DEVIL PLANE: PLANE CRASHES JUST AFTER TAKE OFF IN SHOCKING MOMENT
- 4 years ago
A plane crash was caught on video from inside the cabin after one of the passengers declared the aircraft looked "very dangerous to fly" before boarding it in Russia
This heart-stopping video from inside a plane shows how it plummets to the ground straight after takeoff – leaving five passengers with broken backs.
The incident took place in the city of Magadan in Magadan Oblast, Russia, when a group of passengers boarded an Antonov An-2, a Soviet mass-produced single-engine biplane.
Transporting workers to the nearby village of Seymchan, the plane was carrying 14 people in total, local media reports.
Miraculously, the 12 workers and two crew members all survived the plane crash, but not everyone escaped without serious injuries.
Three terrifying video clips of the incident were shared on the social network AirPublic.
In the first clip, one of the workers, apparently sensing that a dramatic incident is about to take place, films the stationary plane on the icy tarmac.
They say: “This is the ‘devil plane’ we are going to fly in. It looks dead. It is very dangerous to fly.”
The second clip, filmed by one of the passengers, shows the moment the plane appears to lose engine power on takeoff and drops to the ground as the man yells in fear.
The third video shows the crashed plane on the ground as the passenger says: “Here it is! We have just crashed in this plane. Everyone is alive. I really wonder how I’m still alive.”
Seven passengers were injured and five suffered spinal fractures while the remaining three were not seriously harmed, according to local media.
Ivan Bovzya, one of the passengers, said: “It all happened so quickly.
"We managed to gain an altitude of around 50 metres (164 feet) and then the plane started to fall. It felt like we were dropping into an abyss.”
The Investigative Committee of the Russian Federation has reportedly launched an investigation into the incident.
At the moment, it is believed that the plane either crashed due to a technical fault or a piloting error.
