His escape from the jaws of death with only minor injuries has left many in awe and disbelief.

 

 

 

The Catastrophic Descent

 

 

The aircraft, on a routine international route, encountered catastrophic mechanical failure during its final approach. Despite last-minute efforts by the pilot to stabilize the descent, the plane plummeted, ultimately breaking apart upon impact near the runway. Emergency responders rushed to the scene, navigating flames, debris, and the haunting silence that followed the impact.

According to preliminary medical reports, he sustained only superficial scratches and light bruising — an outcome that defied all odds given the state of the aircraft. Ramesh was able to walk unaided from the scene, a surreal sight that has since captured global attention.

 

 

 

 

Witnesses recount the moment he emerged from the wreckage, dazed but alive, as a poignant counterpoint to the surrounding devastation. Ramesh later shared that he felt an overwhelming force lift him during the crash, sparing him from the fatal impact that claimed the lives of dozens around him.
