  • Back in 2015 experienced skydiver, Victoria Cilliers, narrowly escaped death on a skydiving jump that went disastrously wrong. At first, it looked like a mere accident, but after a two-year investigation by the police and months of front-page headlines, it was finally uncovered that Victoria’s husband and army sergeant Emile had tampered with her parachute. Five years since that harrowing event, Victoria is releasing a tell-all book to explain her story - she joins us to reveal the betrayals, secret fraud and deceit that transfixed Britain.

      Yup was just going to say this. Remember watching the trial and she was in denial and now she’s writing a book about it. She was so confused back then and so in love that she was blinded. Thank God opened up her eyes to see it and lived to tell about it not many have that luck and to think he attempted it twice and she still survived. What a testimony!

    • @elliotjohnson9415
      @elliotjohnson9415 5 місяців тому +23

      She went into survival mode when falling, and as a trained parachute instructor followed her training to survive. It's not weird, it's her experience.
      And people can fall under someone's control, get love bombed, get manipulated into staying in a relationship, and they can be made to believe they are the problem rather than the perpetrator. She has referenced in other interviews he used to blame her for her concerns about him, rather than him admitting fault. There's nothing wrong with this woman, other than falling into the same trap countless other people fall into. Stop being so judgemental.

      I've lost control of a car on an icy mountain road, and I wasn't spooked until after. There was no space for fear, everything I had was focused on regaining control of the car. Maybe the right word isn't fear actually, I was probably afraid, but no panic. Just focus.
