The only person who survived the tragic Air India crash, Vishwashkumar Ramesh, described the terrifying moment the plane failed to take off properly—and his complete disbelief at surviving it.

Ramesh, a British citizen with Indian roots, was on board the flight bound for London. The plane crashed just moments after departing from Ahmedabad, a city in northwestern India, on Thursday afternoon. Tragically, 241 people on the aircraft lost their lives, along with at least 29 people on the ground. By late Friday, rescue workers had found 25 more bodies in the wreckage.

This crash is now considered one of India’s deadliest aviation disasters. It was also the first crash involving a Boeing 787-8 Dreamliner since the aircraft was introduced in 2009, according to the Aviation Safety Network.

Speaking from a government hospital, Ramesh told India’s national broadcaster what he remembered. According to him, the aircraft seemed to freeze in the air just seconds after takeoff. He recalled green and white lights flashing and the engines roaring, but the plane failed to climb. It then crashed into a residential building that housed a medical college hostel.

He witnessed the horrifying sight of passengers and crew members dying around him. His own brother, who was traveling with him, was among those who didn’t survive.

Ramesh had been seated in seat 11A. That part of the plane slammed into the ground floor of the building. After the impact, he quickly unbuckled his seatbelt and managed to push himself out through a nearby open door.

“When I opened my eyes, I couldn’t believe I was still alive,” he said. He remembered seeing pieces of the destroyed plane scattered all around.

Though injured, especially with burns on his left hand, Ramesh somehow walked away from the crash site—still in shock. A few local residents saw him and helped him reach an ambulance, which rushed him to the hospital.

Back home, his family was in turmoil. His other brother, Nayan Kumar Ramesh, told Sky News that Ramesh had video-called their father shortly after the crash. “He said, ‘The plane crashed. I can’t find my brother. I don’t see any passengers. I don’t even know how I’m alive or how I got out,’” Nayan recalled.

Ramesh also contacted relatives in Leicester, UK. His cousin, Ajay Valgi, said Ramesh only told the family that he was okay. "He just said he's fine—nothing more," Valgi said. Ramesh is married and has a young son. The family, while thankful for his survival, remains heartbroken over the loss of his brother.

India’s Prime Minister, Narendra Modi, visited the crash site on Friday. He also met Ramesh in the hospital. “I told him what I saw,” said Ramesh. “He asked me about my health.”

According to Dr. Dhaval Gameti, Ramesh had multiple injuries and was initially confused but was now stable and out of danger. He even kept his boarding pass with him while in the hospital.

“He’s recovering well and could be discharged very soon,” Dr. Gameti confirmed.

Eyewitnesses were stunned to see the lone survivor—bruised, burned, but alive—limping his way to the ambulance that carried him away from the scene of so much tragedy.

And you expect Israel to be scared??

Or you want USA to start shaking? In as much as I love mother Russia, I don't think this makes any difference in the ongoing crises.

So far Middle East is concerned, we have just two powerful nations and that's Saudi and Israel, the rest can hug transformers

FreeStuffsNG:
Israelis on Saturday described the fear, chaos and confusion as several Iranian missiles slammed into houses and apartments in central Israel overnight, causing widespread destruction, killing three people and wounding dozens.

Col. (res.) Michael David, who leads the Home Front’s Tel Aviv command, told Ynet that his forces were trained to handle such situations and received reinforcements, but said: “This is an event of a magnitude we haven’t seen in the past.”

This is a report from a pro-Isreal platform; Times of Israel.

Expensive multibillion dollars defence toys like Iron dome, David slingshot and US Patriot/ THAAD lule pii when Iran missiles were dropping on Isreal.

No doubt, Iran is a formidable foe and it explains why US has been avoiding direct confrontation with Iran

War is bad. All the warring sides should stop these wars.

Toosure70:
Abeg this man don invite trouble for our country o. No be our mate dey fight biko

efemena5050:
wow ur strong o....pls tell me more about the Israelites..like thier characters and level of fear or cowardice

Botragelad:
Haha. Iran is clearly winning online. "Tel Aviv is burning"!😂😂

Alfred200825:
Meaning you have no right to tell a mad man with sharp machete standing opposite your gate to leave. Because he is defending himself?

EnglandAmaka:
Wow. I don't know why i feel somehow about this. This is a direct confrontation. In as much as i support Isreal, striking and killing a top Iranian government official in his own home is just too much. This will likely mark the start of a serious war in the middle East

Continuation..

Daddyyin:
You have to be a very bitter person if you don’t align with Jagaban

I didn’t know that the man who claims that he fears no one can shake like a leaf, when death stares him in the face… Hmmmm. When you listen to the recording, the voice is identifiable. No need for me to name him… pic.twitter.com/J2MZdWpfVJ

No bro Obi isn’t a fool he knows what he’s saying which is audible to every sane Nigeria that Tinubu is destroying labor party

Carry foreign rice from Ogun to IMO... From Edo to IMO you would meet 300 check points and you would pay everyone for carrying foreign rice

So when igbos complain u go know why

Zackattack:
They found creative ways to please their wives. It wasn’t necessary though.
This is just impunity and has nothing to do with being a simp.
You come back from work seeing your wife acting childishly, you still find a creative way to please her. Na wa.

saintbillion:
So I stumbled on this post on social media. Was some how funny. I decided to share.

jhydebaba:
Petro is not expensive in Nigeria but it could be cheaper based on the fact that we have crude oil and refine locally now.

EyeCumInPeace:

Tinubu is a natural, sorry, man-made disaster.
Shame on all his supporters.
