Falling from the Sky: Air Disasters FULL EPISODE - ukposts.info/have/v-deo/cHF-aqGEmK-fk2Q.html

respect to the cameraman who survived all of these crashes

I'm watching this while waiting for boarding, I'm keeping an eye for Smithsonian camera crew, If I see them I won't board.

My father is a flight attendant in iran, working for Aseman airlines. A few years back there was a crash with no survivors(Iran Aseman Airlines Flight 3704 ) I came back from school and started watching tv, when i saw the news i was shaking in fear, i called my dad only to hear him crying and telling me all his friends are dead. I will never forget that day, but as a child i thought at least it's not that much of a painful death, until a few weeks back that my father was coming back from Zahedan, moments after taking off one of the engines blew, they barely made it out alive cause of the captain's experience in flights. Now i watched this video and I'm thinking that how much hard it was for my dad to handle death of his friends because he knows exactly how it feels when something goes wrong up there, Dad i know you never see this comment but i love you and I'm proud of having a dad like you. Ps : due to iran being boycotted by many powerful countries due to political reasons, there are many many engine failures happening here on a daily basis and we're literally using the airforce left from SHAH which goes back to 1979. We were still using Boeing 727 until almost 2 years ago. ;)

7:05 That second one with the fire where everyone made it out. The flight attendants should be given awards and huge recognition for that one. ❤️

How these pilots keep their cool during these situations is a skill in itself, rest in peace all of the innocent people and pilots that lost their lives.

for anyone confused, a ghost jet is when the crew or pilots are incapacitated and autopilot keeps it in the air until it runs out of fuel

Ben Levy is probably the most courageous man I know.. At that kind of a situation.. He opened the cabin door.. Helped all the passengers get out.. Then get help himself.. All of this while knowing that the plane could explode due to engine failure at any moment.. This man not only was one of the most courageous but also showed what it meant to be truly HUMAN..

Wow it's crazy what the aviation industry goes through when something goes wrong. Much respect to these pilots and crew for keeping they composure. RIP to the ones that pass away

When i see that the captain is being interviewed i am sooooo relieved

Mad respect to the Asiana Air Passenger, Ben Levy. Takes a lot of courage and kindness to risk your own life for strangers, making sure they get off first.

This series is addictive. We watch an episode several times a week. Most of them are fascinating.

Condolences to all those who perished in the airline accidents. My heart goes out to them.

To those who died in the crash, may rest in peace, always remember yall

You know it's bad when there's no interview with the pilots themselves.

I don't care what anyone says about Sully, I'm from Louisiana and that landing on the Levee is legendary. The Capt doesn't get enough credit.

Respect and salute to pilots to survived the crash and landed safely...

I liked the ones where people survived. The "there were no survivors" make me sick. They are just so sad 🙁

Not gonna lie, I’m used to the full explanation for each situation so to a little jarring to see them abruptly end and move onto the next story.

emory 17 is so heartbreaking knowing how the pilots fought so hard to gain control again 🙁

To all pilots who truly manage to reach your retirement age: you are either badass level skilled or extremely lucky. Hats off to you sir, you are rare breed concerning the fact you are working in a machine were millions of tiny parts are put together and even the most subtle failures can bring a ✈️ down !!

I love how the attendants and the pilots will try their best to their last minutes to save passengers. Respect.

My father was an ATC at several airports, although for most of his 35 year career, he worked at the airport of a mid-sized metropolitan area. He only witnessed one crash of a small private plane. I watch these air disaster programs frequently because they reassure me that air travel is much safer today based on the lessons learned from these previous tragedies. And I learned a lot about aviation from my dad.

Flight 2121 was impressive. The pilots kept the plane in the air and tried their best to control it and made it to the airport while the fire was engulfing the rest of the plane.

I worked for Emery Worldwide in San Jose and knew those pilots and navigator and that plane…the part they don’t mention is that the plane was heading for a heavily populated area of Elk Grove. The pilots attempted to make it back to SAC but the load had broken loose and the ass end of the plane wouldnt allow them to level off and the kept loosing altitude….knowing the werent goint to make back to any runway, their final efforts were to at least avoid as many casualties as possible and veered from the flight path over ElkGrove, instead going down near the airport in an area of commercial buildings but mostly populated by wrecking yards and heavy equipment yards. Clipping a 5 story office building, they crashed causing no deaths other that the 3man crew. Potentially hundreds of lives, asleep in their homes were spared from the heroic efforts of that crew

What I’ve learned from this: never trust engine 2

The reason why I came to watch these videos is bc last night I had a dream I was at school and plane just came crashing into the school pond and every one was crying and busting out tears, and it’s been on my mind all day!!

After each accident the aircrafts get more and more safer, we learn with each disaster

The sound of the cockpit alarm on these crash shows saying 'pull up, pull up' is literally the stuff of nightmares.

"all 165 people on board have escape unharmed" **Literally the pilot fall from the emergency window**

Weird how I book a ticket for the first time in years and now every other fucking UKposts recommendation algorithm is for air disasters!! Perfect.

the set design, acting, the voiceover and the VFX are very very good even though these are old documentaries this are even better than some of the big budget movies today

Each of these videos is heartbreaking and really makes you look at your life with a humble and thankful heart.

These are so addicting.

I would never step on a plane with the Smithsonian camera crew on board

This is a great thing to watch before going on a flight💀💀

Rest In Peace all the people who died🕊

I can't imagine how hard and heart breaking it is to be an ATC and a pilot. They have responsibility of lives of more than 100-200 people and when things like these happen... Just wanna say RIP to evey lost soul in these disasters.

The Smithsonian Channel NEEDS MORE SUBS

It is amazing that flights/landings in which there are no problems, no injuries, and no fatalities are "normal". However, planes that crash and burn, in which some people survive, are "lucky" because not everyone died.

Can we all agree that these are some FANTASTIC reenactments! Great actors, great shooting!

That first one really had my heart racing. I work at an airport and am apart of a crew that loads very heavy freight onto airplanes. I take it very seriously making sure all those locks are up and I’m always keeping an eye out for anything sketchy. The last thing I would ever want to happen is to find out I missed something and was the reason several pilots died

I like that Captain waters and his co pilot on the Cathay Pacific flight are so calm and not freaking out like other pilots usually do.

Thank You for your excellent work and channel... love from Australia DrEva

you know you are dead when you are on a plane start hearing the narrator say little did they know...

11:40 “we’re having slight control problems” *people falling off of the plane on fire*

I always watch these in the airport while waiting on my flight without my ear buds in!🤷‍♂️

I don't know why but the past few days all I've had in my recommended is videos about plane crashes and now I'm just watching as many as I can despite the slight anxiety it causes me

What a great man Ben Levy was to help all those passengers out without panicking. Even with running into the problem of no slide, he made sure to help everybody out before himself. What an amazing man.

some of these pilots have amazing skills of handling pressure that I couldn’t imagine having. Props to them!

i would have jumped out of the plane the moment i heard any alarm 😅 Mad respect for the pilots who kept their cool and tried until the last minute

God bless everyday all the pilots around the world ❤🙏

Dose anyone else get a relief when you see the peeps talking about there story

Not all super heroes wear capes, but some fly. How these pilots keep so calm under unbelievable pressure is crazy. R.I.P to everyone one of these people who lost there lives.

Thanks for putting survival stories at the end. The video was getting stressful.

27:31 I love how the flight attendant said there was no turbulence during the emergency landing but the video shows lots of turbulence

Imagine staying in an airport hotel before take off and a plane kills you from crashing into the hotel, or if you ended up surviving, that would be the last time I ever decided to fly again

I just can't help thinking there's nothing worse than going through what these people had to go through.

27:41 not the engineer praying in the background 😂 Edit: ngl I would pray if I were him too but respect to these people who keep all of us safe and R.I.P to those who didn’t survive

Such courage and bravery shown by all

The ones on the Levy, pilot and co pilot preformed an absolute miracle that day. All lives saved, performed a risky manoeuvre, not a single injury and to top it off even saved the plane entirely

Pilot in training here, I’m now reconsidering my career of choice. Thanks y’all.

The last one is the most intense roller coaster

Am i the only one who is already afraid of flying, but still watching this like a maniac. God I have such toxic habits.

It’s these accidents that give me so much anxiety whenever entering a plane

I love how the cameraman keeps teleporting everywhere

No way I would survive a plane crash. I'd be dead before we hit the ground.

Why do I get the urge to watch all this close before my first flight of the year?

27:47 When they show a really rough landing on the grass, with the passengers shaken around in their seats and all, and then the flight attendant says "the landing was so smooth"; "A perfect landing"

Huge respect for the pilots who do so much to keep passengers safe and in one piece. Praise god.

These all giving me goosebumps

Just watched Challenger and Columbia videos… followed by Russian and Space X rockets… now this. It’s an aviation disaster kinda morning.

Hats off to all pilots, I could not do your job. Thank you for what you do.

Oh gosh this is so utterly heart breaking to watch. May all souls, pilots, cabin crew & passengers who fought so hard in their own ways, but sadly lost their lives so very tragically, rest in eternal peace.

That landing on the levee....hats of to you, sirs.

The Nationair crash is so heartbreaking. They were so close.

I really got to stop watching this. kind of making me scared of ever Flying again 😢😢😢

the actors in these r always so good

Grass landing is incredible respect for pilot👍

is it just me or when u watch a video u get addicted?

Why can’t I stop watching plane crash investigations, I’ve become familiar with probably every single aviation disaster since the passenger airliners were invented.

whenever i hear all of the passengers were saved.. id in tears that seldom do we hear this call ... everyone survives a devastating plane crash...

I'm only a child, though these crashes keep me entertained and keep me glued to watching them

One thing I've noticed is that the pilots are always calm, if only passengers could also be calm during an evacuation

I really think the Hawaiian flight where they manage to land with a chunk of the roof missing should've definitely been on this top 10 list.

This is the craziest thing I have ever seen

Great compilation, this helps my fright from flying´;)

That Concord crash shattered the dream of flying supersonic.. RIP to the souls on board and in the hotel

It's peculiar how every air traffic controller is named Roger

I flew from Guantanamo Bay to Pensacola FL in The USN Captain's Lear Jet, we had 2 Pilots, The Captain and 3 of us Enlisted. That Lear Jet was my favorite aircraft.

The stories are so touching :(( i'm crying :((

My mom, grandmother and brother were scheduled to stay at the hotel that the concord hit. It was the middle of the night here in the US and I tracked them down at another hotel that wasn’t on their itinerary. They had scrubbed their flight because of possible problems the day before putting them behind schedule and ultimately missed their intended reservation

The fact that we get free documentaries on UKposts by Smithsonian Channel is truly a gift. 👍

Ya know, even with a EXTREMELY slim to 0% chance of planes crashing, let along dying in one, it still doesn’t change the fact that plane problems, especially while in the air is enough to scare anyone!

i was hoping for AirFrance 447. But man these crashes scared the living life out of me, im in my room on my flight simulator replicating this

The pilots that landed on the Levee have some mad flying skills! That landing was a happy ending and a perfect landing.

I actually feel bad for the people back at the airport commanding them cause they has to view everything and the way they were just so sad and taking of their headphones was so sad. Put yea rip the people that died. 😔🕊️

I suggest having Parachutes in each seat so that passengers can use it to bail out of the plane, also some instructions in order how to use it, do they have those protocols? If not I'm not going to be happy.

the ghost plane crash hit me with a wave of nostalgia from the OG Top Gun, it just looks so similar

When my girl wants to take a vacation I put these videos on. It saves me a lot of money..
