- 0:42Speaker 2: Okay, let's get into today's stories.
- 1:00Speaker 1: On the morning of January third, twenty thirteen, a thirty
- 1:03Speaker 1: three year old man named Vladimir Cherbov stepped off a
- 1:06Speaker 1: cable car at a ski resort in Russia. He was
- 1:09Speaker 1: standing on the top of a snow covered mountain along
- 1:11Speaker 1: with his friend Denise Beakov and Denise's wife, whose name
- 1:15Speaker 1: was Yakatarina. Vladimir and Denise went to this resort all
- 1:18Speaker 1: the time, usually to snowboard, but on this day they
- 1:21Speaker 1: were not here to snowboard. They were here to try
- 1:24Speaker 1: out an exciting new ride that all their friends had
- 1:26Speaker 1: been talking about recently. It had been Denise's idea to come,
- 1:30Speaker 1: but Vladimir had been totally on board until now now
- 1:34Speaker 1: that he was actually seeing this new ride itself. So
- 1:37Speaker 1: the ride was actually set up straight ahead of them
- 1:40Speaker 1: at the very top of the Beginner's ski slope. Now,
- 1:44Speaker 1: where they got off from the cable car, it wasn't
- 1:46Speaker 1: literally the very top.
- 1:47Speaker 2: Of the mountain. It was like most of the way up.
- 1:49Speaker 1: And when they got off the car, basically there was
- 1:52Speaker 1: an additional stretch of mountain going up, you know, not
- 1:55Speaker 1: particularly steep, but that stretch from you know, the cable
- 1:58Speaker 1: car to the top of this addition stretch was the
- 2:01Speaker 1: Beginner's slope. And so from where they're standing, having just
- 2:03Speaker 1: gotten off, they'd be looking up, you know, this Beginner's
- 2:07Speaker 1: slope and the ride is right there. It's basically on
- 2:10Speaker 1: that slope, and Vladimir, who's looking at the slope, he's
- 2:13Speaker 1: looking at the ride. He could see the ride operator
- 2:16Speaker 1: standing at the top of this slope basically waiting for customers.
- 2:19Speaker 2: To go on this ride.
- 2:21Speaker 1: But to Vladimir, it was kind of weird because you know,
- 2:24Speaker 1: there wasn't really any signage for this new ride, and
- 2:27Speaker 1: there was no line of people at least that he
- 2:29Speaker 1: could see waiting to get on, And considering all the
- 2:32Speaker 1: hype that Vladimir had heard about this ride recently, he'd
- 2:35Speaker 1: expected something much bigger and more well advertised, where he could,
- 2:39Speaker 1: you know, potentially get up here and watch loads of
- 2:41Speaker 1: other people do it.
- 2:42Speaker 2: First before he did it.
- 2:43Speaker 1: And so suddenly Vladimir couldn't help but have just sort
- 2:46Speaker 1: of a bad feeling about this, like why why isn't
- 2:49Speaker 1: anyone else doing this ride?
- 2:51Speaker 2: Like what's going on here?
- 2:52Speaker 1: And so he turned to his friend Denise and he
- 2:55Speaker 1: said he just he had a bad feeling, and he
- 2:57Speaker 1: really wasn't sure if he wanted to do this anymore.
- 2:59Speaker 1: But Denise was like really excited about this, and he
- 3:02Speaker 1: begged Vladimir not to bail on this yet. And you know,
- 3:06Speaker 1: Vladimir could tell that Denise really was very excited he
- 3:09Speaker 1: wanted to try this ride, and he didn't want to
- 3:11Speaker 1: do it alone.
- 3:12Speaker 2: And so Vladimir was like, all right, fine, like let's
- 3:15Speaker 2: go do it.
- 3:15Speaker 1: And so Vladimir, Denise and Denise's wife, Yakatarina. They walk
- 3:20Speaker 1: from where they got off the car all the way
- 3:22Speaker 1: to the top.
- 3:22Speaker 2: Of this bunny slope. And again there's there's no line
- 3:25Speaker 2: for this ride.
- 3:25Speaker 1: It's just this operator sitting up there waiting for anybody
- 3:29Speaker 1: who wants to do this thing. And so the two
- 3:30Speaker 1: men that go up and they paid ten dollars to
- 3:33Speaker 1: the operator, who then in turns said, okay, climb inside,
- 3:37Speaker 1: because the riding compartment, if you will, could hold up
- 3:41Speaker 1: to two people.
- 3:42Speaker 2: And so both Denise and Vladimir climbed inside.
- 3:46Speaker 1: And after they did that, Denise actually handed his phone
- 3:49Speaker 1: off to his wife, Yakatarina, and he told her, you know,
- 3:51Speaker 1: take a video of us. I want to see, you know,
- 3:54Speaker 1: what this ride looks like from the outside. And so Yakatarina,
- 3:57Speaker 1: you know, she's got her phone. She's like, okay, you know,
- 3:58Speaker 1: and she hits and she's filming, and then, you know,
- 4:02Speaker 1: Denise and Vladimir they got tucked up fully inside of
- 4:05Speaker 1: the compartment. The operator in shored it was ready to go,
- 4:08Speaker 1: and then they were off. Now back inside the ride.
- 4:12Speaker 1: Once this thing had actually begun, Vladimir was actually pretty happy.
- 4:16Speaker 1: He had agreed to go because this was actually really fun.
- 4:19Speaker 1: He was positioned in the riding compartment basically directly across
- 4:23Speaker 1: from Denise, who, you know, clearly he too was.
- 4:25Speaker 2: Having a great time.
- 4:26Speaker 1: He was laughing and screaming, you know, and having a
- 4:29Speaker 1: great time. But after just a few seconds, the ride
- 4:32Speaker 1: seemed to like change. It suddenly jerked to the left
- 4:36Speaker 1: and then began going.
- 4:37Speaker 2: Faster and faster and faster.
- 4:39Speaker 1: Now Vladimir and Denise had obviously never done this ride before,
- 4:43Speaker 1: so they didn't know like how it actually was supposed
- 4:46Speaker 1: to feel. But Vladimir felt like, there is no way
- 4:50Speaker 1: this is how it's supposed to feel like this is
- 4:52Speaker 1: this is out of control, Like we cannot be going
- 4:54Speaker 1: this fast.
- 4:54Speaker 2: This is dangerous.
- 4:55Speaker 1: And so as Vladimir was really starting to worry, he
- 4:58Speaker 1: looked over at Denis, who's only, you know, a couple
- 5:01Speaker 1: feet away from him, and he was not laughing and
- 5:04Speaker 1: smiling anymore.
- 5:05Speaker 2: He looked genuinely frightened.
- 5:07Speaker 1: But before either men could really do anything at all,
- 5:10Speaker 1: not that there was much they could do, the ride
- 5:12Speaker 1: took one more horrible lurch and then it just kind
- 5:16Speaker 1: of like slammed down hard, and then everything went black,
- 5:20Speaker 1: it would turn out, Vladimir's bad feeling he got when
- 5:23Speaker 1: he first looked up at the Bunny Hill and you know,
- 5:25Speaker 1: saw the ride basically unattended.
- 5:27Speaker 2: You know, no one was in line, no one was
- 5:29Speaker 2: doing the ride, Like, how could that be?
- 5:31Speaker 1: His bad feeling about that was spot on, because the
- 5:35Speaker 1: ride was not safe at all.
- 5:37Speaker 2: In fact, it wasn't even legal.
- 5:39Speaker 1: The operator, the one who actually put both men inside
- 5:42Speaker 1: of the ride, had stolen the equipment that was the
- 5:46Speaker 1: ride and then set it up in this wildly dangerous
- 5:49Speaker 1: location with no safeguards. So this ride that the two
- 5:53Speaker 1: friends were on was really just a giant inflatable ball
- 5:57Speaker 1: called a zorb. The idea, you know, for this ride,
- 6:00Speaker 1: for this experience, was that the riders would climb inside
- 6:04Speaker 1: of the zorb, almost like a human hamster ball, and
- 6:07Speaker 1: then the zorb would roll down the mountain like a
- 6:10Speaker 1: huge slide. And it was supposed to be safe and fun,
- 6:14Speaker 1: but it was not. And that's because the mountain that
- 6:17Speaker 1: this ride was on was just way too steep and
- 6:20Speaker 1: way too rough, like this was a tragedy waiting to happen.
- 6:25Speaker 1: And so as Denise's and vladimir zorb went flying down
- 6:29Speaker 1: the hill, it bounced a few times and then.
- 6:31Speaker 2: Just totally veered off course.
- 6:33Speaker 1: This is the video that Denise's wife captured from the
- 6:36Speaker 1: top of that bunny hill, basically capturing their entire descent.
- 6:40Speaker 1: You can see at some point one of the workers
- 6:42Speaker 1: try to chase after the zorb as it clearly just
- 6:45Speaker 1: rolls away, but they can't keep up with it, and
- 6:48Speaker 1: then in the final frames you can see the zorb
- 6:50Speaker 1: speeding towards the cliff. The zorb did ultimately go flying
- 6:53Speaker 1: off that cliff, and as it plummeted through the air,
- 6:57Speaker 1: Vladimir and Denise were ejected out of it. Vladimir was
- 7:01Speaker 1: severely injured but would survive. As for Denise, unfortunately, he
- 7:05Speaker 1: was killed. The riote operator was arrested, but they were
- 7:09Speaker 1: given just a four year suspended sentence for the incident.

- 7:25Speaker 1: long for a time when you know connection felt easy
- 7:28Speaker 1: and being close to people didn't take so much effort,
- 7:31Speaker 1: and then you take a look at your life now
- 7:33Speaker 1: and it just feels different, busier and more complicated. I mean,
- 7:37Speaker 1: there are moments I think about sometimes you know, nothing big,
- 7:40Speaker 1: just you know, sitting with people I cared about talking
- 7:42Speaker 1: about nothing. You know, at the time, those moments themselves
- 7:46Speaker 1: didn't feel important, But now looking back, I think I'd
- 7:50Speaker 1: tell that version of myself to cherish those moments as
- 7:53Speaker 1: they were occurring, because they don't last forever, and so
- 7:57Speaker 1: someday the relationships you have today may be the ones

- 8:32Speaker 2: First month of therapy.
- 8:41Speaker 1: On April twenty second, twenty twenty five, an Indian tourist
- 8:45Speaker 1: named Rishi Bot pulled a helmet onto his head at
- 8:48Speaker 1: the top of a zipline platform in the Baiseron Valley,
- 8:51Speaker 1: which is a meadow at the border of India and Pakistan.
- 8:54Speaker 1: It was a very beautiful sunny day, and way down
- 8:57Speaker 1: below him he could see crowds of people strolling around
- 9:00Speaker 1: and having picnics on the grass and enjoying this awesome
- 9:03Speaker 1: spring weather. However, as the zipline operator fastened the belt
- 9:08Speaker 1: and rope around Rieshe's waist, something started.
- 9:11Speaker 2: To feel off.
- 9:12Speaker 1: The operator was a local man who looked pretty normal
- 9:15Speaker 1: and unassuming, but he had been weirdly silent the whole
- 9:19Speaker 1: time Riesche was standing in line, and it seemed like
- 9:21Speaker 1: he was sort of preoccupied with something and considering his
- 9:25Speaker 1: job and how potentially dangerous it was. It just seemed
- 9:27Speaker 1: like this should be his focus, getting people on and
- 9:30Speaker 1: off this ride. But instead, you know, Reesche noticed that
- 9:32Speaker 1: this operator kept squinting down into the meadow really intently,
- 9:37Speaker 1: like he was watching someone or something down there. But
- 9:40Speaker 1: Riesche would look down and there was nothing down there
- 9:42Speaker 1: that was unusual, So he just he couldn't understand why
- 9:45Speaker 1: this operator was so fixated on whatever was.
- 9:47Speaker 2: Going on down there. It just seemed like a normal day.
- 9:50Speaker 1: And so by the time Riesche was told like he's
- 9:52Speaker 1: ready to begin the ride here, he sort of felt
- 9:55Speaker 1: like he didn't know if it was a good idea
- 9:56Speaker 1: to trust this man with his safety.
- 9:58Speaker 2: You know, it just seemed like his mind was was
- 10:00Speaker 2: totally somewhere else.
- 10:02Speaker 1: But Riesche had just watched a bunch of other people
- 10:04Speaker 1: who had been you know, suited up by this guy,
- 10:07Speaker 1: you know, successfully navigate the zipline without any problems. And
- 10:11Speaker 1: so ultimately Rieschi just sort of brushed off this this
- 10:14Speaker 1: budding anxiety inside of himself and just told himself he
- 10:17Speaker 1: has nothing to worry about.
- 10:18Speaker 2: This is going to be just fine.
- 10:19Speaker 1: And so Rishee when he was finally ready to go,
- 10:22Speaker 1: he looked over at the other side to the other
- 10:24Speaker 1: platform where he would eventually end up, where his wife
- 10:27Speaker 1: and his eleven year old son were, and he waved
- 10:29Speaker 1: to them, sort of signaling he was going to start.
- 10:31Speaker 1: And then he pulled out his phone and he hit
- 10:33Speaker 1: record on the camera and then he put it on
- 10:35Speaker 1: his selfie stick and he sort of held it out
- 10:38Speaker 1: and then he jumped, and as you can see on
- 10:41Speaker 1: reeshe's video the first few seconds that capture him sort
- 10:44Speaker 1: of beginning this ride. You know, he was totally exhilarated.
- 10:47Speaker 1: He's flying through the air over these these breathtaking mountain views,
- 10:51Speaker 1: the suns on his face, he's laughing. But after about
- 10:54Speaker 1: twenty seconds or so, Riesche heard that same zipline operator
- 10:59Speaker 1: shouts something from behind him, and so Rieschi he turns
- 11:02Speaker 1: around and he looks back at this operator, who again
- 11:05Speaker 1: is sort of like fixated looking down at like the
- 11:08Speaker 1: meadow below, and he's clearly looking at something down there
- 11:11Speaker 1: really intently like he had been, but now it seemed
- 11:14Speaker 1: much more urgent, and so Rieschi looked from the operator
- 11:18Speaker 1: down to the meadow as well.
- 11:20Speaker 2: And what he saw was horrifying.
- 11:22Speaker 1: He saw all these people who just moments before had
- 11:24Speaker 1: been having picnics and having this just like nice casual
- 11:28Speaker 1: family time. They're all screaming and running off into the trees,
- 11:32Speaker 1: and at first Rieschi like just couldn't understand what was happening,
- 11:36Speaker 1: But then, like all the other people in the valley,
- 11:39Speaker 1: he heard this terrifying noise and suddenly he knew what
- 11:43Speaker 1: was going on.
- 11:44Speaker 2: When Rieshe reached.
- 11:45Speaker 1: The end of the zipline, he immediately ripped off the
- 11:47Speaker 1: belt around his waist and he grabbed his wife and
- 11:50Speaker 1: his son and they began to run. Here is the
- 11:52Speaker 1: video of that Riesche took that day. So the people
- 11:55Speaker 1: below him as he starts down the zipline were mainly
- 11:59Speaker 1: tourists Rishi and his family, and most of them, like Rishi,
- 12:03Speaker 1: were from India, the country that actually has control over
- 12:07Speaker 1: the area where that valley is located.
- 12:10Speaker 2: And here you can see them all start to run.
- 12:13Speaker 1: What you don't see and what we are actually blurring
- 12:15Speaker 1: out here are the four anti India militants who suddenly
- 12:19Speaker 1: opened fire in the valley beneath Rishi. The terrifying noise
- 12:24Speaker 1: that Rishi and everyone else heard was gunfire, and the
- 12:27Speaker 1: shout that Rishi heard from that sort of distracted zipline operator, well,
- 12:32Speaker 1: Rishi would come.
- 12:33Speaker 2: To believe that that.
- 12:34Speaker 1: Had actually been a call to action for the militants
- 12:37Speaker 1: to begin their attack, like the operator was in on it.
- 12:41Speaker 2: Rishi and his family.
- 12:42Speaker 1: Would survive this attack, but unfortunately this was a massacre.
- 12:47Speaker 1: Twenty six people, almost all of them Indian tourists, were killed.
- 13:04Speaker 1: On the afternoon of February twentieth, twenty fourteen, twenty seven
- 13:08Speaker 1: year old Sarah Jones walked toward a bridge that was
- 13:11Speaker 1: way out in the woods of.
- 13:12Speaker 2: Wayne County, Georgia.
- 13:14Speaker 1: The film crew that she worked with was setting up
- 13:16Speaker 1: on the bridge and on the banks of the river nearby,
- 13:19Speaker 1: and Sarah could also see the director pacing around looking
- 13:22Speaker 1: really stressed and kind of jittery, and was clearly barking
- 13:26Speaker 1: out lots of orders to everybody around him, And Sarah
- 13:29Speaker 1: was also feeling pretty stressed herself, but she took a
- 13:32Speaker 1: deep breath and she told herself she just had to
- 13:35Speaker 1: make through a few more hours of this and then
- 13:38Speaker 1: she could go home. So Sarah was a camera assistant
- 13:41Speaker 1: and for the longest time she'd worked in television, but
- 13:45Speaker 1: recently she'd been hired to work on a movie and
- 13:47Speaker 1: the movie was being shot out here in the woods,
- 13:50Speaker 1: and this job was going to be very different than
- 13:53Speaker 1: what she was used to, but not just because it
- 13:56Speaker 1: was the difference between movie and TV.
- 13:59Speaker 2: No, it had to do with budget.
- 14:01Speaker 1: So this was a movie, you know, that was sort
- 14:03Speaker 1: of prestigious in a way, but it was going to
- 14:06Speaker 1: be a really low budget movie that was called Midnight Rider.
- 14:11Speaker 1: And the director sort of seemed like a total mess.
- 14:14Speaker 1: He kept changing his plans like all the time, especially
- 14:17Speaker 1: at the last minute, and today he had just begun
- 14:20Speaker 1: outright lying to the crew.
- 14:22Speaker 2: Just that morning he told the whole crew.
- 14:24Speaker 1: You know, Sarah included that they were heading out to
- 14:27Speaker 1: this location in the woods just for a quick camera
- 14:30Speaker 1: test to make sure the lenses and the lighting were right,
- 14:33Speaker 1: but they.
- 14:33Speaker 2: Weren't going to be doing any real filming. This was
- 14:35Speaker 2: just pure testing. But once they got out to the bridge,
- 14:39Speaker 2: the director sort.
- 14:40Speaker 1: Of inexplicably changed his mind and said, actually, you know what,
- 14:43Speaker 1: forget the test. We are going to do real filming today.
- 14:46Speaker 1: We're going to shoot the whole scene for this bridge today.
- 14:50Speaker 1: And this was like a really weird thing to lie about,
- 14:53Speaker 1: and Sarah just didn't understand what this guy's problem was.
- 14:56Speaker 2: It just seemed odd the way he was going about this.
- 14:59Speaker 1: But now you know, it was almost four thirty pm
- 15:01Speaker 1: and Sarah was carrying a bag of camera lenses over
- 15:04Speaker 1: to the bridge to hopefully set up for their final
- 15:06Speaker 1: shots of the day, and on her way she happened
- 15:09Speaker 1: to pass by the makeup artist, whose name was Joyce Gilliard,
- 15:13Speaker 1: and she noticed that Joyce had a very strange expression
- 15:16Speaker 1: on her face, and so Sarah stopped and actually asked
- 15:19Speaker 1: Joyce what was wrong?
- 15:20Speaker 2: You know, She's like, you look worried, what's going on?
- 15:23Speaker 1: But Joyce just shook her head and said she had
- 15:25Speaker 1: this funny feeling that they really were not supposed to
- 15:28Speaker 1: be here. But you know, just a minute later, Sarah
- 15:30Speaker 1: had changed the lens on the camera and she was
- 15:33Speaker 1: looking through the viewfinder, and this is what she saw.
- 15:36Speaker 1: The cast and crew were on this narrow bridge made
- 15:39Speaker 1: of wood and metal, and there was a rickety metal
- 15:41Speaker 1: hospital bed right in the middle of the bridge.
- 15:43Speaker 2: It was a prop.
- 15:44Speaker 1: The scene was supposed to be this dream sequence about
- 15:47Speaker 1: the main character's dead brother. So the actor playing the
- 15:50Speaker 1: brother was lying on the hospital bed, and the actor
- 15:53Speaker 1: playing the main character was standing a little further down
- 15:56Speaker 1: the bridge with a guitar slung over his shoulder. And
- 15:58Speaker 1: so once everyone was in their place is Sarah passed
- 16:01Speaker 1: the camera to the cinematographer and he hoisted it onto
- 16:04Speaker 1: his shoulder, and the director called for the crew to
- 16:07Speaker 1: start rolling. However, at the same time, there was this
- 16:11Speaker 1: deafening roar and a blast of loud noise, and Sarah
- 16:15Speaker 1: felt this deep vibration through her whole body, and it
- 16:19Speaker 1: was so disorienting that at first she couldn't even tell
- 16:22Speaker 1: what direction it was coming from. But when she turned around,
- 16:25Speaker 1: she saw the director motioning frantically for everyone to get
- 16:29Speaker 1: off the bridge, and so Sarah slung the camera bag
- 16:32Speaker 1: over her shoulders and tried to run, but the bridge
- 16:35Speaker 1: was so crammed with people and equipment and props that
- 16:38Speaker 1: she couldn't get through, and before she knew it, that
- 16:41Speaker 1: horrible sound was on top of her.
- 16:44Speaker 2: It would turn out Joyce was right.
- 16:47Speaker 1: They weren't supposed to be there that day, but not
- 16:49Speaker 1: because of anything spooky or superstitious.
- 16:52Speaker 2: It was because the film.
- 16:53Speaker 1: Crew literally was not legally allowed to be shooting a
- 16:56Speaker 1: movie on this bridge. So that was the reason why
- 16:59Speaker 1: the director had changed plans that day and lied about
- 17:03Speaker 1: what they were doing, because his application for a permit
- 17:06Speaker 1: to film on that bridge had been denied that morning.
- 17:10Speaker 2: But he knew if he told his crew.
- 17:11Speaker 1: That that it was denied, they wouldn't then be okay
- 17:14Speaker 1: with going out there and doing it anyways, and so
- 17:16Speaker 1: he just sort of didn't tell anyone and sort of
- 17:19Speaker 1: forced the crew to do it.
- 17:20Speaker 2: He tricked them all to do it, basically.
- 17:22Speaker 1: But it's like the director and his crew, they're out
- 17:24Speaker 1: there on the bridge, the cameras are rolling, they're about
- 17:26Speaker 1: to film this final scene when disaster strikes, and the
- 17:31Speaker 1: disaster that strikes was entirely predictable. It was literally the
- 17:35Speaker 1: thing that this permit was denied because of it was
- 17:38Speaker 1: to avoid this.
- 17:40Speaker 2: Type of disaster.
- 17:41Speaker 1: Here is the last footage ever shot for Midnight Rider.
- 17:44Speaker 1: You can see the actors and the crew scrambling to
- 17:47Speaker 1: get themselves and this hospital bed off the bridge, and
- 17:50Speaker 1: you can hear the roar and the blast of noise.
- 17:55Speaker 1: Sarah is actually just out of frame. She's right behind
- 17:58Speaker 1: the person who's holding this camera. You can see right
- 18:01Speaker 1: here the specific reason why the permit was denied, because
- 18:05Speaker 1: this bridge was an active railroad track and there is
- 18:09Speaker 1: literally a train barreling down on them. In the last
- 18:12Speaker 1: few seconds of this footage, you can see the camera
- 18:15Speaker 1: sort of tumbles. That's when the crew members, who could
- 18:18Speaker 1: not make it off the bridge in time, instead pressed
- 18:21Speaker 1: themselves up against the metal girders, trying to get as
- 18:24Speaker 1: small and as sort of skinny as possible to avoid
- 18:28Speaker 1: being hit by this train.
- 18:29Speaker 2: But Sarah unfortunately was not fast enough. When the train
- 18:33Speaker 2: came screaming.
- 18:34Speaker 1: By, it hit that hospital bed and a piece of
- 18:37Speaker 1: debris from it flew towards Sarah and pulled her back
- 18:41Speaker 1: onto the tracks, directly.
- 18:43Speaker 2: Into the path of the train. She was killed instantly.
- 18:47Speaker 1: The rest of the crew that were on the bridge
- 18:49Speaker 1: that day would survive, but a few other crew members
- 18:52Speaker 1: were injured. As for the film's director, who put his
- 18:55Speaker 1: whole crew in this awful situation, he pled guilty to
- 18:59Speaker 1: involuntary manslaughter for Sarah's death, and he was ultimately sentenced.
- 19:03Speaker 2: To two years in prison.
