An investigator revealed that Princess Diana would have been alive today if she had made a different choice. FOX’s “Celebrity Crime Scene” used recreation technology to recreate the unfortunate Paris tunnel crash that ultimately claimed Diana’s life on August 31, 1997. For those unversed, Diana was accompanied by her companion, Dodi Fayed, and their driver, Henri Paul, and she was only 36 years old at the time of her death.
Investigator suggests Princess Diana could have survived the fatal crash
Host and investigative crime journalist Jakson Buhaj, alongside British forensic psychologist Kerry Daynes and former U.S. Secret Service agent Rich Staropoli, revisited the tragic death on FOX’s “Celebrity Crime Scene”, special documentary.
Buhaj explained that had Diana done one thing differently, she might have possibly survived the fatal crash. He remarked: “It’s very odd that no one was wearing a seat belt. You would think that [Dodi Fayed’s bodyguard] Trevor Rees-Jones, who was sitting in the front seat directly ahead of Diana, would caution her that she should definitely put a seat belt on, considering the car is driving way over the speed limit. Yet no one thinks to do that.”
Notably, three of the four people in the car, including Diana, passed away in the fatal car crash. Dodi Fayed’s bodyguard, Rees-Jones, survived but suffered brutal injuries. There were rumors that Rees-Jones survived because he was wearing a seat belt. Investigators later revealed that wasn’t the case. The official British inquiry concluded that none of the occupants in the car were wearing a seat belt when it crashed.
Buhaj continued to insist that wearing a seat belt would have saved the former Princess of Wales’ life. “What I think is the most tragic thing about this is that, had everyone been wearing their seat belt, unfortunately, Henri Paul and Dodi Fayed probably would’ve passed away, but Diana most likely still would’ve been with us,” he added.
