyone who has lost loved ones to tragedy knows that ANGER is one of the first stages of Grief and you look for someone to BLAME whether responsible or not!! Nobody who hasn’t walked in their shoes has any right to judge their actions.
What ever
So very sad and a very tragic loss. I loved living in nyc many years ago. Just to feed the pigeons in Central Park or walk around Manhattan at night with my baseball cap ing incognito was fun peaceful and relaxing for me.!miss so very much being there. Wish I could live there once again. ❤️😇🌟that was my home until I was tragically mugged one evening near Madison square garden and left for dead. Robbed/ beaten. Never caught the two men. The nurse at the hospital told me I am a true miracle to be alive; at first the first responders could not retrieve a pulse; I was beaten so extreme badly. I was told would had been tagged as a Jane Doe; God had a plan/ reason for me being here. I had the hugest crush on John❤️😇R.I.P. to John, Carolyn and Lauren. I feel so bad for you.
people have to understand that just because you have a great or talented parent doesn’t mean the child will inherit the talent. he was a regular guy with regular talents with enormous pressure to be more than his talents would allow. Poor guy
“Great and talented” at the expense of Rosemary .??
@@foxywhitetip7387 -_-
John F. Kennedy Jr. was my first crush growing up. And honestly speaking fell in loved with him from the distance. I admired and adored him. His death was painful. May his soul RIP.
Sounds like bs.
Are you still this delusional?
Some Friends and I were in Tucson Az at a KDKB Party weekend when they announced JFK Jr flight was missing and the DJ played Pink Floyd's Wish you were here. Everyone was kicked back by the pool. Kind of eerie. Song always reminds me of him. RIP

Oh, bullshit.
@@soniabalado9071 Yeah sure Q idiot LMAO
He is not gone.. he is still with us 🙏💜🕎 #wwg1wgaworldwide ❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥⚖️♾️
20:44 The reason John declined to have a copilot is because the day before this flight his cast had been removed and he had told friends that he could not wait to be able to fly solo again. A tragic choice, but not inexplicable.
thats not a valid reason. oh gee I cant wait to fly solo! his ankle should have been a remidner of the dangers if anything.
But he still had his crutches so he wasn't all da way str8
You Tube is just like a history book. Because it brings everything back to life.
And just like history, the narrative is changed.
The beautiful thing about the tragedy in his life, is the love & kindness John possessed,♥️ what a remarkable human being. I can only imagine the great actor he could have been. Rest in Love 🕊 ♥️
By all accounts, John was very kind and sweet....but he had a real temper...especially if he thought you were advantage of him because of his general sweet disposition. I heard he was a screamer. He would go up to the face of the person of his wrath and just yelled at the top of his lungs.
JFC... pfft... this 'remarkable' human being was dumb to his core and took two other's lives with him...

I remember that night. Heard the initial reports, stepped outside onto my patio and looked up at the sky and muttered, "Not again." I also remember being in school when his father was assaunated and still have the memorial book ""Four Days" and the magazines ...it was grueling..
I was not alive for the first jfk death. But I certainly was for the second. It’s amazing he would be 62 now (63 this November)….
@@Erin.56 we were born one month apart…Both Deaths were Dreadfully Sad😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢
So sad that the govt and media do their hardest to pin this tragedy on John. He was much smarter than they give him credit for. He was aware Hillary sabotaged his plane by eye witness mechanic.
He faked all their deaths just like no one found out about their wedding. Brilliant. They are still alive and have children. Witness protection by a great friend.
@@karenwoolman5366 i wish.
I remember when this happened. It was such a tragedy. Poor decisions and poor planning caused the end result. 😢
He was a wonderful man but unfortunately he didn't know his limitations
It’s just baffling why he thought he could fly VFR at nighttime and hazy is the ultimate question. So sad. One of the most beautiful person on earth, physically and his down to earth personality!! Heartbreaking RIP to John, Carolyn and Lauren🙏
I heard on a different video that he skipped a thorough pre flight inspection as he wouldn't have had time for it with his trip to the store and all. And he didn't file a flight plan.
Darwinism
He disliked communicating on the radio. Flying requires your feet. His ankle was a problem but once he lost site of the ground he entered spatial disorientation. His brain confused up and down and he refused to trust his instruments. Should have taken the copilot who offered to go.
He was not instrument rated. That was the problem
@@granny58 If he had stayed along the coastline instead of cutting through across the water (probably to save time) he would have been okay with just VFR.
@@Kimber123After reading all this comments I wonder why some people are so inclining to plot or judge what they cannot understand?
Sadly he's gone forever
People whose lives are usually in distress & disarray....end up making terrible decisions, this was one of those. 😎

Yep. Reminds me of the night Princess Diana died. She took up with a playboy (with a cocaine addiction) who had not a clue about security or protection for her, she was taunting the paparazzi thinking she could just turn them off when she wanted, and she didn't fasten her seatbelt when she got in the car driven by a guy who was not licensed to drive a Mercedes and who was half in the bag....
@@01Mary02 That's why we need to use proper discernment in every situation and not get distracted with narcissistic selfish people around us trying to control every aspect of our lives. I believe this too, Diana was distracted and so was JFK jr with so much stress and demands from others.

PFFFT... "in distress and disarray"... they guy was a queen who thought he was above rules... for years... his (stupidity) took two other's lives...
The day he died was such a sad day!
It was just the Kennedy curse. Karma is a bitch. His grandfather was a mafia-connected bootlegger.

He probably would've made a great actor
@@tommyharris5817 What matters is where he now.
@@mauryanthony1961 Where is he now?
Many things came together to create a tragedy. Mistakes in Flying don't allow a second chance. A co-pilot could have saved the day but we will never know John's thinking that day. So sad. I remember watching the news during the search efforts hoping but reality is no chance when you go down like that.
I almost thought Kobe was gonna walk outta da chopper crash!! We all mortal
He crashed the Ultralight that's why he hurt his ankle.
God bless them all!
Also, rich people think they can do whatever they want.
Insiders say he was act’s partying all night
A sad time in American history. His own government took his dad out of the way. Great presentation. Thanks.
I will always believe that LBJ was a big part of the assination. He wanted to be president.
Definitely sad and watching this brings it back for sure. Not looking to agrue at all and want to make that clear because on platforms, comments can be misunderstood. I grew up believing it was a conspiracy but after continued research through the years and starting with the actual evidence and looking deep into Oswalds life, it's pretty clear that Oswald acted alone.
This guy wasn't rated to fly instruments. That got him killed.
It is nice to remember the DIGNIFIED days of politics and to see what it had turned into is SHAMEFUL and sad for our county 😒
DIGNIFIED??? 😂😂😂 Okay, folks Choose to remember what they want to remember. But to my recollection, there was a LOT of ADULTERY going on (not John Jr., but the other) as well as outright Deception and LIES to the American people by our government….. imo 🤷🏽♀️
What a tragedy. I’ve never heard of any other generations that went through something similar. It’s so clear the entire family was under a curse. So sad.
It wasn't a curse. JFK went to Dallas w/o a bullet proof car, knowing he was hated there. Jr. wasn't instrument trained on planes, therefore when they were in the air and the weather cjanged
And it is a tragedy when anyone dies. And having so much money they were able to do anything they wanted, skiing, race car driving, air planes, the best of everything and they did everything. The odds were against them because they did so much with their money that eventually tragedy will come out of everything and anything they did. There was no curse.
@@JesusismyRock773you are plenty of jeaoluose, against rich and famous family. It's your problem
I felt so sad , for the Kennedys with all the tragic loss, of family members 😢 especially John Jr. I was born one month before John Jr. Will never know the contributions that could have been.
He shouldn’t have started that magazine. Should have stuck to a legal career.
They killed many more innocent people. Hell is unforgiving.
It’s still hard to believe after all these years.

Hearing him talking about politics … It truly was a golden era.
What a terrific and very tragic program. As a native New Yorker I remember when this happened very clearly. I was a teenager at the time and there was a huge shrine set up in from of his apartment. I remember going to pay my respects with a good friend at the time. There were long lines of people paying tribute. It was truly a tragedy. I am sure he would have done tremendous good in the world .
Its hard to believe its been 24 years since it occured, some of our nations tragedies that were so close togeather in date, Columbine mass shooting, 9-11 not very far from this tragic event.

Add to over-confidence, total disregrd for the law, safety of not just himself and his passengers, but everyone else too.. that would have been much worse if he had crashed into a city.. he was not licensed or qualified to be flying over cities, it's astonishing it was even allowed..you normally need flight clearance to fly over major cities and only a fully qualified experienced pilot would get that. It's a pattern that continues in the Kennedy family, taking short-cuts...starting with his grandfather, a mob-connected bootlegger.

He did not die because the Kennedy's curse, he died because he was reckless and with his, took the lives of his wife and sister in law .

@@lisarivera219 - One mother……Jackie was dead.
It's too bad his wife and sister in law didn't see the danger in what he was doing.
Yes. All the more because Kennedy men seem to have a talent for snuffing women out....
how are they supposed to know about flight dangers? if he didnt then why should they? they just trusted he knew his shit. Its not like anybody at the airport warned him either.
And they ended up losing their lives in the process.
@@en6278he didn’t know his shit
He skipped so many warnings. Huge thing is to check weather and refusing a co pilot when he already knew he was going to be late he should have ensured he had an experienced pilot on hand and rung him back. Sadly his arrogance and belief in his own limited ability when he had a damaged ankle, painkillers, busy stressful day, darkness, light haze when he left, all added up to a bad decision that cost him not on,y his life but the life of two others.
I remember the day it happened my father said to me .Kennedy men have been killing beautiful women for years 😬
Many foolish decisions. It makes sense to have a copilot.
That about sums it up!
agree should have known better
Was it arrogance or just naive and inexperienced.?
It's so sad that John Kennedy, Jr., failed to acknowledge his limitations. What a loss!!!
So so sad .His mother Jaquelin Kennedy warned him .She told him please stay away from flying.
so sad. Why was he even allowed by aviation authorities to fly so late when he was not qualified to do so ????
The darkness and weather were right on the edge of making the call where he couldn’t fly. More than one person at the airport advised him against it. He did not listen to wiser, more experienced pilots.
Money and arrogance ~ AND having people kowtow to him all of his life. He was used to having things his own way.
@Elsa VALDIVIA They could have flown to Massachusetts the Next. Morning. So what if they missed the pre-wedding parties? Better safe than sorry. I read that Carolyn didn't like a manicure she got that day ~ and insisted that it be done over right then and there. This didn't help and I really think they should have waited until Saturday morning to fly out. Plus JFK Jr. should have hired a co-pilot to help him out. Most people don't know JFK Jr. suffered with the reading disorder Dyslexia. Letters are transposed in words when you read. He wasn't instrument trained to fly after dusk or dark.
@@jlynn9451 He should have hired a co-pilot or wait until the next morning.
@DVPerry220 she was later for her own wedding... 6 hours because she didn't like the fit of her dress! 🤧.
Too bad that he didn't listen to his Sweet Mother 🙏🏻 RIP 🙏🏻
AMEN AMEN AMEN, I AGREE WITH YOU 1MILLION PERCENT
Jackie had doubts about marrying into the Kennedy clan…..they were too undignified for her taste. She was well aware of the Kennedy curse and was concerned. She should have listened to her initial instincts. I’m glad she was gone before John John died. That would have finished her. She adored him.
"She was such a high maintenance person that she wouldn't make up with him in 5 minutes." jeez, what a diva.
Sounds like women to me.
Yes, she was a really difficult woman. She was 6 hours late for her own wedding and was a well-known screaming lady 🥴.
His mother Jackie , never wanted him to fly. This accident happened after she passed.
I guess the last thinking of John Jr, was for her mother advice
That was a tragic and senseless day . He should not have died that way .
He was such a gorgeous man. Don't think I can watch this one yet. 😭❤️😭
Beauty is subjective
@@foxywhitetip7387 Yes, he was gorgeous.

There are so many things wrong with this video. First of all, pilots who have reviewed the flight after the fact have said that he was a good one and well-trained and qualified. Second, he did not take the direct ocean route, he followed the lights of the Connecticut coastline. Pilots have said that what happened to John, spatial disorientation, could happen to any pilot. He had flown the same route at least 35 times, 17 times without a co-pilot and 5 of those flights at night. RIP.
Oh wow! So sad. Do you think it was a homicide? How can people live to hurt others
Wrong. He didn’t have enough training on instrument reliability. You trust the instruments no matter what your brain tells you. That’s part of training. He either wasn’t paying attention or he was dumb. He could have put it on autopilot and radioed in for assist
But the weather - namely, the haze that night - caused him to crash.
It was suicide …… clearly and he took the woman he hated with him and his sister for love
Right. But he wasn’t trained on navigating with bare minimum instrumentation. Al Gore killed him.
He was tired in life ! People are using him , People's eyes are Waching every acts he do , He was in a cage . No privacy at all. I wish him real happiness & peace wherever he is now 🙏❤
The real curse are the envious, rich family rouse envy
No one should be allowed to fly small aircraft without being qualified to fly by instruments only IFR
There are plenty of VFR pilots who dont take the risks that he did and have been flying for safely years
Very tragic!! So good looking. Imagine this - I was 17yrs old in 1983 and living in India, he was a guest of a friend of mine! I was invited to have tea with him and his travel companion at a club in Calcutta. I couldn’t take my eyes off him.
LoL
Yes, JFK Jr was in India for 8 months in 1983 after graduating from Brown University. I’ve see the pictures MJ Akbar, a journalist took of John and his kids in Delhi in 1983.
He was surely a looker
@@newvideoplaylist That's right he was a 'looking' in the mirror constantly and is THE reason his arrogance took the lives of two others...
You were so lucky to see him! Was he even better looking in person?
We love you John John you are so
missed. You are America's Son an
amazing person. Thank you for years of kindnesses from you.
Thank you for posting this, I appreciate it.
He was never called “John-John.” That’s a myth. His name was/is John.
Thank for your comment, you are the first nice person writing some pity word for John Jr Kennedy ❤
Honestly, I forgot how very young they still were. For some reason makes this loss even greater after 23 years.
Greater more when you found out that all of them are very alive.they were under witness protection program. Soon all be revealed. Wait to see who in reality he is Now ,God is good

@Sonia Balado
If true and you know then who is he and how did you get the information?
I read that his mother used to warn him to stop flying. Mother's are psychic.
Did they find them
@@bessiefox9280 Yes, at the bottom of the ocean. Tangled in wires.
Rest in peace John Fitzgerald Kennedy Jr.
This guy had it all. BUT…Couldn’t read instruments, knew about the fog situation better than anyone and shouldn’t have flown at night. To this day I don’t know what he was thinking. So much to live for…
We will never know only John God so don't be so hard on him
@@jamessimpson422 I’m not being hard him. I suggest you read again, and again. It’s perplexing, that’s all.
@@chop3625 It is mindboggling. Some people on here think maybe he was suicidal. Maybe on some level he was. Maybe he was too distracted by the day's events to give it proper thought. Maybe the pain medication for his ankle affected his judgment. Lots of things added up to this. Clearly a series of very, very poor decisions.
his carelessness not only took his life but those of his wife and her sister's. tragic ending.
Very careless and wreckless!
The girls were late causing him to fly at night, he was not rated for instrument flying, he should have not flown but too bad girls were late

In the same way his dad had ignored advice and refused on having a hard top cover for his fateful motorcade , unfortunately John followed the same attitude to refuse safe advice.
Bingo!
Yes, but since the driver of the limo hit JFK,a top cover would not have been really a help.
@@user-rl2hz9mi6n very likely
Personally I think this flight was a death wish and he was not happy with out his mother who pushed him into things he really wasn't up to ?
I don’t believe he had a death wish. He loved life too much. They were running late and I thought taking his plane was the only way they could get there on time but it’s been so long I don’t really remember. It was a tragic loss for all the families.
I remember my Dad getting annoyed with me because I cried when I heard about his death..."you didn't even KNOW him !" he said. That was true enough....I had never even thought much about him, to be honest, but the circumstances were so sad. Three young people, with everything to live for, dead for no reason. Dreadful.
(Added at the end of this video): man, it really starts to seem like he did it on purpose ! He has always been described as a real rule follower....why suddenly would he go so far off script ? Flying at night (when he knows he shouldn't)...flying over the ocean (when he does not know how to fly by instruments)....
Other bad judgement calls can be put off to overconfidence, but even a NOVICE pilot would not have made those errors!!!
When you have too many conflicting demands, pressure in your life and trying to hold things together it affect your judgement. The demands on his emotions and time constraints added stress. I feel he regretted his decisions too late. The copilot would have avoided this mishap. A great man was lost that day. It was a very sad day.
Don't be silly, he did not do it on purpose. My cousin a commercial pilot and he me told that JK was just overconfident and got himself in trouble. He was not instrument trained and went into a spiral without knowing it. Just an accident.
You dad was wrong. We did knowledge in the sense we grew up with him. We saw the times of his life on tv. They for school etc. then why did our parents cry when his dad or brother ?was killed? Three generations were touched when their history was played out on tv or newspapers?I think your dad has to rethink his comment to you?
leanie. Maybe your Dad is a Republican.
@@gigismith7733 Yes I agree with you. That was harsh for him to say that.
Loved John Jr. And his father 🙏
WELL SAID😔
JFK Jr. loved airplanes. In the Look Magazine layout way back in the early 60s, John would “narrate” a portion of the article from his two-year-old perspective. There was a shot of young John poised outside the closed door of his father’s office drawing an airplane. The caption said, “The closed door means Daddy’s busy so you just draw another plane.” I was a little girl when that article came out. He truly loved aviation from a very young age.
You realize the magazine made up those captions, right?
@@kleeamd8274 Yes, I did. But he did inform the reporter of what he’d was “drawing.” Why do you think I put “narrate” in quotes??
He really didn’t think this decision thru very well. With so many commercial flights and possibilities for a co pilot he really made a poor decision that caused so much heartbreak for the parents of those two girls. I think John needed his mother guidance to keep his feet firmly on the ground. Had he listened to his mother he never would have started flying in the first place. Rich handsome famous deadly mix, john assumed he was indestructible. RIP.
Indeed, Jackie would have raised Hell and put a stop to his flying. She knew Jr. would never have been able to read the dials on the instrument panel. Dyslexia would have prevented his full flight training with instrument panel training. He couldn't read straight with Dyslexia.
@@DVPerry220 and being dumb
@@DVPerry220 If he couldn't read it, how did he get his licence?
@@AS-wj1du He must have taken his qualifying flight on a clear-weathered day and didn't have to rely upon his instrument-reading skills. NOT MANY PEOPLE KNOW - EVEN TO THIS DAY - JFK, Jr. SUFFERED WITH THE READING DISORDER CALLED 'DYSLEXIA': WHEN YOU LOOK AT THE WORDS IN SOMETHING YOU ARE READING, THE LETTERS IN THE WORDS ARE TRANSPOSED. WHEN YOU READ THE WORD "BETTER", IT MAY APPEAR TO YOU AS "BEETER". I think the brain signals between what you read and what you think you saw are not in sync. There's something that gets scrambled in the path of transmission between the eyes and the brain. JFK Jr. took the bar exam for an attorney's license 3 TIMES before he passed it. Dyslexia had to be why this happened. It was hazy at twilight when they took off, and not enough daylight to fly w/o having to resort to reading instruments on his plane's console panel. O think that the numbers on those dials are in a circle. If you are Dyslexic this won't help at all.
Jacquie avait interdit a son fils de voler car une voyante lui avait prédit qu'il mourrait dans un accident d'avion.
I will never understand why John dident get an experience pilot to take them to where they were going. but I believe in his heart he really thought he could get them all their safe.
Ego
I think he should have
Wasn’t thinking his fault
@@tnt01 exactly , and it cost him and 2 lives , at least get another pilot that knows more then you and then you can get more training while your flying to Martha's but maybe he didnt want to show to his wife and her sister how much he didn't know .
It shows the arrogance of that family. He didn't think he needed a pilots license to fly a plane above cities. And because they were who they are, nobody thought to stop him flying. Imagine if that had crashed right ontop of New York city.
John was invited to be a guest at the annual Oshkosh WI air show, where he announced he was so impressed he would go get his license to fly.
A very sad story of pain sorrow and what it feels to loose loved ones Loneliness and living life on one's own terms in search of happiness Tragedy always followed him and his family and in the end , took his life in moments and seconds May the souls of the departed Rest In Peace ✌🙏
What a sad life and a tragic end to a man who had faced soo much death. My heart goes out to the families of all three who lost their lives. X
Any pilot who doesn't file a flight plan, especially with passengers on board, is reckless, to say the least, also ignoring his own skill level and the weather.
If he filled a flight plan he still would have crashed and the result would have been exactly the same. He wasn’t a good pilot (or a good lawyer, magazine editor, student)
@@drdrew3 which is why I mentioned his skill level, he was still inexperienced and clearly engaged in risky behaviour. I don't know about his legal career or his magazine editing skills or student records, nor do I care, I am sure he was good at something. Unfortunate, he made poor decisions that day.
Tragic and Yet, I still cry about it.. SO SAD.. May be he chose his freedom in a way we’ll never know.. May be he chose death as he knows he’ll never have privacy and expectations is putting too much pressure on him he needed to breathe.. REST IN PEACE JOHN JOHN
This is the celeb death that affected me the most. I still remember what I was doing what I heard the news.
He was a beautiful man
He had the world at his feet. From Ms. Harper Stacey.
Really handsome, much class
That was so incredibly irresponsible 😡
His father died 2 months before I was born . 36 years later John Jr. was gone. I don’t know both of them but I was very sad. RIP
Although the Kennedys led a privileged life, I don't know how one family can survive SO MANY tragedies, one after another.
I was so disappointed to hear their marriage was in trouble.
Like many others, I was naive in thinking it WAS a fairytale...hey, there ARE marriages like that, and I've been lucky to witness a couple of those fairytales, but they're so rare. 😞
Which of the tragedies could have been prevented with better choices?
When I was a little I always fallowed his news as he was so handsome & sexy and charming. This year I'm 50, I still watch his documentaries. What a shame he died so young.
Such a tragic ending for a sweet,kind soul, he was set to take on the world. Gone but never forgotten
So tragic, I still have trouble believing he's gone , I'm so sorry his mom Jackie passed away, but so glad John's was after she passed, I don't think she could have survived another tradgey in her life, especially her son , and daughter-in-law and her sister, may they all be resting in heavenly peace,
The Kennedy's are not the only family who have lost family members in plane crashes you know. My heart goes out to all families of those who have died in plane crashes.
@goldieryun-or1zv
had Jackie lived John Jr. would never have married Carolyn, Jackie with have seen right through Carolyn's personality.
John Jr would never have gotten in a plane while his mother was alive too bad Jackie did not live longer😢 too much tragedy for one family to bear. RIP
😮😮😮weird about theirs death
@@jeanpalumbo3411HOW DO YOU KNOW HE WOULDN'T HAVE MARRIED CAROLYN IF JACKIE WAS STILL ALIVE???
Some bad decisions made by john . Too bad he didn’t have instrument training. It would of saved his life. My heart goes out to the families. Such a tragic end .
He was either extremely arrogant, stupid or both.
That poor mother that lost both daughters. The other sister moved to Europe to get away from all her grief for a few years.
Reckless and invincible leads to bad outcomes. He was flying above his skill level when he could have easily afforded to hire a plane or drive.
i totally agree with you.
He thought he was larger than life. He was reckless. He was a beautiful young man who made a fatally awful decision.
Too much stress will take you off your game. He was trying to please too many people. Very sad outcome.
Absolutely, stress takes your mind away from the present and that's when you make mistakes. You go along in a trance like state which is fine if everything goes as planned. You're not available to handle the unexpected. And that's when accidents happen.
@@deborahxavier1851 agree
No way I’d fly as a passenger in that sort of Lego aircraft. I’m surprised the sisters agreed to fly with him. Too much trust can result in very awful consequences at times.
They put way too much trust in his flying ability
May their souls rest in heavenly peace
This is sad but what is sadder is that their are people who think his death is fake and he is still alive
evidence doesnt lie
The same was said about Elvis Presley.
@@Harley08 aka Bob Joyce the pastor?? the one who was pictured with the kid playing in the new Elvis movie?? yeah that's the same man..Bob Joyce
Evidence can be manipulated and people do lie. Marylin Monroe was certainly murdered. It would be great if it was fake and they lived. If people want to think it's possible, it doesn't hurt anyone.

I remember laying in bed and rolling my eyes at such a dopey thing to think of. I finally got up, put on tv and saw "JFK Jr plane missing". My stomach sank. To this day I cannot explain it. Also, the night of 9/11/03, I had a weird dream that a sandy haired, blue eyed man was standing on a stage laughing, when all of a sudden he grabbed his chest and fell off a stage. I woke up on 9/12/03 to the news that John Ritter died.

After all these years I still recall that morning on the 16th of July, 1999. God Bless his sister Caroline.
friend of mine died in a small overloaded privately chartered plane off St Vincent which crashed shortly after take-off in similar circumstances, people in hurry etc, taking risks, overloading the plane, overestimating the plane's capabilities
Ooo ok polo hi hi hi no
Gentle spirit.
When he was alive, i always hoped he would run for president.
I believe I read somewhere that John did not believe he would make 40. Oh how right he was. So tragic and yet avoidable in this type of death. Always felt sad about him and David Kennedy particularly.
I am 63 years old, and I have also read John thought he would not see 40 years old. It is so sad to see that he made so many bad judgements. I hadn't known he was taking pain medication. I am both an RN and have taken pain meds many times. There are absolutely no circumstances that one should drive or fly while taking pain meds. Period.
I grieve for the girls' parents whom lost two daughters, as well as the entire Kennedy family. Maybe someone seeing this video coverage will cause them to remember not to fly when not instrument trained or while taking pain meds. ❤
@@cece9145 Amen let's hope so!
With men like John, yoo won't be able to reason with them beyond a certain point or talk them out of doing what they absolutely set on accomplishing, despite using logic and intellect. They're headstrong, super confident and whatever happens....happens. Not the makings of a good pilot by any stretch.
@@msr1116
You did not know John, none of us here knew him, his circumstances or how or why he acted so out of character on that fateful day. This video was meant to shine some light on this.
His mother had always tried to talk him out of flying. We might guess this is why his friends, the airport staff and all those who knew him, all shared the observation that he was scrupulous about safety and assessing his aircraft beforehand, and during flying. He also usually had another pilot flying with him, long after he was required to. This indicates he was erring on the side of safety or behaving with an abundance of caution. Neither of these actions reflect the behavior of a "hot head".
This overview of his last 24hrs layed out the many high stressors he was dealing with at this very moment in time. He was facing the very real possibility that he was losing his wife and losing his business.
He lived his life under both a microscope, and the high expectations of his immediate and extended family to follow in their footsteps to politics, as well as the entire world being infatuated with him, to the point the paparazzi was always a few yards away. We can only imagine the pressure he lived his life under, and especially on this particular day. It is made clear that he acted out of character on this late afternoon. This is the very reason for the overview.
To paint him as a hot head whom flew by the seat of his pants, and even insinuating he "had it coming" is both irresponsible, unkind and insensitive.
@@cece9145 .....people like you are HILARIOUS....writing op-ed length posts defending deceased public figures.. John was totally at fault for the crash. Period.
