Part 5/15:
A recurring trope is JFK Jr.’s love of flying—presented as an intrinsic part of his identity and a key reason behind his tragic death. The documentary features a clip where JFK Jr. claims that flying was the only place where he could be completely alone, which is depicted as an earnest, heartfelt statement. Yet, skepticism seeps in: why would someone with such a high-profile lifestyle choose an activity renowned for danger? Critics highlight that JFK Jr. flew a plane often dubbed the "flying lawn mower," a nickname suggesting recklessness. The narrative implies that his obsession with flying was driven by a desire for solitude, but also hints at reckless hubris.
