Default Real Life Final Destination

Now, if you are not familiar with or have never seen the Final Destination movies, basically the general idea is that you cannot escape death's plan. The movie takes a group of people who throughout the duration of the film try to escape fate. In the first Final Destination, a group of students is going on a trip to France, but before boarding the plane, one student gets a premonition that the plane is going to explode and tries to warn his fellow students not to get on. Some listen because they're his friends, but others don't. They board the plane and sure enough the plane explodes right after take off. Immediately after that, students are questioned by the FBI who are trying to figure out how they knew not to board the plane. After the interrogation, they all head home, but a couple students do not make it. They are on the highway and a tractor trailer carrying logs loses control and ends up killing the teens.

On June 1, 2009, an Air France Airbus (Flight 477) took off from Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, transporting 288 people to Europe. Sadly, however, the plane never arrived at its destination. It entered an area of strong turbulence and crashed into the Atlantic Ocean, killing everyone aboard.

An Italian woman, named Johanna Ganthaler, and her husband Kurt were vacationing in Brazil and they arrived late for Flight 477 and ended up missing the flight. Unfortunately, she and her husband got into a car accident in Kufstein, Austria, when their car veered across a road and crashed into an oncoming truck. She died and her husband was seriously injured.

Weird eh?

Tragic co-incidence in my eyes.


Also you've mixed the first 2 Final Destinations together.
The first movie is the plane crash, and they all end up dying one by one.
The Teens getting killed by the log truck is final destination 2

Also worth noting that Final Destination 4 will be out before the end of the year. Does anyone know if they are actually 'real' people? Have seen fictional stories made up like this before other, high profile releases

I told my friends that if I ever have a scary Final Destination-esque vision before we're about to board a plane, leave for a road trip, hop onto a roller coaster etc etc, that I won't forewarn any of them and press on with an evil smile However, if I want to live at the last second I will ditch them before "it" can happen.

I actually realised that and shuddered a little bit.

Pure coincidence though, I think.

The Final Destination movies have a HORRIBLE plot line but have damn creative ways to kill people. All ridiculous in the long run though.

I lol'd. They were never meant to be based on a true story.......Anyone who takes those types of movies as a possibility of happening in real life, has bigger problems than worrying about plot lines.

Hmmm I love the Final Destination series! I can't wait for the 4th to come out. Sometime in August. They obviously can't happen, that is the whole sinister death part to it. There is as much chance that Freddy Kreuger will come and butcher us in our sleep, that Death will kill us in one of those ways!

I guess I have serious issues because I still believe horror movies can happen in real life. LOL

Me and horror movies don't mix well.
