I thought this was very interesting. This guy outlines how most of the lives lost in aviation "accidents" are actually caused by the pilots, intentionally. Then he breaks down how this amazing airplane design probably saved everyone from certain death before the passenger-pilots took the yoke.

The Airbus would have lost the entire vertical stabilizer.
That copilot was trying to snap roll that 737.
This is an event that the 737 needed to rebuild confidence in it.

Well, now I'm not sure it's accurate. Juan is saying some dude yanked the yoke and took it to 3.08 G.
