What the hell is going on here??? The multiple-angle shots, the casual footage taken inside the aircraft itself during the crash, the steadicam-style shots whilst running away from the aircraft, references to the Miracle on the Hudson, cellphone calls made to loved ones before cheating death, just everything about this news video gives me really-bad vibes.

I can't see any mention of this elsewhere on the forum, which in itself is odd. I have no recollection of it being covered in the MSM last year. This is gettingridiculous Please look at all the pictures on the Daily Mail site, to help preserve my sanity. Comments??
Edit: this was meant to have occurred back in Nov 2011
What? They crash-landed it, slid it across the runway, watched it catch fire, sprayed it with foam....and then they hoisted it up (somehow), supplied external power sufficient to run-up the hydralics (unless the engines just needed to be hit with hammers for a few minutes), flipped the tripped electrical safety breakers so that the landing gear slid back down into place...then towed it away??? Seriously?http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LOT_Polish_Airlines_Flight_16 wrote:Shortly after the evacuation, a team from the Polish State Commission for Aircraft Accident Investigation arrived, and discovered that the C829 circuit breaker, which protects a number of systems including the alternate landing gear extension system was "popped". The C4248 breaker for the alternate landing gear remained closed. Once the aircraft had been lifted off the runway, the C829 circuit breaker was closed, and the landing gear was able to be extended, using the alternate system. This allowed the plane to be towed to the LOT maintenance hangar, for repairs and investigation.

Just look at this post-crash footage. The aircraft hardly has a mark on it. Bearing in mind that the only braking effect that fnally slowed the aircraft down was the material friction between the tangent underside of the engines cowlings and the tarmac, why aren't they worn-down to a flat?? How the hell does this even begin to look realistic?

Michele Cohen knew something was wrong when her usually unflappable husband texted her while his plane was still in the air.
His message read: "We’re making an emergency landing. I love you. I thank God for you and the kids every day and I’m sorry I have to tell you this with a text."
"He would have never sent it unless he was afraid he had to," said Michele Cohen, of Livingston.
Her husband, boxing promoter Greg Cohen, was one of 231 passengers on a LOT airlines plane from Newark Liberty International Airport that landed on its belly Tuesday at the Warsaw, Poland, airport after a landing gear malfunction.
