1
00:00:22,320 --> 00:00:25,200
A Malaysia Airlines plane,
with nearly 300 people on board,
2
00:00:25,280 --> 00:00:27,640
has crashed in Ukraine
near the Russian border.
3
00:00:27,720 --> 00:00:32,040
Flight MH17 took off from Amsterdam
just after midday local time.
4
00:00:32,120 --> 00:00:34,160
It was bound for Kuala Lumpur.
5
00:00:40,560 --> 00:00:42,400
I woke up one morning
6
00:00:42,480 --> 00:00:47,000
and there was a Malaysian plane
splashed across the TV.
7
00:00:47,080 --> 00:00:50,120
Instantly, I thought it was MH370
8
00:00:50,200 --> 00:00:52,680
and then I saw MH17 and I went,
9
00:00:52,760 --> 00:00:55,760
"Hold on."
"Can't be another Malaysian plane."
10
00:00:56,480 --> 00:00:59,880
US intelligence has concluded
it was shot down
11
00:00:59,960 --> 00:01:01,640
by a surface-to-air missile.
12
00:01:01,720 --> 00:01:04,920
The odds of losing
two airplanes within a six-month period
13
00:01:05,000 --> 00:01:06,040
is unprecedented.
14
00:01:06,120 --> 00:01:07,680
And both 777s too.
15
00:01:08,800 --> 00:01:11,840
Again it happened
to Malaysia Airlines plane.
16
00:01:11,920 --> 00:01:14,040
Again it happened to my colleagues.
17
00:01:14,800 --> 00:01:15,800
And...
18
00:01:16,560 --> 00:01:21,000
it just so happened that this time,
they can bury their loved ones.
19
00:01:23,360 --> 00:01:24,720
Because we also...
20
00:01:27,720 --> 00:01:28,720
Yeah.
21
00:01:29,880 --> 00:01:32,520
We also want to bury our loved ones.
22
00:01:37,920 --> 00:01:40,120
I just went numb. Completely numb.
23
00:01:40,800 --> 00:01:42,000
And...
24
00:01:42,080 --> 00:01:43,800
I just couldn't believe it.
25
00:01:44,760 --> 00:01:48,280
We kept thinking,
"There is probably some kind of plan
26
00:01:48,360 --> 00:01:51,520
to destroy our credibility."
27
00:01:51,600 --> 00:01:54,720
A series of actions
trying to bring us down.
28
00:01:55,560 --> 00:01:58,720
Ukrainian president called
the downing of a Malaysian Airlines
29
00:01:58,800 --> 00:02:01,080
passenger plane an act of terrorism.
30
00:02:01,160 --> 00:02:03,520
It turned out
that it was a Russian army unit
31
00:02:03,600 --> 00:02:06,520
under the command
of Russia's military intelligence.
32
00:02:09,400 --> 00:02:12,880
Malaysia Airlines hadn't had a major
accident since the '90s
33
00:02:12,960 --> 00:02:17,320
and now within a span of four and a half
months, they'd lost two, big 777s.
34
00:02:18,000 --> 00:02:19,680
I had to wonder,
35
00:02:19,760 --> 00:02:21,240
"Is this just a coincidence?"
36
00:02:21,920 --> 00:02:25,520
And if there was a link
between the two of them,
37
00:02:27,080 --> 00:02:29,160
the underlying truth had to be way darker
38
00:02:29,240 --> 00:02:31,480
then anyone had anticipated at that point.
39
00:02:35,440 --> 00:02:37,080
We don't have the answers.
40
00:02:37,600 --> 00:02:41,360
This is one of the great mysteries
in aviation history.
41
00:02:51,960 --> 00:02:54,760
Australia will lead
the search in the Indian Ocean
42
00:02:54,840 --> 00:02:56,800
for the missing Malaysia Airlines jet.
43
00:02:57,360 --> 00:03:00,320
In the months that followed
the shoot-down of MH17...
44
00:03:01,440 --> 00:03:02,720
As I thought about
45
00:03:02,800 --> 00:03:06,720
the idea that maybe the Russians
had caused both of these events,
46
00:03:06,800 --> 00:03:09,280
the search for MH370 was already underway.
47
00:03:10,160 --> 00:03:13,480
Experts say the jet
going down in the Indian Ocean,
48
00:03:13,560 --> 00:03:15,400
more than 1,800 kilometers
49
00:03:15,480 --> 00:03:17,360
off the West Australian coast.
50
00:03:17,440 --> 00:03:19,840
It's a vast area,
a huge responsibility
51
00:03:19,920 --> 00:03:23,480
for Australia as they try and find
any trace of flight 370.
52
00:03:24,640 --> 00:03:26,960
Tonight, there are 43 ships,
53
00:03:27,040 --> 00:03:28,400
58 aircraft,
54
00:03:28,480 --> 00:03:33,080
from 14 different countries,
all working together to try to find clues.
55
00:03:33,160 --> 00:03:35,720
The area they're searching is far larger
56
00:03:35,800 --> 00:03:37,880
than the continental United States.
57
00:03:38,440 --> 00:03:40,520
We're not searching
for a needle in a haystack,
58
00:03:40,600 --> 00:03:42,480
we're trying to define
where the haystack is.
59
00:03:47,160 --> 00:03:49,480
The search team
still insists the debris field
60
00:03:49,560 --> 00:03:51,240
is here on the ocean floor,
61
00:03:51,320 --> 00:03:54,120
a location they say
satellite data points to.
62
00:03:54,920 --> 00:03:57,200
The official account
63
00:03:57,280 --> 00:04:00,960
was that the plane definitely went south
into the southern Indian Ocean.
64
00:04:01,040 --> 00:04:04,120
Because that's where the last electronic
signals had been detected.
65
00:04:04,960 --> 00:04:08,120
The Inmarsat data says
the plane went south.
66
00:04:12,000 --> 00:04:14,960
I can't imagine someone I loved
67
00:04:15,560 --> 00:04:18,720
lost in the southern Indian Ocean
in 4,000 meters of water.
68
00:04:18,800 --> 00:04:20,520
I mean, that's just...
69
00:04:20,600 --> 00:04:21,440
inconceivable.
70
00:04:23,480 --> 00:04:28,240
There was 239 families
who were desperate for answers.
71
00:04:28,320 --> 00:04:29,680
And...
72
00:04:29,760 --> 00:04:32,200
I made a promise at that time
73
00:04:32,280 --> 00:04:34,600
that I'd do everything I could,
as an individual,
74
00:04:34,680 --> 00:04:36,280
to bring their loved ones home.
75
00:04:39,120 --> 00:04:42,000
But it was
a very, very difficult area to search.
76
00:04:45,920 --> 00:04:49,480
What you hope for is a nice,
flat, soft plane.
77
00:04:50,920 --> 00:04:52,280
But there were
78
00:04:52,360 --> 00:04:54,320
volcanoes, underwater mountains,
79
00:04:54,400 --> 00:04:57,960
every bit as big and wide
as the Grand Canyon.
80
00:04:59,800 --> 00:05:02,400
The weather at times
is appalling down there.
81
00:05:05,160 --> 00:05:07,800
They measured a wave of 24 meters.
82
00:05:09,160 --> 00:05:11,400
It was definitely not
for the faint-hearted.
83
00:05:14,720 --> 00:05:17,760
So, we knew the chances were
it would take a long time.
84
00:05:37,600 --> 00:05:40,440
This is what
a year of grieving looks like.
85
00:05:43,160 --> 00:05:47,840
The relatives of the missing
have experienced denial, anger, sadness.
86
00:05:47,920 --> 00:05:50,360
But with not a single trace of the plane,
87
00:05:50,440 --> 00:05:52,520
acceptance is a long way off.
88
00:05:53,080 --> 00:05:55,640
This is why I am here
speaking to you today.
89
00:05:55,720 --> 00:05:59,400
This is why I'm here going through
this heart-wrenching episode,
90
00:05:59,480 --> 00:06:01,720
talking about my feelings. It's not easy.
91
00:06:02,320 --> 00:06:07,360
I think, for everyone, it had been a very
difficult year for the next of kin.
92
00:06:07,440 --> 00:06:10,600
When I decided
to then address the public on that day,
93
00:06:10,680 --> 00:06:13,840
I was just speaking to them as
a daughter missing her mother.
94
00:06:14,720 --> 00:06:16,800
But I'm doing it because I need to know
95
00:06:16,880 --> 00:06:19,440
that I've done everything
that I can for my mother.
96
00:06:20,080 --> 00:06:21,680
Even if she's not here.
97
00:06:21,760 --> 00:06:23,320
I think I still lived my days
98
00:06:23,400 --> 00:06:25,640
thinking my mom
would walk through the door any minute.
99
00:06:26,640 --> 00:06:30,840
Because we had not discovered any debris,
there was absolutely nothing.
100
00:06:32,640 --> 00:06:34,560
So my daughter asked me,
101
00:06:35,960 --> 00:06:37,280
"Where is Papa?"
102
00:06:39,360 --> 00:06:40,520
"If Papa died,
103
00:06:41,280 --> 00:06:42,840
where is his grave?"
104
00:06:44,080 --> 00:06:46,560
She asked me again and again.
105
00:06:48,440 --> 00:06:50,560
"Why Papa work on airplane?"
106
00:06:50,640 --> 00:06:53,080
"Why didn't Papa go work somewhere else?"
107
00:06:53,160 --> 00:06:56,880
"If Papa go worked somewhere else,
Papa wouldn't go missing."
108
00:07:02,000 --> 00:07:03,200
A whole year
109
00:07:03,840 --> 00:07:05,280
had gone past
110
00:07:05,880 --> 00:07:10,080
and we were still no further ahead
111
00:07:10,680 --> 00:07:12,800
than we were from March 8th.
112
00:07:14,120 --> 00:07:19,480
Just seemed surreal to be
standing there still, 12 months on.
113
00:07:21,160 --> 00:07:23,360
And all I had
114
00:07:24,640 --> 00:07:25,640
is him
115
00:07:26,440 --> 00:07:29,920
walking out that door
and kissing us goodbye.
116
00:07:31,920 --> 00:07:33,080
And that was still,
117
00:07:33,960 --> 00:07:35,520
a year on, all I had.
118
00:07:50,680 --> 00:07:51,680
Planes go up.
119
00:07:52,200 --> 00:07:53,200
Planes go down.
120
00:07:55,680 --> 00:07:59,600
What planes don't do
is just vanish off the face of the earth.
121
00:08:01,240 --> 00:08:05,440
I remember when it was missing
for a week and we were all incredulous.
122
00:08:05,520 --> 00:08:06,840
You know, we said to one another,
123
00:08:06,880 --> 00:08:10,560
"I can't believe it's been a whole week
and we still haven't found this plane."
124
00:08:10,640 --> 00:08:13,640
And then, after a month,
"We still haven't found this plane."
125
00:08:13,720 --> 00:08:15,040
And then a year later...
126
00:08:16,920 --> 00:08:18,760
"We're still looking for this plane?"
127
00:08:19,520 --> 00:08:21,640
The profundity of this mystery,
128
00:08:22,320 --> 00:08:25,720
and the incompetence
of the Malaysian authorities
129
00:08:25,800 --> 00:08:27,960
to answer anybody's questions
130
00:08:28,640 --> 00:08:30,520
had presented a vacuum.
131
00:08:31,480 --> 00:08:34,560
And there was a lot of people out there
132
00:08:34,640 --> 00:08:37,320
who were claiming that they had solved it.
133
00:08:39,280 --> 00:08:42,040
On social media,
conspiracy theories
134
00:08:42,120 --> 00:08:43,840
about the missing plane are going viral.
135
00:08:44,600 --> 00:08:47,560
The real Malaysian Airlines flight
was hijacked
136
00:08:47,640 --> 00:08:49,640
and flown to Iran
137
00:08:49,720 --> 00:08:52,480
in preparation for a terror attack.
138
00:08:53,040 --> 00:08:56,600
Theories are bouncing off the walls.
Everyone's got an idea.
139
00:08:56,680 --> 00:09:00,400
Fire from lithium batteries
in the cargo hold brought the plane down.
140
00:09:00,480 --> 00:09:02,600
Speculation is rife.
141
00:09:02,680 --> 00:09:05,000
News has broke that
a fisherman from Indonesia
142
00:09:05,040 --> 00:09:09,040
claims he saw the damaged plane
covered in smoke as it flew overhead.
143
00:09:09,120 --> 00:09:10,920
Another conspiracy,
144
00:09:11,000 --> 00:09:13,240
an outrageous insurance scam.
145
00:09:13,320 --> 00:09:15,800
Some of these people
showed up outside my office,
146
00:09:15,880 --> 00:09:17,240
would chase me down in a car park.
147
00:09:17,280 --> 00:09:20,120
It was quite scary. I remember
spraining an ankle once trying to escape
148
00:09:20,200 --> 00:09:23,880
one of these people who really just wanted
to bring their theory to me.
149
00:09:23,960 --> 00:09:25,920
Four days after
flight disappeared,
150
00:09:26,000 --> 00:09:29,840
there was a patent issued
for a new semiconductor technology.
151
00:09:29,920 --> 00:09:33,160
Others wonder,
"Did it land on the US military base
152
00:09:33,240 --> 00:09:35,000
known as Diego Garcia?"
153
00:09:35,600 --> 00:09:38,640
We're trying
to sift through this waterfall
154
00:09:38,720 --> 00:09:41,840
of misinformation and speculation...
155
00:09:41,920 --> 00:09:42,920
and nonsense.
156
00:09:43,000 --> 00:09:45,640
The totally bizarre.
A meteorite hitting it.
157
00:09:46,760 --> 00:09:50,440
Perhaps, some suggest,
North Korea took the airplane.
158
00:09:50,520 --> 00:09:52,760
Does this mean
an alien was on the plane?
159
00:09:52,840 --> 00:09:54,960
And abducted everyone on board.
160
00:09:55,040 --> 00:09:56,920
It gets even weirder.
161
00:10:00,160 --> 00:10:03,040
Sometimes you just feel like
you're drowning in horseshit.
162
00:10:03,120 --> 00:10:06,000
Because there's
just so many baseless ideas.
163
00:10:07,080 --> 00:10:08,840
If you want to believe in a theory,
164
00:10:08,920 --> 00:10:12,440
make sure that it concurs
with the Inmarsat data
165
00:10:13,080 --> 00:10:15,440
that told the scientist how far
166
00:10:15,520 --> 00:10:17,720
the plane was from the satellite.
167
00:10:18,560 --> 00:10:22,360
This is the key clue of the entire mystery
168
00:10:22,440 --> 00:10:26,000
and people are choosing
to just say, "Fuck it."
169
00:10:31,240 --> 00:10:34,440
And yet the plane wasn't where
170
00:10:34,520 --> 00:10:36,760
the data said it was supposed to be,
171
00:10:36,840 --> 00:10:38,560
in the southern Indian Ocean.
172
00:10:39,840 --> 00:10:43,040
That seemed to me something
that had to be grappled with.
173
00:10:43,120 --> 00:10:44,960
We had to address the issue
174
00:10:45,040 --> 00:10:48,040
of why wasn't the plane
where it was supposed to be?
175
00:10:48,120 --> 00:10:49,560
Where had we gone wrong?
176
00:11:02,080 --> 00:11:05,360
The story was so incredible.
177
00:11:05,440 --> 00:11:08,640
I decided to suggest to Le Monde,
178
00:11:08,720 --> 00:11:10,560
a French daily newspaper,
179
00:11:10,640 --> 00:11:14,480
to revisit the story
for the one-year anniversary.
180
00:11:14,560 --> 00:11:15,560
Just saying,
181
00:11:15,920 --> 00:11:21,320
"Guys, this plane
has been completely missing for a year."
182
00:11:22,920 --> 00:11:25,480
I'm a journalist and I've been a reporter
183
00:11:25,560 --> 00:11:28,400
covering Asia-Pacific
for the last 30 years.
184
00:11:29,760 --> 00:11:33,320
The fact that
there was not a single piece of debris
185
00:11:33,400 --> 00:11:35,120
was the biggest issue.
186
00:11:36,440 --> 00:11:40,440
There was nothing tangible, credible,
187
00:11:40,520 --> 00:11:43,200
that the families could relate to.
188
00:11:44,760 --> 00:11:48,800
And the captain
was made the potential villain.
189
00:11:50,120 --> 00:11:53,800
I realized that
we had to start from scratch again.
190
00:11:54,640 --> 00:11:57,280
And I need to have my own
191
00:11:57,360 --> 00:12:00,360
understanding of who this man is.
192
00:12:02,840 --> 00:12:05,080
There was a very consistent
193
00:12:05,160 --> 00:12:08,880
and hostile campaign related to
194
00:12:08,960 --> 00:12:11,480
his private life, his mental health.
195
00:12:12,240 --> 00:12:15,960
There were also accusations
that he may have had
196
00:12:16,040 --> 00:12:17,760
political motivations
197
00:12:17,840 --> 00:12:20,560
to disappear MH370.
198
00:12:21,560 --> 00:12:24,960
He was a fan of Anwar Ibrahim,
199
00:12:25,040 --> 00:12:27,840
who was the leader
of the opposition party.
200
00:12:27,920 --> 00:12:31,480
Zaharie attended Anwar's
pro-democracy rallies and meetings.
201
00:12:31,560 --> 00:12:33,800
Local press are now asking,
202
00:12:33,880 --> 00:12:38,320
"Did Zaharie purposely down the plane
to make a political statement?"
203
00:12:39,800 --> 00:12:42,600
But he left no message, uh,
204
00:12:42,680 --> 00:12:45,240
whatsoever, political,
205
00:12:45,320 --> 00:12:50,000
uh, or goodbye to his family,
or any suicide note.
206
00:12:50,080 --> 00:12:51,280
None at all.
207
00:12:51,960 --> 00:12:54,600
And the more I looked at his life,
208
00:12:54,680 --> 00:12:58,680
the less I could see a reason for him
209
00:12:58,760 --> 00:13:01,880
to be angry or to be unhappy.
210
00:13:02,480 --> 00:13:04,320
Hi everyone. Uh...
211
00:13:04,400 --> 00:13:07,840
This is a YouTube video that I made as a
212
00:13:08,360 --> 00:13:10,320
community service.
213
00:13:10,400 --> 00:13:11,560
This was a man
214
00:13:11,640 --> 00:13:14,640
who was doing YouTube videos to help
215
00:13:15,360 --> 00:13:17,120
sealing your windows
216
00:13:17,200 --> 00:13:19,480
or fixing your air conditioning.
217
00:13:19,560 --> 00:13:22,360
This is the cheapest solution
that you can do.
218
00:13:22,440 --> 00:13:23,720
And it's very effective.
219
00:13:23,800 --> 00:13:27,720
In my opinion,
he was certainly not an extremist.
220
00:13:29,160 --> 00:13:34,160
What I did was line up interviews
with members of his family.
221
00:13:35,920 --> 00:13:37,720
My very first encounter
222
00:13:37,800 --> 00:13:41,120
was with his older sister, Sakinab.
223
00:13:42,720 --> 00:13:45,440
He's a very gentle, very caring
224
00:13:47,000 --> 00:13:47,840
person.
225
00:13:47,920 --> 00:13:51,960
Sakinab, when I met her,
was obviously very upset.
226
00:13:52,040 --> 00:13:57,200
First, because she lost this precious
little brother that she loved so much,
227
00:13:57,280 --> 00:14:01,680
but also because she had to endure
228
00:14:01,760 --> 00:14:08,400
these insinuations
that he was responsible for this disaster.
229
00:14:11,240 --> 00:14:13,120
Captain Zaharie is
230
00:14:14,960 --> 00:14:19,040
known as one of the best pilots
at Malaysia Airlines.
231
00:14:19,120 --> 00:14:20,960
And all the crews
232
00:14:21,840 --> 00:14:24,640
definitely don't agree with
233
00:14:24,720 --> 00:14:27,560
that kind of accusation
towards Captain Zaharie.
234
00:14:29,920 --> 00:14:32,760
When the spotlight
focused on Captain Zaharie,
235
00:14:32,840 --> 00:14:35,000
I took offense to that.
236
00:14:35,080 --> 00:14:39,160
Because I know him personally.
I know him very well.
237
00:14:39,240 --> 00:14:41,640
And he's a person
who is very professional.
238
00:14:41,720 --> 00:14:44,320
There's no way he could have done this.
239
00:14:46,040 --> 00:14:48,360
If there's no proof,
then you shouldn't assume
240
00:14:48,440 --> 00:14:49,880
someone did that.
241
00:14:49,960 --> 00:14:52,120
Especially maybe because
I'm a criminal lawyer,
242
00:14:52,200 --> 00:14:55,080
and being innocent until proven guilty
is very important to me.
243
00:14:58,440 --> 00:15:01,520
People say
everyone may have a darker side.
244
00:15:02,280 --> 00:15:03,560
Okay. Maybe, then.
245
00:15:03,640 --> 00:15:05,920
But, as far as I'm concerned,
246
00:15:06,560 --> 00:15:10,400
based on all the information
I gathered and I read,
247
00:15:11,640 --> 00:15:13,320
my answer is, "No."
248
00:15:14,960 --> 00:15:16,280
"He's, he's not guilty."
249
00:15:26,160 --> 00:15:27,640
So, it's a year on.
250
00:15:27,720 --> 00:15:30,040
It seems to me increasingly problematic
251
00:15:30,120 --> 00:15:33,640
that the plane has not been found,
no debris has been found.
252
00:15:33,720 --> 00:15:36,240
All... The entire search effort
at this point
253
00:15:36,920 --> 00:15:39,400
is based on the satellite data.
254
00:15:41,880 --> 00:15:42,880
But...
255
00:15:43,320 --> 00:15:46,720
ships and planes
from 12 countries had been scouring
256
00:15:47,400 --> 00:15:51,720
millions of square miles of ocean
and found not so much as a seat cushion.
257
00:15:52,760 --> 00:15:57,360
So the entire edifice is resting on this
258
00:15:57,440 --> 00:16:00,600
rather scant set of electronic signals
259
00:16:00,680 --> 00:16:04,800
and the fairly advanced mathematics
that was used to understand them,
260
00:16:04,880 --> 00:16:06,320
by the Inmarsat company.
261
00:16:08,040 --> 00:16:11,840
At the time, I was still working with
my colleagues in the Independent Group.
262
00:16:12,720 --> 00:16:16,520
They were this kind of
amateur band of self-styled experts,
263
00:16:16,600 --> 00:16:19,720
who are obsessed with data and facts.
264
00:16:20,640 --> 00:16:22,280
We exchanged information,
265
00:16:23,000 --> 00:16:27,160
about 18 of us, where we were working
around the clock on it.
266
00:16:28,120 --> 00:16:31,880
I became very,
very involved on a daily basis,
267
00:16:31,960 --> 00:16:34,920
corresponding with people
in the Independent Group.
268
00:16:35,520 --> 00:16:39,760
And also people
at CNN and other news organizations.
269
00:16:39,840 --> 00:16:41,360
I know it's complicated,
270
00:16:41,440 --> 00:16:43,200
but what do you see
as the biggest problem?
271
00:16:43,280 --> 00:16:46,800
The biggest problem is that Inmarsat
hasn't released enough detail
272
00:16:46,880 --> 00:16:51,080
to allow outsiders
to confirm any of their analysis.
273
00:16:51,160 --> 00:16:53,880
Really, all the faith
has been in this data.
274
00:16:58,360 --> 00:17:02,320
Finally, the Malaysians
did release all of the data
275
00:17:03,120 --> 00:17:05,240
gotten from the Inmarsat company.
276
00:17:07,320 --> 00:17:10,440
Inside the report
was a paragraph that said,
277
00:17:11,000 --> 00:17:13,160
this piece of equipment
278
00:17:13,240 --> 00:17:16,720
that controlled the plane's communication
with the satellite
279
00:17:17,240 --> 00:17:20,440
had been turned off
when everything else was turned off
280
00:17:20,960 --> 00:17:22,800
and then it came back to life.
281
00:17:24,600 --> 00:17:28,760
That, to me,
changed the entire tenor of the subject.
282
00:17:29,600 --> 00:17:33,680
Because if you wanted
to abscond with an airplane,
283
00:17:33,760 --> 00:17:37,360
and if you wanted to turn it off
and make it disappear from a screen...
284
00:17:39,000 --> 00:17:41,480
why would you turn the system back on?
285
00:17:42,760 --> 00:17:46,120
Maybe there was something really wrong
286
00:17:47,840 --> 00:17:49,400
with that Inmarsat data.
287
00:17:50,160 --> 00:17:51,800
Maybe it had been tampered with.
288
00:17:55,720 --> 00:17:58,640
So I spent a lot of time
trying to figure out
289
00:17:58,720 --> 00:18:01,720
how could you turn the box off
and back on again?
290
00:18:03,160 --> 00:18:05,200
And I quickly learned that
291
00:18:05,280 --> 00:18:08,000
most airline pilots
are not trained how to do it.
292
00:18:08,080 --> 00:18:10,440
The airlines don't want them to do it.
293
00:18:10,520 --> 00:18:13,840
So there is no
on and off switch in the cockpit.
294
00:18:15,800 --> 00:18:19,560
So this is the main equipment center
of a commercial airliner.
295
00:18:19,640 --> 00:18:23,280
This is where essentially all the brains
and the electronics...
296
00:18:23,360 --> 00:18:26,720
The 777 uses electronics
to do everything.
297
00:18:26,800 --> 00:18:31,400
All of this resides
inside the electronics bay.
298
00:18:31,480 --> 00:18:35,520
Effectively, the electronic brain
of the whole plane.
299
00:18:35,600 --> 00:18:37,520
...equipment racks where...
300
00:18:37,600 --> 00:18:41,040
And, in there,
you can switch off this equipment.
301
00:18:43,440 --> 00:18:47,800
And you can deactivate the system
by pulling those. You've got relays.
302
00:18:47,880 --> 00:18:52,080
So the question is, then,
"How do you access the electronics bay?"
303
00:18:52,760 --> 00:18:54,880
And this is the part
that really blew my mind.
304
00:18:57,360 --> 00:19:00,520
The electronics bay
is under an unlocked hatch,
305
00:19:01,320 --> 00:19:05,200
under a piece of carpet
at the front of the first-class cabin.
306
00:19:07,520 --> 00:19:11,600
Effectively anybody on that plane
can pull up a carpet...
307
00:19:13,280 --> 00:19:15,000
and have control of the airplane.
308
00:19:22,760 --> 00:19:25,800
There's a hatch that leads to
the avionics compartment,
309
00:19:25,880 --> 00:19:28,600
or the E&E bay, as we call it.
310
00:19:32,080 --> 00:19:35,640
And that hatch is in between
the first class and the cockpit.
311
00:19:38,720 --> 00:19:41,360
So, there is a possibility that
312
00:19:41,440 --> 00:19:44,560
somebody could have got
into the avionics compartment.
313
00:19:45,600 --> 00:19:49,040
And they can disable
the communication system.
314
00:19:52,280 --> 00:19:55,800
Suddenly, it's not so clear
that it was the pilot after all.
315
00:19:55,880 --> 00:19:58,880
It's like an Agatha Christie mystery.
316
00:19:58,960 --> 00:20:02,120
Everyone in the manor house
is now a suspect.
317
00:20:14,840 --> 00:20:16,680
We were starting to think,
318
00:20:16,720 --> 00:20:19,640
"How can they tell us they don't know?
It's impossible."
319
00:20:23,040 --> 00:20:25,480
When you follow the story closely,
320
00:20:25,560 --> 00:20:27,880
you can only conclude
that none of it makes sense.
321
00:20:27,960 --> 00:20:30,400
We're not being shown proof
of the radar sighting.
322
00:20:30,480 --> 00:20:33,520
"We can't find the plane.
We can't find debris."
323
00:20:33,600 --> 00:20:35,800
We're not being shown anything. Nothing.
324
00:20:36,360 --> 00:20:39,240
We're asked to believe in pure nonsense.
325
00:20:46,320 --> 00:20:49,240
Someone I knew told me,
326
00:20:50,000 --> 00:20:52,120
"Mr. B would like to meet you."
327
00:20:53,240 --> 00:20:54,920
This person had information.
328
00:20:55,640 --> 00:20:57,920
He's someone who's very connected.
329
00:20:59,200 --> 00:21:01,160
Connected to the secret services.
330
00:21:06,400 --> 00:21:08,120
The first time I met him,
331
00:21:09,760 --> 00:21:11,480
the first thing he told me...
332
00:21:16,000 --> 00:21:19,040
"The Americans know
full well what happened."
333
00:21:21,480 --> 00:21:25,440
"Because there were two American AWACS
334
00:21:26,040 --> 00:21:29,840
that were monitoring the area
at the time the plane disappeared."
335
00:21:31,800 --> 00:21:37,400
These AWACS are Boeing planes
with a huge radar like a mushroom on top.
336
00:21:38,040 --> 00:21:43,400
And this radar basically monitors
everything underneath the Boeing.
337
00:21:45,120 --> 00:21:47,600
It's like a small satellite above
338
00:21:47,680 --> 00:21:51,000
the Earth that sees everything
that's happening in a 600-km radius.
339
00:21:51,080 --> 00:21:53,920
Mr. B said these two planes must have
340
00:21:54,000 --> 00:21:59,120
perfectly tracked the MH370,
regardless of its state at any moment.
341
00:21:59,200 --> 00:22:02,000
They know where it crashed.
They know where it is.
342
00:22:05,280 --> 00:22:07,680
It's difficult
when you receive information
343
00:22:07,760 --> 00:22:10,760
saying the Americans are involved.
344
00:22:10,840 --> 00:22:13,520
I know that if I say it,
people won't believe me.
345
00:22:14,120 --> 00:22:17,000
But when I understood
there was a "pact of silence,"
346
00:22:17,080 --> 00:22:19,800
that we were being lied to
and that we had to do something,
347
00:22:19,880 --> 00:22:22,080
I told myself, "Time to communicate."
348
00:22:23,840 --> 00:22:25,920
Ghyslain Wattrelos, good morning.
349
00:22:26,000 --> 00:22:28,680
You're fighting to understand
what happened...
350
00:22:28,760 --> 00:22:30,880
I accepted
every single interview
351
00:22:30,960 --> 00:22:34,840
to say "We're being lied to.
Journalists must join in."
352
00:22:34,920 --> 00:22:37,760
It's obvious that,
given the information I've received,
353
00:22:37,840 --> 00:22:40,600
there are people whose job is
to keep me away from the truth.
354
00:22:43,560 --> 00:22:45,120
Until one day I thought,
355
00:22:45,200 --> 00:22:50,400
"I'm not performing at work, so let's quit
and go all in on the investigation."
356
00:22:50,480 --> 00:22:51,600
So that's what I did.
357
00:22:51,680 --> 00:22:53,400
Good evening,
Ghyslain Wattrelos.
358
00:22:53,480 --> 00:22:56,880
You have lost your wife
and your two youngest children...
359
00:22:56,960 --> 00:22:58,480
We're being fed nonsense.
360
00:22:59,320 --> 00:23:01,320
We can't get any information.
361
00:23:01,400 --> 00:23:04,400
We have to get together
to do something ourselves.
362
00:23:04,480 --> 00:23:08,000
So that's when
we started coordinating with the families.
363
00:23:13,840 --> 00:23:16,040
The families... um...
364
00:23:16,120 --> 00:23:19,360
from different countries gathered,
365
00:23:19,440 --> 00:23:22,320
which was very important.
366
00:23:22,400 --> 00:23:24,880
In doing so, we could make up
367
00:23:25,640 --> 00:23:30,360
for the deficiencies
of the non-transparent investigation.
368
00:23:30,440 --> 00:23:31,280
Uh...
369
00:23:31,360 --> 00:23:33,640
and information coming from Malaysia.
370
00:23:33,720 --> 00:23:35,360
It was pretty risky.
371
00:23:35,440 --> 00:23:36,920
It was an investigation.
372
00:23:37,000 --> 00:23:39,520
But we were going
against more powerful forces than us.
373
00:23:39,600 --> 00:23:42,000
We're here to hand a petition in
to the president
374
00:23:42,080 --> 00:23:43,280
because it's been a year
375
00:23:43,360 --> 00:23:46,040
and they have said nothing
and done nothing.
376
00:23:54,280 --> 00:23:57,720
What we did was,
we pressed charges for "act of terrorism."
377
00:24:00,080 --> 00:24:01,440
Why an "act of terrorism?"
378
00:24:01,520 --> 00:24:04,480
Well, because terrorism ranks highest
379
00:24:05,760 --> 00:24:07,720
on the hierarchy of judicial matters.
380
00:24:09,240 --> 00:24:12,960
In France, the moment you press charges,
judges are assigned
381
00:24:13,040 --> 00:24:15,760
and the judges
have to conduct an investigation.
382
00:24:17,800 --> 00:24:19,040
Hello, how are you?
383
00:24:19,080 --> 00:24:20,400
- Very well, and you?
- Very well.
384
00:24:28,480 --> 00:24:30,680
The thing you
need to realize is that,
385
00:24:30,760 --> 00:24:34,120
across the globe, there's only
one source of judicial information.
386
00:24:34,200 --> 00:24:35,200
It's here.
387
00:24:35,800 --> 00:24:38,520
There's a truth to uncover.
It's not a mystery.
388
00:24:40,480 --> 00:24:42,400
We owe it to everyone.
389
00:24:42,920 --> 00:24:45,280
Not only to Ghyslain but also to those
390
00:24:46,280 --> 00:24:49,840
who didn't get that opportunity
to have investigating magistrates
391
00:24:49,920 --> 00:24:52,240
in their own countries.
We owe it to everyone.
392
00:24:54,280 --> 00:24:56,320
I find myself in a fight,
393
00:24:56,400 --> 00:24:58,640
and this fight keeps me going.
394
00:24:58,720 --> 00:25:02,840
I'm just trying to get to the truth,
for myself and everybody else.
395
00:25:09,920 --> 00:25:13,000
Many times,
the name of Ghyslain Wattrelos,
396
00:25:13,080 --> 00:25:15,160
the French man, the angry French man,
397
00:25:15,240 --> 00:25:17,600
uh, was put out to me.
398
00:25:17,680 --> 00:25:21,760
And eventually, I decided
to see for myself what he had to say.
399
00:25:24,080 --> 00:25:25,720
One day,
400
00:25:25,800 --> 00:25:29,680
someone from the newspaper Le Monde
contacts me and tells me,
401
00:25:30,200 --> 00:25:34,800
"I'm the correspondent for Le Monde.
It would be great if we could chat."
402
00:25:35,560 --> 00:25:38,720
Ghyslain told me
that he had been approached by
403
00:25:38,800 --> 00:25:42,880
a senior member
of the intelligence service,
404
00:25:42,960 --> 00:25:46,960
who told him that the Americans knew
405
00:25:47,040 --> 00:25:48,800
exactly what had happened.
406
00:25:48,880 --> 00:25:53,000
And that two US AWACS planes
were involved.
407
00:25:54,280 --> 00:25:55,880
When I met this source,
408
00:25:56,480 --> 00:25:59,800
I established for myself
that he was a credible,
409
00:25:59,880 --> 00:26:03,640
a genuine member
of the intelligence community.
410
00:26:05,840 --> 00:26:08,920
He was just one more voice
411
00:26:09,000 --> 00:26:10,240
telling me that
412
00:26:10,320 --> 00:26:12,720
the true story of MH370
413
00:26:12,800 --> 00:26:16,560
is completely different
than the official narrative.
414
00:26:25,520 --> 00:26:28,680
There were some
kind of fringe characters who were
415
00:26:28,760 --> 00:26:32,320
making noises about maybe the
Americans had covered it up.
416
00:26:32,400 --> 00:26:35,120
Um, but especially after
what happened to MH17,
417
00:26:35,200 --> 00:26:38,840
it seemed much more likely
that the Russians were involved.
418
00:26:40,760 --> 00:26:43,480
Now, originally,
thanks to the Inmarsat data,
419
00:26:43,560 --> 00:26:46,760
there were these two routes,
north and south.
420
00:26:47,560 --> 00:26:50,280
I started to worry about the possibility
421
00:26:50,360 --> 00:26:53,400
that somebody aboard the plane,
422
00:26:53,480 --> 00:26:56,440
who was sophisticated
and had malicious intent,
423
00:26:56,520 --> 00:27:01,200
could have deliberately changed
the Inmarsat data,
424
00:27:01,280 --> 00:27:04,240
in order to make
the plane look like it went south,
425
00:27:04,320 --> 00:27:05,880
when it really went north.
426
00:27:08,320 --> 00:27:09,680
It turns out
427
00:27:10,360 --> 00:27:12,240
that on Boeing airplanes,
428
00:27:12,320 --> 00:27:16,040
it is physically possible
to alter the data,
429
00:27:16,120 --> 00:27:19,920
which allows you to determine
which of these two routes is right.
430
00:27:21,120 --> 00:27:23,120
It was a eureka moment.
431
00:27:26,200 --> 00:27:30,400
Because now we have
an alternate explanation
432
00:27:31,600 --> 00:27:33,240
for what happened to this plane.
433
00:27:36,560 --> 00:27:38,560
If the plane went north,
434
00:27:38,640 --> 00:27:40,440
it would have wound up
435
00:27:40,520 --> 00:27:43,280
at the final ping in Kazakhstan.
436
00:27:44,680 --> 00:27:49,640
A poor country in Central Asia that is not
capable of a sophisticated hacking attack,
437
00:27:50,280 --> 00:27:53,040
but which is a client state of Russia.
438
00:27:54,360 --> 00:27:58,400
Now, remember that
Russia had shot down MH17,
439
00:27:58,480 --> 00:28:01,120
a sister airplane of MH370.
440
00:28:01,200 --> 00:28:04,480
It had been blasted out
of the sky over eastern Ukraine.
441
00:28:06,000 --> 00:28:09,760
So, my prime suspect
442
00:28:10,400 --> 00:28:15,400
was that the same intelligence service
was also involved in MH370.
443
00:28:15,920 --> 00:28:18,360
That, in fact,
there was potentially a link
444
00:28:18,440 --> 00:28:21,560
between these two
very similar aircraft accidents.
445
00:28:23,040 --> 00:28:24,160
At that point,
446
00:28:24,920 --> 00:28:27,000
I looked in the passenger manifest
447
00:28:27,600 --> 00:28:33,200
and I saw that there were three ethnically
Russian men on board the plane that night.
448
00:28:37,280 --> 00:28:39,480
When I looked at the seating diagram,
449
00:28:40,120 --> 00:28:41,320
my eyebrows went up,
450
00:28:42,280 --> 00:28:45,080
because one of them was sitting
451
00:28:45,160 --> 00:28:48,840
about 15 feet from the unlocked hatch
into the electronics bay,
452
00:28:48,920 --> 00:28:51,040
at the front of the first-class cabin.
453
00:28:54,480 --> 00:28:59,400
The next question was, "Well, what would
the motive be for Russia doing this?"
454
00:29:11,560 --> 00:29:16,760
Reports have surfaced
of Russian troops landing in Crimea.
455
00:29:16,840 --> 00:29:20,080
Moscow has indeed gone ahead
with an armed invasion of...
456
00:29:20,160 --> 00:29:22,960
MH370 happened in the context
457
00:29:23,040 --> 00:29:27,320
of Russia's invasion of Crimea in 2014.
458
00:29:27,920 --> 00:29:32,040
The crisis in the Ukraine has escalated
and taken a new turn this morning...
459
00:29:32,120 --> 00:29:35,480
Several hundred Russian troops
have landed in the Crimea region.
460
00:29:35,560 --> 00:29:39,200
The networks, the newspapers,
the mainline media, everyone
461
00:29:39,920 --> 00:29:42,680
is lasering in on this event.
462
00:29:43,200 --> 00:29:45,920
And when MH370 happened
463
00:29:47,200 --> 00:29:51,760
it had the desirable effect of
stopping anybody from talking about that.
464
00:29:52,360 --> 00:29:55,760
Sir, where is the focus
of your search right now?
465
00:29:55,840 --> 00:29:57,720
Can you confirm if the plane
has turned back?
466
00:29:58,640 --> 00:30:00,280
You can't deny
467
00:30:00,360 --> 00:30:02,440
that the disappearance of MH370
468
00:30:02,520 --> 00:30:06,960
was a perfectly timed
and spectacularly convenient distraction
469
00:30:07,040 --> 00:30:11,040
for Russia from the condemnation
it was facing from the rest of the world.
470
00:30:13,000 --> 00:30:15,320
As crazy as it seemed, even to me,
471
00:30:15,840 --> 00:30:17,440
I had to keep going
472
00:30:18,040 --> 00:30:20,280
as long as this possibility existed.
473
00:30:20,360 --> 00:30:23,200
So eventually, I laid it all out.
474
00:30:24,080 --> 00:30:25,600
This is how I think it went down.
475
00:30:42,440 --> 00:30:44,440
It's 1:15 in the morning.
476
00:30:45,480 --> 00:30:50,440
Zaharie is flying over the South China Sea
in the dark of a cool, calm night.
477
00:30:52,360 --> 00:30:54,840
Passengers, tired and anticipating
478
00:30:54,920 --> 00:30:56,480
a boring overnight flight.
479
00:31:00,160 --> 00:31:02,240
The three Russians aboard the plane
480
00:31:02,760 --> 00:31:04,400
begin their operation.
481
00:31:11,880 --> 00:31:13,640
Somewhere over the South China Sea,
482
00:31:15,640 --> 00:31:17,160
someone's making a ruckus
483
00:31:17,240 --> 00:31:19,000
near the first-class compartment.
484
00:31:19,880 --> 00:31:23,480
The flight attendants
hurry to see what's going on.
485
00:31:24,880 --> 00:31:25,880
As this happens,
486
00:31:25,920 --> 00:31:28,360
the Russian in first class slips forward.
487
00:31:40,280 --> 00:31:41,480
He lifts the carpet...
488
00:31:46,080 --> 00:31:47,080
raises a hatch
489
00:31:48,960 --> 00:31:50,760
into the electronics bay.
490
00:32:05,120 --> 00:32:06,320
Down in the hatch,
491
00:32:06,400 --> 00:32:09,200
the Russian is surrounded
by banks of computers.
492
00:32:10,960 --> 00:32:14,640
He's in the nerve center
of the airplane, the electronic brain.
493
00:32:16,480 --> 00:32:20,240
He plugs into the computer
of the plane's flight control system.
494
00:32:27,040 --> 00:32:31,040
The plane moves closer and closer
to the edge of Malaysian airspace.
495
00:32:34,960 --> 00:32:38,480
Malaysian 370
contact Ho Chi Minh, 120 decimal 9.
496
00:32:38,560 --> 00:32:39,560
Good night.
497
00:32:42,400 --> 00:32:44,760
Uh, good night, Malaysian 370.
498
00:32:52,080 --> 00:32:53,520
The people on board the plane
499
00:32:53,600 --> 00:32:56,320
still have no idea
what's happening or why.
500
00:32:58,800 --> 00:33:01,760
Now the plane
is in this operational no man's land,
501
00:33:01,840 --> 00:33:03,400
where nobody's looking at them.
502
00:33:05,400 --> 00:33:08,000
Inside the electronics bay,
503
00:33:09,080 --> 00:33:11,520
the Russian agent turns the equipment on.
504
00:33:20,080 --> 00:33:23,600
The plane vanishes from
air traffic controllers' radar screens.
505
00:33:28,200 --> 00:33:30,760
He now has
complete control of the aircraft.
506
00:33:32,000 --> 00:33:36,080
The captain and the co-pilot are confused
as the lights blink on their display.
507
00:33:38,680 --> 00:33:41,760
And none of their communications
equipment is working.
508
00:33:43,360 --> 00:33:45,200
And then even more shockingly...
509
00:33:47,880 --> 00:33:51,200
the plane suddenly banks
violently to the left.
510
00:33:53,280 --> 00:33:56,240
The plane is in maneuver
that neither one of them has commanded.
511
00:34:00,360 --> 00:34:01,760
Down in the electronics bay,
512
00:34:01,840 --> 00:34:02,920
the Russian agent
513
00:34:03,000 --> 00:34:05,480
has started to depressurize the airplane,
514
00:34:05,560 --> 00:34:07,880
letting the air out of the cabin.
515
00:34:08,480 --> 00:34:12,840
At the same time, he turns a knob
on an oxygen bottle stowed on the wall,
516
00:34:13,600 --> 00:34:18,440
which cut off the emergency oxygen systems
that the pilot and the co-pilot rely on.
517
00:34:21,080 --> 00:34:22,200
In the cabin,
518
00:34:22,800 --> 00:34:25,160
the masks fall down from the ceiling.
519
00:34:27,400 --> 00:34:31,040
The flight crew
suddenly realizes that they can't breathe.
520
00:34:38,720 --> 00:34:40,160
In the minutes that follow,
521
00:34:40,240 --> 00:34:43,320
the captain and co-pilot
lose consciousness.
522
00:34:48,400 --> 00:34:49,960
And the cabin falls quiet.
523
00:34:58,040 --> 00:35:02,600
The Russian agent in the electronics bay
has turned the plane towards the northwest
524
00:35:02,680 --> 00:35:05,880
and deliberately altered
the Inmarsat data.
525
00:35:06,400 --> 00:35:08,320
Now, if anyone looks at the
526
00:35:08,400 --> 00:35:11,720
trail of digital breadcrumbs
that the plane's about to leave,
527
00:35:11,800 --> 00:35:15,640
they'll misinterpret the signal
as meaning that the plane has gone south.
528
00:35:15,720 --> 00:35:18,640
When in fact,
their plane is actually going north.
529
00:35:24,960 --> 00:35:28,120
MH370 proceeds onward through the night,
530
00:35:28,200 --> 00:35:31,000
receding gradually from its phantom twin.
531
00:35:33,440 --> 00:35:35,000
And ultimately winding up
532
00:35:36,880 --> 00:35:38,920
over the deserts of central Kazakhstan.
533
00:35:43,080 --> 00:35:45,400
For the hijackers,
it's mission accomplished.
534
00:35:52,360 --> 00:35:54,320
I knew that it sounded crazy.
535
00:35:54,400 --> 00:35:56,040
I knew that it was far-fetched.
536
00:35:56,120 --> 00:35:58,400
I knew that people would have
a hard time swallowing it,
537
00:35:58,480 --> 00:36:01,240
but even though it might
torpedo my reputation,
538
00:36:01,320 --> 00:36:02,840
I felt like I had to go public.
539
00:36:02,920 --> 00:36:06,320
I had to bring people's attention
to the problem
540
00:36:06,400 --> 00:36:09,680
that this plane possessed a vulnerability.
541
00:36:10,480 --> 00:36:14,560
He thinks it's possible
Russian hijackers sent the plane north.
542
00:36:14,640 --> 00:36:17,000
Do you really think it went to Kazakhstan?
543
00:36:17,080 --> 00:36:20,800
Well, it's not something I believe.
It's a hypothesis that I pieced together.
544
00:36:20,880 --> 00:36:24,080
I went on TV and it was scary.
545
00:36:24,720 --> 00:36:27,400
I felt like my ass
was hanging out the window.
546
00:36:27,480 --> 00:36:29,761
What reaction are you getting
from this theory?
547
00:36:29,840 --> 00:36:32,920
It's a lot to swallow, I grant you.
548
00:36:33,000 --> 00:36:36,520
Are you getting calls
from people saying this seems realistic?
549
00:36:36,600 --> 00:36:39,400
In the comments sections,
a lot of people are outraged, furious.
550
00:36:39,480 --> 00:36:40,880
Some people are very angry at me.
551
00:36:40,960 --> 00:36:43,280
Nobody goes into the E&E bay,
552
00:36:43,360 --> 00:36:46,960
reprograms the BFO, lands in Kazakhstan!
553
00:36:47,040 --> 00:36:49,560
I'm intimately familiar with
554
00:36:49,640 --> 00:36:53,760
how that satellite system works,
as are a number of my colleagues,
555
00:36:53,840 --> 00:36:58,040
and we're absolutely certain
that the plane turned south and not north.
556
00:36:58,800 --> 00:37:02,000
It was surprising that Jeff decided to
557
00:37:02,080 --> 00:37:03,600
take off on this route.
558
00:37:05,760 --> 00:37:08,240
I was correct in thinking that
559
00:37:08,920 --> 00:37:11,200
I would get a frosty reception
from some quarters.
560
00:37:11,280 --> 00:37:12,760
The Independent Group,
561
00:37:12,840 --> 00:37:17,000
which had staked its reputation
on the idea that the plane went south,
562
00:37:17,080 --> 00:37:19,800
did not want to brook
any opposition from me.
563
00:37:20,600 --> 00:37:21,440
They kicked me out.
564
00:37:24,600 --> 00:37:26,480
Jeff's work, in my opinion,
565
00:37:26,560 --> 00:37:30,880
is simply a fiction that he has woven
566
00:37:30,960 --> 00:37:33,240
and convinced himself is feasible.
567
00:37:33,320 --> 00:37:36,280
But it's all based on fantasies.
568
00:37:36,360 --> 00:37:38,640
It's not based on reality.
569
00:37:41,560 --> 00:37:44,000
I knew the weaknesses of my own case.
570
00:37:44,080 --> 00:37:48,440
And I knew the strengths of my own case.
But the proposition that I was making
571
00:37:49,360 --> 00:37:50,600
was easy to ridicule.
572
00:37:51,800 --> 00:37:55,080
You think that somebody
possibly tampered with the satellite data.
573
00:37:55,160 --> 00:37:57,440
But the company
that is behind this system...
574
00:37:57,520 --> 00:37:59,296
- I think it's called Inmarsat?
- That's right.
575
00:37:59,320 --> 00:38:02,760
...says they haven't used
this in the past to track planes.
576
00:38:02,840 --> 00:38:05,400
The idea that now it's being used
and then also tampered with
577
00:38:05,480 --> 00:38:06,720
feels far-fetched to them.
578
00:38:08,040 --> 00:38:11,840
The idea that someone, um, predicts
579
00:38:11,920 --> 00:38:15,160
that we would analyze
this data in this way,
580
00:38:15,680 --> 00:38:18,880
um, when we'd never done it
in the past before,
581
00:38:18,960 --> 00:38:20,640
doesn't seem particularly credible at all.
582
00:38:22,480 --> 00:38:24,720
Anyone who gets into the hatch
583
00:38:24,800 --> 00:38:26,440
can disable the transponder
584
00:38:26,520 --> 00:38:29,600
and disable the communication systems.
585
00:38:30,120 --> 00:38:35,160
But it is impossible to fly the aircraft
from the avionics compartment.
586
00:38:35,240 --> 00:38:36,680
It is impossible.
587
00:38:38,480 --> 00:38:39,880
I've gone deep on this.
588
00:38:39,960 --> 00:38:41,000
I know that.
589
00:38:41,760 --> 00:38:44,400
I know it sounds like something
out of a Tom Clancy novel.
590
00:38:45,440 --> 00:38:47,600
But the fact is,
591
00:38:47,680 --> 00:38:50,320
even if there's no way that anyone
592
00:38:50,400 --> 00:38:52,960
could fly a plane
from the electronics bay,
593
00:38:53,040 --> 00:38:56,360
we know for a fact
that it is physically possible,
594
00:38:56,440 --> 00:38:59,880
from inside of it,
to turn off all the electronics
595
00:38:59,960 --> 00:39:02,400
that make the plane
visible to the outside world.
596
00:39:04,040 --> 00:39:05,320
So my scenario,
597
00:39:05,400 --> 00:39:06,920
as crazy as it might seem,
598
00:39:07,000 --> 00:39:10,160
at least attempted to explain
599
00:39:11,240 --> 00:39:12,960
the disappearance of MH370.
600
00:39:15,000 --> 00:39:16,120
That all gets lost.
601
00:39:16,920 --> 00:39:20,240
And I'm just lumped
with the Loch Ness Monster and Bigfoot.
602
00:39:26,040 --> 00:39:28,880
But, the fact is, if the data was right
603
00:39:29,800 --> 00:39:32,160
and it had told us where the plane went,
604
00:39:32,240 --> 00:39:35,480
how come they hadn't managed
to find a single piece of it?
605
00:39:35,560 --> 00:39:38,640
If your data is right,
the plane should be there.
606
00:39:38,720 --> 00:39:39,960
Where is the plane?
607
00:39:40,680 --> 00:39:43,320
Where is the wreckage? Show me the plane.
608
00:39:45,320 --> 00:39:48,080
This is CNN breaking news.
609
00:39:49,840 --> 00:39:52,800
And we are following
breaking news just in to CNN.
610
00:39:52,880 --> 00:39:56,480
It is too soon to confirm right now,
but we can tell you at this point
611
00:39:56,560 --> 00:39:59,520
that some debris has been found
in La Réunion...
612
00:39:59,600 --> 00:40:02,600
La Réunion island
is being checked for any connection
613
00:40:02,680 --> 00:40:04,600
to missing Malaysian flight 370.
614
00:40:04,680 --> 00:40:08,560
The piece was found on a rocky beach on
the French territory in the Indian Ocean.
615
00:40:08,640 --> 00:40:12,440
Boeing's investigators believe it is,
in fact, a piece of a wing.
616
00:40:12,520 --> 00:40:14,520
Perhaps a flap from a Boeing 777...
617
00:40:14,600 --> 00:40:16,480
Everyone's wondering,
618
00:40:16,560 --> 00:40:21,040
"Is this a remnant of the missing
Malaysia Airlines flight 370?"
619
00:40:22,600 --> 00:40:24,560
When the flaperon was found
620
00:40:25,560 --> 00:40:26,960
I was not surprised.
621
00:40:27,600 --> 00:40:30,320
This is exactly
what I had said would happen,
622
00:40:30,400 --> 00:40:34,760
that the first piece of this plane would
be found by someone walking on the beach
623
00:40:34,840 --> 00:40:36,960
somewhere in the Indian Ocean.
624
00:40:38,200 --> 00:40:40,960
New developments involving
that piece of debris
625
00:40:41,040 --> 00:40:42,280
discovered off eastern...
626
00:40:42,360 --> 00:40:44,240
I knew immediately
627
00:40:44,320 --> 00:40:46,480
I wanted to be the one to solve it.
628
00:40:47,120 --> 00:40:49,720
I wanted to find the plane
wherever it was.
