General community for news/discussion in the UK.
Less serious posts should go in !casualuk@feddit.uk or !andfinally@feddit.uk
More serious politics should go in !uk_politics@feddit.uk.
Try not to spam the same link to multiple feddit.uk communities.
Pick the most appropriate, and put it there.
Posts should be related to UK-centric news, and should be either a link to a reputable source, or a text post on this community.
Opinion pieces are also allowed, provided they are not misleading/misrepresented/drivel, and have proper sources.
If you think "reputable news source" needs some definition, by all means start a meta thread.
Posts should be manually submitted, not by bot. Link titles should not be editorialised.
Disappointing comments will generally be left to fester in ratio, outright horrible comments will be removed.
Message the mods if you feel something really should be removed, or if a user seems to have a pattern of awful comments.

Not just survived...
The article has a video that supposedly him after the accident. He has a slight limp and blood/dirt on him but not bleeding.
His proof is a plane ticket, but like...
It's waaaaaay more likely dude missed his flight and is pulling a stunt compared to be virtually uninjured and walking into a busy area before rescue crews were out.
It's like a 1 in billions chance if he was really on the plane
This would be insane and quite a claim. His brother was on the flight, so either his brother also missed the flight and would be with him, or he saw his brother die in a plane crash and then immediately decides to head to the crash site and fake being in the accident? I mean it's not impossible but still lol
It's probably more likely the plane hit a building first, causing it to break up and he was ejected from the aircraft before the huge explosion.
As opposed to surviving with only a slight limp and blood from wounds that stopped bleeding almost immediately with no medical attention...
Because that would be completely normal and not noteworthy
Anyways, do you need a new watch? I could sell you Big Ben for 20 quid, comes with a deed and everything!
people improbably survive plane crashes all the time. It’s not likely in a crash like this, but there was 241 opportunities for it to happen, 1 seemingly got lucky.
People survive falling out of planes or getting struck by lightning sometimes too. Shit happens in both directions.
There there a woman that somehow fell out of a plane and fell thousands of feet only to landed in a tree with virtually no injuries.
