Watch... a plane falls vertically... and the pilot survived with an unthinkable trick
Social networking sites in Belgium circulated a video clip that monitored the moments of a small plane crash vertically in a city, as the pilot managed to get out of it alive and with minor injuries.
According to local media, eyewitnesses heard the sound of an explosion and looked at the sky, where they saw a plane landing vertically towards the ground.
They were surprised by a parachute installed in the back of the plane that helped slow down the speed of its fall, on a street in Bruges, northwest Belgium, on Friday afternoon.
The biggest surprise was when the pilot got out of the destroyed plane on the ground, reeling, only to find out later that he had minor injuries, according to Al Arabiya.net.
Officials said the pilot, who was not named, had extensive aviation experience.
They added that the reason for the pilot's survival was almost certainly due to the plane's system, which launches a parachute that reduces the speed of the fall, reducing injuries to people in the collision.
