Sending a Message
It might not be a conventional tactic, but military forces all around the world love to show off. And it's exactly what the United States and 28 of its allies, including Australia, is currently doing on and around the Hawaiian islands. RIMPAC 2024, as it's called, is an extraordinary spectacular of the world's most lethal weaponry. It's loud, menacing and quite overwhelming. For this story, reporter Dimity Clancey and her team were granted extraordinary access to the operation, which included filming on board the massive USS Carl Vinson Nimitz-class aircraft carrier, as well as securing a rare interview with the US Chief of Naval Operations and member of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, Admiral Lisa Franchetti. America and its partners view RIMPAC 2024 as the perfect opportunity to send a decisive message to any would-be adversaries: Mess with us at your peril.

The Fall
For the greatest adrenaline rush, Victoria Cilliers used to boast there was nothing better than leaping out of a plane. In fact, she loved skydiving so much she did it more than two and a half thousand times. Then the unthinkable happened. On a routine jump both her main and reserve parachutes failed. At that moment, Vicky expected to die. Miraculously though, she survived the fall. But as she recovered from her substantial injuries, she received an even bigger shock. As Adam Hegarty reports, what she thought had been a terrible accident was really a sinister crime.
