The only thing missing was him thanking sponsors and asking us to like an subscribe before he jumped.

  In the original video he had a Ridge wallet sponsorship read at the beginning of the video. After the initial blowback he re-uploaded the video with the sponsor read removed.

  He actually does (did?) thank a sponsor in the video - Ridge Wallet. It was one of the really off things about the video. Apparently he must have re-uploaded it if it not longer contains the sponsor plug. The things that felt off to me, a non aviation person, on first impression- The opening text about him saying "I didn't think I had the courage to share this video." (This has also been removed in the apparent reupload). The sheer amount of cameras/camera angles for a routine plane ride. Plus constantly pulling out the Ziploc bag full of "ashes" to show the camera. Jumping with a fucking selfie-stick then immediately hiking back to the plane. This one is hard to explain - He's general affect throughout the video coupled with the other videos on his channel. It just seemed like the entire thing was trying to tell a story rather than an almost-tragedy caught on film. At first, as a non aviation person, I didn't know there was a whole engine out procedure he didn't follow. I didn't really question his recommendation to fly with a parachute, and I didn't know that he flys without a parachute in his other videos. I didn't know he bought the plane a month before.
