EP#278 | DSD | The Toronto Plane Crash: What Really Happened?
📄 Episode Overview
In Episode #278 of Deep Shallow Dive, Ray Doustdar goes full investigation mode on the now-infamous Delta crash at Toronto Pearson Airport. From sketchy video timelines and staged passenger interviews to inconsistent crash footage and pilot lingo that doesn’t add up, Ray walks through all the red flags in this so-called “accident.” Throw in AI deepfake potential, air traffic control silence, and contradictory witness statements, and this isn’t just a plane crash — it’s a case study in modern media manipulation.
🧠 Key Takeaways
• The first viral footage came from a passenger walking off the plane calmly — while supposedly just surviving a flip. • No security camera footage was released until nearly 12 hours later, despite 3,000+ high-def cameras at Pearson. • Three main videos all have suspicious audio, strange editing, and lack of proper protocol. • One video appears to be filmed from inside another cockpit — with someone talking to “Tower” casually. • The main passenger interviewed, John Nelson, contradicted himself across media appearances. • Joe Rogan even weighed in on crisis actors and AI-powered propaganda realism.
