A man has reportedly admitted deliberately crashing a plane to get views on YouTube. Trevor Jacob, 29, posted a video him bailing out a plane before it crashed in December 2021. It has over 2.9 million views.
The BBC says he has now admitted filming the video as part of a sponsorship deal and could face up to 20 years in prison for 'destruction and concealment with the intent to obstruct a federal investigation'.
Mr Jacob left the airfield in the plane with a parachute, cameras and a selfie stick.
