Who exactly was it pranking, then? Was there someone in the plane that thought they were going to die, or was it just pranking people who are reporting the story about the prank?

It's pranking the people who watch it. The intent is to make a viral video that lots of people will watch and tell their friends they have to see it, too. All for the sweet, sweet advertising dollars.

It wasn't a prank, it was a 'prank'. Everyone there was in on it and it was designed to get her more attention. Any time you see her in the news there is a *very* good bet it came from her publicist. She's a famous for being famous person and needs that to keep her brand alive and the money coming in.

Quick attempt before work. Couldn't remember the exact size restrictions. If you still need help at the end of the day I'll be back.

Its based on a novel by Philip K. Dick which dealt with identity disassociation, the ephemeral nature of reality, the cyclical nature of addiction, the ultimately futile attempts to assert control over human drives, and the breakdown of society at war with extrinsic morality. Of course it hard to understand.

Philip K. Dick's entire body of work can more or less be classified as a potent hallucinogenic cognitohazard, dude.

I mean, look at Wikipedia posted:

Dick recounted that as the sun glinted off the gold pendant, the reflection caused the generation of a "pink beam" of light that mesmerized him. He came to believe the beam imparted wisdom and clairvoyance, and also believed it to be intelligent.......

Throughout February and March 1974, Dick experienced a series of hallucinations, which he referred to as "2-3-74", shorthand for February�March 1974. Aside from the "pink beam", Dick described the initial hallucinations as geometric patterns, and, occasionally, brief pictures of Jesus and ancient Rome. As the hallucinations increased in length and frequency, Dick claimed he began to live two parallel lives, one as himself, "Philip K. Dick", and one as "Thomas", a Christian persecuted by Romans in the first century CE. He referred to the "transcendentally rational mind" as "Zebra", "God" and "VALIS".....

At one point Dick felt that he had been taken over by the spirit of the prophet Elijah. He believed that an episode in his novel Flow My Tears, the Policeman Said was a detailed retelling of a biblical story from the Book of Acts, which he had never read. Dick documented and discussed his experiences and faith in a private journal, later published as The Exegesis of Philip K. Dick.

Much like Tesla, his thought patterns were so out of step that you could probably call him insane, maybe.

Brilliant work though.
