A video capturing chilling ATC audio of an incoherent pilot is going viral, leaving thousands online questioning whether the pilot was suffering from a medical emergency or was possibly under the influence. In the recording, the pilot struggles to form complete sentences and oddly claims to be flying at 43,000 feet—an altitude far beyond the capabilities of a single-engine aircraft. Moments later, communication with him was lost, and officials confirmed the plane had gone down near Boise, Idaho.
