Thai billionaire Vichai was among five people killed when his helicopter crashed shortly after taking off from the King Power Stadium on Saturday evening
Leicestershire Police said the other four people to be two of Vichai Srivaddhanaprabha's staff, Nursara Suknamai and Kaveporn Punpare, pilot Eric Swaffer and passenger Izabela Roza Lechowicz, his partner
Mr Swaffer is described as a private jet and helicopter pilot with 'over 20 years of flying experience' by privatefly
com. And in an interview with the very same site, Mr Swaffer revealed all on life as a helicopter pilot before his tragic death
Asked the car he drove, Mr Swaffer said: "Audi A4 - in driving as in flying, safety and reliability is everything to me
" And in another tragic revelation, Mr Swaffer explained how he would always ensure adequate medical kit was on board whenever he flew
LEICESTER HELICOPTER CRASH: UPDATES FROM TRAGIC KING POWER SCENE He said: "I always carry my Macbook Pro and my Blackberry
If the flight is involves an oceanic crossing or when you are expected to be several hours from a diversion airfield, I like to check the aircraft has a medical kit and defibrillator as well as the mandatory first aid kit
" As for his top flying tip, Mr Swaffer said: "Use all available assets, including people, to help you, flying is all about teamwork
" While he added he loved his job because 'the travel is incredible, as well as the fantastic people you meet along the way', Leicester vice chairman Aiyawatt Srivaddhanaprabha visited the King Power Stadium to pay tribute to his father and club owner Vichai Srivaddhanaprabha following his tragic death this morning
The emotional Leicester squad also paid their respects to the 60-year-old at the ground on Monday
Thai billionaire Vichai was among five people killed when his helicopter crashed shortly after taking off from the King Power Stadium on Saturday evening
Manager Claude Puel joined his players while vice chairman Aiyawatt returned to see the tributes after arriving earlier in the morning while around 200 fans broke into spontaneous applause
Aiyawatt had been joined by his mother and Vichai's wife Aimon at the ground and they laid a floral tribute
Club officials, including director of football Jon Rudkin and chief executive Susan Whelan, also attended as they viewed the floral tributes and the family laid their own
The president of the Thai FA, Somyot Poompanmoung and his wife, Potjaman Poompamoung, were also among the group, while various personalities from sport and showbiz - including Kasabian singer Tom Meighan - also arrived
The Air Accidents Investigation Branch has recovered the helicopter's black boxes, voice and data, and are working on them at their Farnborough base
Goalkeeper Kasper Schmeichel was visibly upset at the scene, having earlier paid an emotional tribute to the man who "changed football forever
" Denmark international goalkeeper Schmeichel, who was reported to have witnessed the accident, thanked Srivaddhanaprabha for making his football dreams come true in an emotional post on his Instagram account
"Dear Mr Chairman. I cannot believe this is happening. I am so totally devastated and heartbroken
I just cannot believe what I saw last night. It just doesn't seem real," he wrote
"It is difficult to put into words how much you meant to this football club and to the city of Leicester
Never have I ever come across a man like you. So hard working, so passionate, so kind and so generous in the extreme
"You changed football. Forever! You gave hope to everyone that the impossible was possible
You literally made my dreams come true. "We now have a responsibility as a club, as players and fans to honour you
From knowing you we do this by being the family you created." Schmeichel's powerful words were echoed by his team-mates, who arrived at the stadium later on Monday
"Words can't describe how I feel. A truly great, kind, loving man who will be missed so much by everyone
I will never forget the Chairman's support, not only during my time @LCFC but also during the World Cup," England defender Harry Maguire wrote on Twitter
Fellow City defender and England left-back Ben Chilwell hailed "one of the best people you could wish to meet"
Writing on Twitter, he said: "I can't believe it. I am heartbroken to hear that no-one survived the crash yesterday
" Jamie Vardy - whose meteoric rise through the leagues was matched step-by-step by the club as they came from nowhere to win the Premier League in 2016 - called Srivaddhanaprabha a "legend"
He said on Instagram: "Struggling to find the right words, but to me you are a legend, an incredible man who had the biggest heart, the soul of Leicester City Football Club
Thank you for everything you did for me, my family and our club. I will truly miss you, may you rest in peace

What If King Ghidorah Was Real? - Duration: 6:23.
Hello internet - and welcome back to Life's Biggest Questions - the place where no time
travelling, three-headed space dragon can stop us when it comes to laying out a play
by play on a hypothetical world-destroying Kaiju.
What's going on guys - as per usual, I'll be your disembodied floating voice Jack Finch,
as we take to the skies and the deep depths of the ocean bed, flee in terror at the sight
of a Giant Monsters All-Out Attack and hope that no one kicks over the cabbage cart - and
curiously ask the question, What If King Ghidorah Was Real?
Roll the clip.
Well well, how do we even begin when it comes to addressing the Emperor of the Cosmos, the
Thousand-Year Dragon King, the Space Super Terror-Beast.
King Ghidorah.
He's kind of a big deal when it comes to the Kaiju.
So much so that he's had an incredible six appearances throughout the kaiju franchise
- cementing himself as the primary antagonist of the entire universe.
It's safe to say that if King Ghidorah was real, alongside the myriad of kaiju monsters,
then the world would be a much different place.
Ever seen Pacific Rim?
Yeah, it's time to suit up.
Before we jump into that mechacollosus though, you know the drill by now guys - if you're
a fan of this video, King Ghidorah, Godzilla, Showa era Monster Attacks or just LBQ in general
- then be a dear and hit that thumbs up button, as well as that subscribe bell so you can
stay up to date with our latest and greatest uploads.
If you'd like to share this video with a friend - then go ahead - because you never
know when they'll be needing a hypothetical safety protocol to survive a Giant Monsters
All-Out Attack, right?
Safety first.
King Ghidorah is the big-bad-baddy of the kaiju world - but sometimes he's a benevolent
good guy - so don't let that confuse you.
He's a colossal, three headed golden wyvern-esque dragon with two large wings, two tails, zero
arms and an impenetrable cuirass of golden scales for skin.
His first film appearance was in 1964's Ghidorah, the Three-Headed Monster, a Japanese
sci-fi kaiju film produced and distributed by Toho - the company synonymous with creating
the Godzilla franchise.
Since he stepped onto the silver screen, his infamy has skyrocketed as Godzilla's most
notorious arch-nemesis, making the likes of Mothra, Rodan and Gigan pale in comparison.
He's seen an incredibly vast number of incarnations in cinema.
In the Showa era, as well as the Rebirth of Mothra III, Ghidorah is an all-evil space
monster solely responsible for wiping out all life on many planets across the universe,
often butting heads on Earth and being ultimately thwarted by the lizard king himself, Godzilla.
In 1991's Godzilla vs King Ghidorah, his origin is the result of three genetically
engineered creatures from the future, known as Dorats - which were fused together with
a nuclear explosion.
However, in Giant Monsters All-Out Attack, King Ghidorah is an ancient Japanese spirit
guardian, slumbering beneath Mt. Fuji and guarded by zealous warriors in the hope that
he would one day rise again to defend Japan in their hour of need.
In most other scenarios, King Ghidorah would wipe out all life on Earth like one would
take a stroll in a park.
He'd hitch up on his asteroid, plow into the planet - exterminate all visible life
and then flap off out into the deep depths of space to do it all over again.
He's done it with Venus - twice - so Earth would be no different.
So, in essence - the Earth's fate would rely on which incarnation of the great King
Ghidorah we had.
In one sense, if we had a version of the benevolent Thousand Year Old Dragon Guardian Ghidorah,
then we'd all be pretty kushty, actually.
Say if things happened the same way they did in the film, and the slumbering King Ghidorah
was discovered dormant underground, then the socio-political landscape would be shaken
to its core.
In the same way that nuclear arms define our global sense of territory, the discovery of
an ancient benevolent cosmic beast beneath Japan would put a severe strain on international
diplomacy.
Heck, just take a look at the way rogue nations deal with nuclear development - in both Iran
and North Korea, if there's any sniff of weaponry that could potentially rival the
United States, Europe and Russia, then the United Nations comes down on them like a tonne
of bricks, quicker than a brown fox jumping over a lazy dog - Bob's your uncle, etcetera
etcetera.
So how the hell do we compare that to a literal cosmic bomb?
A creature that can level cities with a mere flap of its wings, that's already been proven
to be the individual trigger for wiping out all life on Earth throughout the Cretaceous
period?
Forget your nuclear warheads, King Ghidorah has gravity beams.
Even if he remained dormant, his deterrent alone would be more than enough to catapult
Japan to the level of global superpower.
It's interesting, because this is equivalent to the role of the Futurians throughout the
kaiju franchise - a futuristic sect of humanoids from the 23rd century with the goal of destroying
Japan in the past before it can become a corrupt economic superpower in the future.
Although, in that respect - they use King Ghidorah as a pawn in an attempt to wipe out
Japan, but the sentiment remains the same.
Japan would be untouchable.
That is, unless, the rest of the world could actually do something about it.
There isn't a lot that happens on our pale blue dot that goes uninterfered without the
involvement of either Russia, China or the United States.
Throw Europe in there too, for safe measure.
All of which have relatively sound diplomatic relations with Japan, barr Russia - who still
have strained relations surrounding the Kuril Island dispute - but that's a topic for
another time.
The point is, there isn't any particular reason for Japan to be threatened - or for
King Ghidorah to awake from his slumber and defend against invading forces.
But still - he remains the same - a deterrent.
A trap card to be played at the opportune moment.
Nations advance, and global powers rise and fall - we can visibly see it throughout history,
as technology stutters and starts to catch up.
But what if King Ghidorah was real, and we throw in a Thousand Year Space Dragon that
can wreak havoc with a single flap of his wings?
Well - it's safe to say no one would be picking a fight with Japan any time soon.
Unfortunately folks, that's all we've got time for in todays video - cheers for
sticking around all the way to the end.

to continue on with your questioning binge, feel free to hit that playlist floating shortly

As per usual, I've been your host Jack Finch, you've been watching Life's Biggest Questions,

What was the name of that perfume? | VLOG - Duration: 13:15.
Against my better judgement, I've decided to start vlogging again.
Goodness only knows why.
You'll have to excuse the hair situation.
I washed it really late last night and just put it back, and it's still soaking wet.
So if I take it down now, I'll actually have to try it, and I can't be bothered.
Today's kind of a test run to see if I actually feel like doing it properly.
I think I'm probably going to do weekly vlogs, because I think in the past I struggled to
keep up doing them not even daily, but just regularly because I felt like enough wasn't
happening to make it worth it.
Whereas, if I've got a whole week for stuff to happen in order to make a reasonable video,
then that's a bit better.
I think I've also struggled with not liking the vlogs once I've done them, and thinking,
"That doesn't really seem like me in the video."
So I'm going to try my very best not to be anything other than completely myself.
So far today, I've put together all the ingredients to put in the breadmaker.
That takes a while, but it should be good when it's ready.
I've had a few attempts at making bread, but I'm never quite happy with them.
They never seem to rise well enough.
So my mum got the breadmaker out of the shed, and we'll see if it can do a better job than
me.
Let's face it, at this point it can't do much worse.
I've also been baking because it was my sister's birthday a couple of days ago, and she's coming
round today, and I want to give her some cupcakes, so I've been making those.
I've already been quite busy this morning, so let's see what I've been up to.
[clicks fingers]
[relaxed Latin music]
Now I've got to go and pick up something I ordered in town, and I want to go to a shop
there, and then I need to go to Tesco to get some more frosting for the cupcakes.
And... then I think I have to do some work.
I do have some work, but I can't remember where I've left my to-do list, so I'll let
you know about that when I get back.
Let's go shopping.
[relaxed Latin music]
The reminder on my phone has gone off twice now to tell me I was supposed to be working,
and I wasn't.
I was downstairs talking and finishing off the cupcakes, and what else was I doing?
Oh yes, the cats were being weird, and now there's soup, and then hopefully I might actually
get some work done while my dinner is cooking.
Because everybody's having a takeaway, but they're having one that there's nothing I
can have from that one, so I'm going to have my own food, and I might do some work while
they're waiting for that.
Let's see how that goes, but first, soup.
[relaxed jazz music]
[the heavy silence of concentration]
Angola?
How is he getting an easy one?
This is not fair.
How do they know when it's your turn?
I'm absolutely wiped out, and we've been concentrating for fourteen minutes.
It's not fair.
"In which German city has perfumed water been made since 1709?
Berlin, Frankfurt, Cologne, Munich."
"Smelly Water" - the technical name.
"Smelly water, by Chanel."
Sister, offscreen: "by Calvin Klein."
[laughter continues]
That is how they say it.
"Cool Water"?
Not "Smelly Water"?
[relaxed jazz music]
He's staring straight into the camera.
Like, straight down the lens.
I think what we've established there is that games are very hard.
When you have ADHD and are extremely tired, it is very hard to even take on board the
rules in the first place, let alone actually play the game, but I think I've just about
survived.
So I'm tired and I haven't done anything I need to do yet, so I'm going to tidy my desk
and hopefully then I can get some work done, because...
I don't actually need to tidy it to get the work done, but I kind of don't want anybody
to see it, so at least that's going to give me some sort of...
Whatever that word is, to get on and tidy up.
Bear with me.
[laughs] [louder] Bear with me.
[final bars of jazz music]
So, if you don't know, one of the things I do is I'm a composer, as in, music, and one
thing I'm doing at the moment is a course in an aspect of that that I'm hoping to add
to what I do.
So I'm going to do a couple of lessons from that, maybe just one.
I don't know, they're quite long.
And then, I'm going to get on with a project I'm doing myself so that I can improve my
portfolio and more people will want me to make music for their games, because that would
be a good thing, and then I would have money.
I mean, really I just want to be the lead singer in a band that has a lot of noise and...
Yeah, that's all I really want.
But in the meantime, one has to have a profession, and one is choosing to be pretending to be
a serious musician, when really one is making it up as one goes along.
Anyway, I'm going to get started on that, and you can watch as I get progressively more
confused-slash-annoyed that I haven't written the next Beethoven's Fifth in seven minutes.
I'm just going to explain, because it keeps catching my eye when I'm sorting out the angle.
My nail.
That's hair dye.
I didn't realise there was a little hole in the end of the glove until I took it off,
at which point it had been developing for fifteen minutes, and now I can't get it off.
So, that's fun, but it's nearly Christmas...
Well, I'm going to say, as soon as it's November, "LOL, Christmas!" and paint them a sparkly
gold so I don't have to tell any more people that no, it isn't a bruise, when they ask.
Right, work.
I'm working, I promise I'm working.
[silence]
So, for pretty much my entire life I've pulled sixteen, eighteen hour days every single day,
because the combination of things I've got wrong with me means it's, like, so much more
difficult for me to get through what would be a standard day.
It can take me two, three times as long, even if it's not a very hard day.
So, I just had to, because nobody believed there was anything wrong, so I just had to
manage it somehow.
And now that I do know that there are things that make it harder for me and I should pace
myself, I still don't, because I feel guilty.
Like, for not doing as much.
And I definitely should not have been working this evening.
That's something we've established at this point.
I shouldn't have scheduled any work in for today, because it was going to be hectic and
unpredictable, and I shouldn't have put work in earlier in the day because I wasn't going
to get to it.
And I certainly shouldn't have tried to do it now, when I realised I hadn't done it.
It wasn't important, it could have waited until tomorrow, and I didn't wait because
I felt guilty because people...
You know, they expect a lot more from me than I am capable of without help, but then they
don't give me the help.
So, I'm just making up my schedule for the week, and I'm going to try and be a lot more
conservative.
I'm going to expect a lot less of myself this week, because I've got rehearsals and a show,
and I'm going to see if I can balance them and get to Sunday in one piece.
Now, luckily, I'm going to do a weekly vlog starting from tomorrow, so you'll be able
to see how it works out, and when we get to Sunday I'll be able to tell you how it's going.
I'm hoping to make Friday a proper day off.
I couldn't tell you the last time I had one of those.
I have a really good memory, and I got back to 2006 and I still haven't found what counts
as a proper day off yet.
So I'm just going to have a go at it, but I don't know how well it'll go.
I'll give it my best shot.
I'm going to edit this now, because I have to do the subtitles as well, but I hope you'll
join me for the next vlog.
And if you have any suggestions for what bits you liked best, that you might want to see
more of, please do let me know, because I don't really have a plan.
I kind of thought this would be, you know, about composing and the other work I do, with
a side of me.
But actually, this has been very me, with a side of composing.
So I don't quite know where I'm going with it yet.
Suggestions welcome, and hopefully I'll see you in the next video.
I don't know.
Hopefully.
See you soon.
