This is a guy who was known to hire body doubles and he had numerous passports.

I think he’s dead. But I didn’t know about the body double thing. The thing is, all of Wagner leadership getting on a plane together and flying over Russia seems so, pardon me, idiotic. So idiotic that now I know about the body doubles I am questioning the whole situation now.

We are assuming they were alive when the plane lifted off.

It would be hard to hide they were dead when they took off. People would know and someone would say something you would think. The pilots alone would notice a bunch of corpse.

Imagine being one of the body doubles, getting into this plane with the other body doubles… like “I’m guessing they’re not serving peanuts on this flight?”

I’m embarrassed and a little ashamed I lol’d at that. Being a body double is a pretty crummy vocation.

I encourage you not to discount the possibility that they're dumb or cocky. After watching The Mole: Undercover in North Korea, I just can't look at people like this the same way.

Putting that on my watch list now, thanks!
