#08: High-Flying Betrayal - The Attempted Murder in the Skies

In this compelling episode, we explore the extraordinary survival of Victoria Cilliers, an experienced skydiver and army physiotherapist, who endured a 4,000-foot fall when both her main and reserve parachutes failed during a jump in 2015. Initially perceived as a tragic accident, the incident led to an extensive investigation that uncovered shocking details.

We delve into the complexities of the case, examining the circumstances surrounding the parachute malfunction, the subsequent legal proceedings, and the broader implications of coercive control within intimate relationships.

Victoria's resilience and determination to seek justice have been highlighted in various media, including the Channel 4 docuseries "The Fall: Skydive Murder Plot" and her memoir, "I Survived.

For more information on this case, we recommend "I Survived: A True Story" by Victoria Cilliers, which heavily informed this episode from the following link - https://amzn.to/42FqPQt
