Denver. November 1st, 1955. Precisely 6:11 in the evening. United Airlines Flight 629 had just landed at Denver’s Stapleton airport. The Douglas DC6 was in the middle of a cross country flight between New York and Seattle, the flight’s next stop was Portland, Oregon. Whilst in Denver, the plane was re-fueled. New passengers got on, and their bags were stored in the plane’s cargo compartment. In all, 39 passengers were on board the plane, plus the flight crew and flight attendants there were 44 people on the flight.

This was my favorite story thus far. Intriguing - with plot twists!

[@philipbearly6620]

I witnessed this explosion as a 5 1/2 year old child. My family was just north of Longmont, CO on the way to my grandma's birthday gathering, when there was a massive flash of light to the southeast. We immediately thought it was a meteor, until the second explosion and flash followed by trailing fire descending almost vertical until impact and fires. My father was the manager at Johnson's Corner, the only 24 hour truck stop at that time in northern CO. He said there was some sort of disaster, and help would be needed at the site, so we left the cake and presents at my uncle's house and went the 7 miles east to the site. I will never forget the fires, debris, and seats with silhouetted bodies as our headlights turned across the wreckage. A LEO recognized my father and gave him a spare gun to help keep away the criminal looters who were already converging. After enough LEO's arrived, we went back to J.C., and my dad proceeded to call in off duty cooks and food preparers, along with all of our suppliers of coffee, bread, eggs, pop, etc. He hauled load after load of food to the site to feed the responders until the Colorado Army National Guard could mobilize and set up feeding and rest tents for the massive recovery effort. Johnson's Corner fed hundreds of them, and my dad and J. C. was later given a letter of commendation by the Chief of the State Patrol for the help given during the disaster. I still have that letter. I am 73 years old, but remember it like it was yesterday. I am still amazed at the inhumanity of Jack Graham, and that of the looters stealing luggage, purses, wallets, wedding rings, and gold teeth from the victims of this horrible event.

I am so thankful for all the changes, too. This downing of Flight 629 changed the FBI, the aviation industry, insurance agency, court system, and media, and more...it was a first in many things, but one that has been forgotten by every major network - except for CBS4 in Denver and ABC7 in Denver. But, nationally, totally shoved under the rug and forgotten. The areas around the fields in which the plane fell were so traumatized by what these farmers, their families, and other citizens who rushed to help saw and experienced, that they, too, did not speak of it. Until recently, after my book was published and I finally made the visit to see where my dad died and to meet some of the first people on the field who are still alive today. Now, there is this whole committee/movement for the memorial and tribute. Once approval is received, I can share more about this.

[@cattymajiv]

@@MarianPoeppelmeyer I'm so sorry for your loss.

[@brega6286]

Horrid that people would "loot" belongings from such a tragedy.

[@PointReflex]

To me the worst case of this behavior happened during the sinking of White Star's SS Atlantic in 1873 where some of the "rescuers" (people from the nearby town where the ship struck the rocky coast line) saw the corpses of the passengers been washed into the shore and instead of helping the survivors to reach safety they made haste to grab every jewelry, fancy cloth and hair (from the females) before anyone else noticed. To make things worse it is reported that some corpses of the few females that reached the shore were found with their chests naked due to some opportunists who in amidst the chaos of the rescue in such stormy conditions, took their time to have their way with the dead.

[@Jens-Viper-Nobel]

Regrettably not just horrid. Inhumane is the word I would choose to descibe them for lack of a better word. Or plain evil perhaps. But in reality, there isn't a word strong enough to sufficiently describe the mental properties of such people. And for those who now want to say that some of them have done it because of being poor and desperate, that is NOT a viable excuse for that kind of behavior. Because world history is full of poor people even worse of that rallied to help in times of disasters despite their own plight. And these heroes would certainly have come under the heading of that excuse, yet never even thought about it for a split second.

[@jetblackjoy]

It is to be expected in poor countries. Scrap metal, intact belongings and even freak souvenirs can be sold to feed the living.

[@MarianPoeppelmeyer]

The farmers and teens on the field got into action when they saw the looting. They realized they not only had to find the bodies, but cover them, run a truck around in circles around each body to mark it, and place someone to stand guard against the looters. PhilBearly above told me that his father was handed a gun by a law enforcement person and told to shoot anyone attempting to get onto the field if they didn't heed his warning to quit gawking and turn around. It was chaos and high activity that night.

[@Strype13]

@@jetblackjoy While you're certainly correct, I think it's pretty obvious that this type of behavior doesn't just happen in poor countries.

[@jimpern]

One thing that defeated Jack Graham's plan was the delay before the DC-6 took off, which is mentioned in the video but not explained. His intention was for the plane to explode while over a remote part of the Rocky Mountains where recovery of the wreckage - and its cause - would have been difficult. But because of the delay, the plane was stil over the far west Denver suburbs when it exploded, so the wreckage was fairly easily accessed.

[@MarianPoeppelmeyer]

Another slight detail I learned when I visited the beet fields (now being developed by a huge land developer) was that had the plane exploded just a few minutes later, the passengers and plane would have explored over Loveland, Colorado - which was residential, not beet fields.

[@MarianPoeppelmeyer]

Not really. He put 25 sticks on the plane, when he only needed one or two. The carnage and debris was so massive as it fell over 6 square miles (approx. 260 acres) in pitch darkness, freezing weather, and no lights or phone lines. The tail and nose were about a mile and a half away from each other, while the body of the plane was smattered into thousands of debris pieces, and the engines leaving 16 foot deep craters. Bodies were scattered over about 160 acres. Eventually farmers brought generators onto the field and the phone company ran a phone line for communication. YEs, if the timing occurred a few minutes earlier from take off, it would have blown up over Loveland, which had residential streets - thus more would have potentially died and there would have been more mayhem. My book, Finding My Father, summarizes and explains more about that night and nights that followed.

[@cattymajiv]

@@MarianPoeppelmeyer May your father rest in peace. My heart goes out to you.

[@jenniferrucker2266]

The timer was a 90 minute timer not 60 minutes. He wanted a timer capable of more than 90 minutes, but 90 minutes was the most he could get. In the book, “Mainliner Denver”, one of the chapters give an account of Daisie King’s personality by Jack Graham’s, half sister. She said that Daisie would be your best friend one minute and then be at your throat the next minute. With Jack, the apple didn’t seem to fall too far from the tree. The difference was Jack took his animosity to a whole new level.

Being a kid from Denver, I always thought this incident was odd. The plane actually crashed into the farm of my friend's uncle. (Long before I was born) You mentioned that he was only charged and convicted with the 1 murder, and that's the part that was so baffling to me when I learned of the crash as a kid. At the time, it was not illegal to blow up a plane. Therefore, they couldn't charge him for it. The only thing they could charge him for was killing his mom. Like you had said, apparently, that had only happened once previously, so there was no law preventing it. That seemed like such a foreign concept to me being an 80s kid, since we had things like the unibomber, OKC bombing, 9/11, etc.

[@MarianPoeppelmeyer]

@v12tommy Would you be willing to contact me? I was just in Denver last year for the first time (my dad was on that flight) and met many people in Weld county who remember that tragic night very well. A few of us are working on a memorial/monument of some nature to not only pay tribute to the passengers killed (my dad was on that flight) but to all the surrounding communities - the farmers, the cafe owners, the American Legion, and average citizens - who rallied and went beyond their call and duty in responding to the devastating disaster they encountered. Most likely, your friend's uncle is one of those unsung heroes who came out to the fields in 32 degree weather and pitch darkness to assist in finding the bodies, retrieving them, and taking them to Greely Armory which became a morgue. I spoke at 5 town hall meetings to finally thank their communities for what their forefathers did November 1, 1955. I and several others who live directly in that area are wanting to see a memorial established after all these years. To turn such wickedness into a positive for the posterity of the Denver area. Their American Spirit will inspire the rest of the country in such uncertain times.

What’s an interesting side note is that in those days it was pretty easy to walk into the local hardware store and buy a case of dynamite. If you look back on the 50’s-70’s you can see that there were not only some airline bombings but lots of car bombs. As dynamite sales became more restricted in the 70’s these incidents began to decline within the USA. After the OKC bombing in the 90’s even ammonium nitrate became more difficult to obtain. There’s something to be said about the strong correlation on how easily obtainable a lethal weapon / material is and the increased frequency of lethal consequences from that weapon / material.

[@cattymajiv]

No kidding. And what Americans fail to realize is that regulations prevent bad things from happening in every area! Their aversion to all regulations is downright crazy!

This happened in a country I've never been to and years before my birth, but hearing little snippets of people, real people, who were on that flight is just so sad. Why is there always someone who wasn't supposed to be on the flight when these things happen?!

Problem with Australian airlines is they all have really good safety records, for example quantas hasn't had a fatal crash since the 50s

[@saveyourbacon6164]

@@almightysamwhich4203 The last fatal accident involving a QANTAS aircraft was in 1975, but the victim was a ground worker, the driver of a land tug, so it was not an air safety incident or accident, but a ramp accident. The victim was starting the pushout of a Boeing 707 at Sydney Airport, when, apparently, the towbar between the tug and the nosewheel assembly somehow broke. Relieved of the weight of the aircraft, the land tug leapt forward and slammed into the nosewheel assembly, collapsing it, and the nose of the aircraft sank onto the cab of the tug and crushed it, and the driver was killed. The last time a QANTAS aircraft was totally destroyed was in a takeoff accident at Mauritius on August 24, 1960. The aircraft was a Super Constellation which ran off the end of the runway following an aborted takeoff due to the failure of engine no. 3. It went down an embankment and into a ravine. Sixteeen of the thirty-seven people on board were injured, but no one was killed. As I understand it, the last fatal accident was in Malta in 1951, where seven were killed.

What was it? The PSA crash in San Diego?

[@pooryorick831]

​@@bbigjohnson069 Yes. I grew up in California. We lived in the Bay Area, moved to San Diego when I was five, and moved back to the Bay Area 10 years later. So by the time of PSA 182, I had flown a couple dozen times on PSA into and out of San Diego. I don't know if I flew on the plane that crashed, but it is definitely possible. I was 15 at the time. I saw the accident site and the smoke plume rising into that clear blue sky. I knew people who lived in the neighborhood. Nobody I knew personally was killed, but I had nightmares about planes falling out of the sky for years afterward. If you lived in San Diego at the time, you considered PSA to be your own airline. You could fly to San Diego from Oakland, San Francisco or San Jose for about $25. When we were at the zoo, we could see PSA jets on approach to the airport about every 5 minutes. The brightly colored planes with the painted on smile were iconic to San Diego in the 1970s. That changed for every San Diegan on September 25 1978. And here we are almost 45 years later discussing the accident that drove a stake into the heart of that community. Yes it had a profound impact on me. I suppose that is true of everyone who has a plane crash close to home. It certainly did in San Diego.

[@bbigjohnson069]

@@pooryorick831 I had just turned 15 4 days earlier. I delivered the OC Register lived in Garden Grove. I got home from school and as soon as I sat down on the driveway to fold my papers I saw the infamous picture of the smoking jet going down. That was quite a shock to see that. That photographer won an award for that photo. That's an amazing feat to be in the right place at the right time with a camera and then to only have a few seconds to get one snap of the shutter. I learned more about the crash later. How it was in between the the airports zones for the ATC. The small plane made an error in his turn but then corrected it. But it put him on that fatal course. Then the PSA 727 was looking for him but saw another plane instead. They never knew that other plane was right below them. I read there were bodies in people's houses, body parts everywhere, smell of burning flesh. Someone said they even saw a passenger still in his seat go flying by screaming. Don't know if that's true. One person was an employee but not a crew member on that flight. I think and was hungover and missed the flight. I also remeber the Cerritos crash in '86 AeroMexico 498. I had planned a trip to Disneyland that day and knew of the crash before leaving. When we were in line for the Matterhorn I could look NW and see the smoke from it. That's the last mid air collision of a commercial jet in the US. In 2001-02 I was talking with a Buena Park Fireman. I asked him if he'd ever been on any unusual calls. He mentioned the Cerritos crash. His unit went to where the small plane crashed. It was mostly intact and sort of floated down to a softer landing. He said he looked in and saw a young lady in the rear seat with her feet up on the front seat. Her toenails were painted all pretty but her head was gone. All the passengers were decapitated by the DC-9's left elevator. I have a friend who is ret. LASD Sheriff's Deputy. He said he was the first one there. He said the smell of burning flesh is something you never forget. I live about 11 miles east of LAX. Flights coming from the south or most of the cargo flights that land on 25L go right almost right over me between 3,000-4,000 feet. Also inline with Hawthorne so I get a show. I can tell 747s just from the sound and slower speed.

[@pooryorick831]

@@bbigjohnson069 Yeah Cerritos was bad too. Almost the same exact accident. Totally preventable. I can't even begin to imagine what a mass casualty scene like that is like. The smell. How would you ever get that smell out of your nose? It makes me queasy just thinking about it. That's funny, I delivered papers too. That picture on the front page. I still remember seeing it on paper after paper as I folded them. Dang. It's burned into my memory. I heard the screaming man story too. I am pretty sure it is an urban legend. The plane hit the ground at about 300 mph. Nobody could have survived that impact. I am pretty sure they were all dead before their nervous systems could process it. Hopefully it was painless. Those 17 seconds of terror were what was awful. That still creeps me out. It will until my dying day.

@@pooryorick831 My mom remarried in '76 after my dad died a year earlier. My stepdad was terrified of flying because he has no control over the situation. The next year April '77 we're flying back to Colorado. The Tenerife crash was a month earlier. There may have been other crashes too I don't recall for sure. Plus the DC-10 had all those problems. We had an early flight like 8AM and think it was a DC-10. I'm seated across the aisle from my parents. I look over and my stepdad has a Bloody Mary and his face is ghost white. I'm thinking geez he wasn't kidding. But he made it. My last time flying was to SLC, Utah a couple years ago. We hit some unstable weather coming down and the plane shook a few time and was rocking and going up and down. We had to circle the airport for 45 mins. because of the turbulence. I had an aisle seat in the 1st row. I want to tell you nobody was going to get in front of me getting off that plane. When the door opened I was outta there! I just about soaked through my Levi's on that one. I asked my mom if she'd been through anything like that and she said, "Worse." Then I remembered a flight they were on going to Tuscon but with a stop in Phoenix first. On approach they said the plane was rolling back and forth. They got close to touching down and a gust of wind tipped the plane to one side. The pilot initiated a go around and they landed. They said to hell with this, deplaned, rented a car and drove to Tuscon instead.

Plenty of kids went to orphanages during the depression. When the choice is give them up so they can eat and have clothing or let them starve their is no choice. My grandma and her siblings went to orphanage too. They never held it against their mother. The ones still living were with her when she died in the 80’s

[@marril96]

The problem here is that the mother, when she got money, took the daughter back from the orphanage and even paid for her school, yet she left the son in the orphanage. She clearly had a favorite. She could've taken both kids back, but she chose to leave him.

[@MissWitchiepoo]

What you said about the insurance back then in the 50's it reminds me of one of my favorite movies from when I was a child named Airport it was the first Airport movie and my hero Dean Martin was one of the pilots and Burt Lancaster was also in the movie. In this movie a man who can't hold a job brings a bomb on a plane but first buys insurance for every penny he has in order for his wife, who loves him very much and never gets angry that he can't hold jobs, to get this money. You may know this movie but since I'm getting old, I would think a lot hasn't seen this movie. The second Airport movie is also great. You can't go wrong with the old movie stars as Jack Lemon:)

There's a dubious and debatable level of "Sensibility" involved in Legislation, considering most such changes come at the work of Congressional Action, directly... AND in that day and age, at least in the U.S., there was a philosophy that "They don't get no dead-er" for the stacking of charges. A D.A. from that day would ask you, "What do you want?

Jack was a psychopath, that has nothing to do with his childhood. Besides, she didn't really abandon him, she gave him to a home that she thought would care for him because she literally couldn't them both of them alive by herself. Many parents did that during the great depression. It's not like she thought "i don't like him anymore" and ditched him on the side of the road. And ofc she was hesitant to get back in touch with him, she'd been keeping tabs on him his whole life and saw what kind of person he was, not a good one.

Our family was living 16 miles from the crash site and my mother said she had just seen a bright light in the sky. I was five years old. We drove toward where Mom had seen the light and soon we found burning wreckage. To this day, I can recall the image of a section of the airplane. It was sitting on its belly, the windows recognizable, fully engulfed in flames. Another thing that has stayed with me has been the smell of the burning plane. I can’t describe it but four or five times since the incident, I have been exposed to odors that I immediately identified as being the same as the smell of the burning aircraft. As we drove home, we saw the tail section of the aircraft. Dad parked the car and we walked toward the tail. As we stood looking at it, white envelopes started landing around us as they drifted down from the sky. About 10 years later, I saw another aircraft that had crashed not far from this United flight. It was a two-seater Air Force jet without its two pilots. It was early morning and no officials had arrived yet. Searching the web, I am not able to find any record of that crash. I am curious to know if the producers of this video could find any record of that crash. From memory, the jet was located at these map coordinates, 40.38954, -104.78736.
