Spoken like a 20 something. Friend was 70 when I was 38. I asked him how old of an antique he thought he be when he left this world. He said he would be a fossil..just celebrated his 91st birthday in style by jumping out of a perfectly good airplane to get to 100 jumps since he turned 80..... 3 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your getting wrapped around the axels again....deep breaths and let it go...he died and had covid which in itself could have killed him if he was unhealthy, unvaccinated or ?.

Grief over the fact, that he was from the right origin but did not make it in time for the award given to the 10th million tourist by Prayuth. Latter knew Friday evening already, that this award goes to a passenger disembarking on Gate 10 on Saturday morning ....... but some sporty fellow was faster than him ????

ikke1959 Posted December 12, 2022 Share Posted December 12, 2022 If he is/was a symptonic, he didn't even know that he was infected.. Besides who said that he died because of Covid? Maybe a heartfailure? People die even healthy people as it is a part of life.. When you a born it is normal that you will die, nobody lives forever 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post 4MyEgo Posted December 12, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted December 12, 2022 What a convenient way to provide more scaremongering. No autopsy means that they cannot say how he died, but hey, that's throw it out there that he was infected with the virus and died, of course the gullible will take that as the cause of his death, hook, line and sinker. Probably died in his sleep of natural causes. 3 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peterw42 Posted December 12, 2022 Share Posted December 12, 2022 I think people would be shocked at the number of people that pass away inflight worldwide. Other than recent covid, this story would probably not even merit a mention. I had an air hostess girlfriend back in Australia, and she had experienced it twice in her career. And that was domestic flights. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
