Episode Transcript

Malcolm Collins:Simone, I’m excited to be here with you today. Genuinely excited to be here today because today, there was almost a second nine eleven in which a large seven thirty seven MAX was hijacked. A copilot stabbed the pilot and attempted to kill them. And Did

Simone Collins:it or is the pilot okay?

Malcolm Collins:The plane had passengers on it, 27 of whom were children. Everyone survived. The pilot survived. The the children all survived. Everyone survived. Everyone’s okay. And the story is wild. Well, not okay. I mean, the guy was stabbed, and he’s in the hospital. It looks like he’s gonna recover.

Speaker 10:Angela. Angela. This is the 09/11 of birthday parties.

Speaker 11:I’m sorry.

Malcolm Collins:And every detail of this story is wackier than the next. For some highlights here, the plane was saved by a Russian and Ukrainian pilot.

Simone Collins:What? Wait. Who was not in

Malcolm Collins:the cockpit? Who were not in the cockpit. They replaced the pilots who were in the cockpit.

Speaker 4:So there has been additional reporting since then that these two may have flown the plane in, but the guy who actually stabilized the plane was one of the Israelis who broke into the cockpit to subdue the guy and was a plumber who learned to fly based on a TV show that he saw.

Malcolm Collins:The the guy who ended up being a group of guys, but one of them who we know definitively was involved with beating up and taking out the terrorists Okay. Was a CEO Jewish banker of a of a relatively big bank. I mean, was, like, worse. I was checking about a $150,000,000 in value or something like that. So, like, he was Jew maxing, you know, CEO of a bank. Oh, wow.

Simone Collins:Yeah. Okay. Sorry. That didn’t I didn’t it didn’t land with me at first. Oh my gosh. What do we know why this man attempted to

Malcolm Collins:Yeah. Because he was a Muslim.

Simone Collins:Come on. There’s more behind

Malcolm Collins:every Muslim. That is why. I mean, Simone, I think you misunderstand that a lot of Muslims think they have a mandate to kill the Jews.

Simone Collins:Was there a manifesto? Was there an organization? Has ISIS claimed responsibility even though they often do that when they’re not actually responsible? Okay.

Malcolm Collins:No one has claimed responsibility yet. The guy had been working for the company for only seven months.

Simone Collins:Oh.

Malcolm Collins:and so we don’t know. The, right now, the claims are that he was Indian of, ethnicity. Oh, boy. Although, you know, I can see why The UAE might want not wanna say if he’s something else, but there’s a lot of Indian Muslims in The UAE. So, you know, very well could have.

Simone Collins:What airline was this?

Malcolm Collins:so, well, let’s let’s go into it. Yeah. Fly Dubai flight FZ1073 from Dubai to Tel Aviv on the 09/30/2026, a Boeing seven thirty seven MAX carrying about 140 174 passengers. the large majority were Israelis, one hundred and sixty six and twenty seven of whom were children. Oh. Had a mid air attack in the cockpit. After the attack, it it plunged 14,000 to 17,400 feet.

Simone Collins:Oh, you’re not feeling on roller coasters when your stomach just goes

Malcolm Collins:They did this attack in taking back the plane while the plane is, like, falling out of the sky, and the terrorist is desperately trying to break the the console.

Simone Collins:Oh, so that there’s no way to right the plane?

Malcolm Collins:So that there’s no way to right the plane. Yeah. And, like, every stage of this is really heroic. So, like, with his last ounce of strength so because after 09:11, they reinforced the cockpit doors. So no matter what, they wouldn’t have been able to break in.

Simone Collins:They never thought that the call would be coming from inside the cockpit. That’s terrifying.

Malcolm Collins:And so the pilot was the last ounce of his strength, was able to unclip the cockpit door Wow. To hit the release while the people were there trying to break in.

Simone Collins:Thank goodness. I mean, wow. You get stabbed, and you and the plane’s flying all over the place. Where was he stabbed? Know where he was stabbed on his body?

Malcolm Collins:I’ll ask.

Simone Collins:You know, I just while you’re asking, when you came into my room, my office this this afternoon and were like, Simone, have you not heard the crazy thing that just happened with, you know, the the airplanes and the skies? And I was like, you’re finally gonna talk about it. And you’re like, yeah. The terrorist attack. And I’m like, wait. What kind of terrorist attack? And I thought you were going to talk about the furry menace. Because The furry menace. Oh my That

Malcolm Collins:was so funny, the Republican senator who doesn’t

Simone Collins:really like furry. I just I brought up his tweet to just relive the moment. A coach Tommy Tuberville. This is senator Tuberville. I know the deranged Democrats don’t like the fact that I called out the insane furry culture this week, but the truth is there is an alarming number of these deranged people working in our airline industry. Don’t believe me? Just a few months ago, pilots were meowing and barking at each other over the radio at DCA. That’s Reagan National Airport. That’s, like, the airport that any self respecting senator would want to take because you don’t wanna fly into Dulles. It is a neighbor of an airport. And I just have to show so it turns out, by the way, he they are actually meowing. I act I I had to download the video because it makes me so happy.

Malcolm Collins:Why did I marry this woman? People making fake furry noises gives you the You guys need to be professional, Tyler.

Simone Collins:That’s you

Malcolm Collins:gonna still flying RJ? Meow. Meow. Meow.

Simone Collins:Meow. But it turns out that for over twenty years, airline pilots have been using this emergency radio frequency to just meow occasionally, and it’s just an inside joke in the pilot world. And I watched this video by this curmudgeonly former retired pilot or whatever who’s like, they need to stop doing this. This is an emergency radio area. Like, obviously, they will stop meowing on the radio when there’s an actual emergency. Let the let the men meow. Okay?

Malcolm Collins:Meow. It’s not gonna block an actual emergency.

Simone Collins:Like, it’s not that’ll someone being like, oh, hello. Blah blah blah. Help. They’re gonna not they’re gonna stop. And I love that they do it, and I love even more than a senator found out that they did it and was like, the furries
