The pilots flying that way for over 30 mins is so sad. They fought and fought for the lives on board. God be with them their heros.

I wonder how many would have survived if help had gotten there soon. The would-be rescuers who said no survivors could be seen bear a heavy guilt. How can you see survivors if you don't bother to land and search for survivors?

[Patco]

The US soldiers were ready to be on scene the night of the crash. Survivors possibly could have been helped. Someone needs to answer for ordering them to stand down.

You can never assume that no one survived a crash?? Shame on the Japanese government for not sending in rescue immediately. Many more could have been saved.

I applaud the crew of FedEx 705 . . . AMAZING gentlemen. I am sorry for their loss of flight - God Bless you three.

FedEx flight 705 crew were amazing heros. Wow, selflessness at its finest. Selflessness is 90% the ingredient for heroism... Doing it to protect others while putting yourself I harms way... Wow.. 🙏✈️

I heard from someone that multiple pilots tried to fly the same plane (the JA123) in flight sims and most of them couldn't keep it up for longer than 30 seconds.
Don't trust me on this, but I wholeheartedly believe it.

[EGGnhash]

Hearing whoop whoop pull up has to be a whole new level of terror

These are my two favourite episodes, together. Thank you for this amazing upload!

This JAL 123 episode is much better than that horrendous remake they did in 2023 that was a huge disgrace to the show, the original episode and the story of JAL 123.

Japan 123 is the kind of thing that gives nightmares and not long after my grandad(who was a pilot himself and the one who got me into all things aviation)first told me about this literal ride from hell back in 1994 when I was 8 it gave me nightmares several times ..all the documentaries Ive seen since then makes it undoubtedly the scariest plane crash in aviation history for me...those last 32 min must've felt like an eternity to everyone onboard and it's nothing short of miraculous the pilots were able to stay in the air without stalling for anywhere near that long and then for them to crash in one of a very few places people could actually survive is absolutely a miracle..imagine if they had made it back to Tokyo just how many people on the ground most likely would've died while most likely no one onboard would've survived

How the heck those fed ex pilots survived that attack is insane. Why Callaway thought killing 3 innocent men to support his kids future was acceptable is insane. These men had never done anything to him and yet he was able to channel such evil to murder these men so brutally to provide financially for his ex wife and children. He deserved the death penalty.

[tarikcherenet]

14hrs after crash? They killed them by not showing up to help!!!

[TragicFlames]

Can't stop and won't stop watching these....they're addicting

[AmeliasMiMi]

It is a crying shame you have to watch a YouTube channel to learn your hometowns history.
I have lived here all my life and do not remember this incident happening. Extremely grateful that all three survived the fed ex flight nightmare but it is truly sad that one individual destroyed so many careers and lives in a matter of 30 minutes. So, I suppose the bright side of this is at least he didn’t end their lives. God bless you all!

[SolomUnnie]

I'm sorry but this is my first time hearing rescuers say that the reason why they stay the night in a village instead of going directly to the crash sight is because they don't think that there are still survivors???!!!?! wtf

[dee-annaramirez]

The fact that more people survived then later died makes me so sad😢😢😢

[Officer-Wow-US]

The way the pilots are just like “I think something exploded” while everyone is like

[quietguy]

As to JAL 123 and it's horrible end, the Japanese infrastructure failed as well... poor rescue efforts, et al.

[nytrn]

The FedEx crew is amazing with their skills and strength. Heroes 🙏
