15 survivors

Horrible ,Plane had a flame out in one engine and then  looks to have lost all power ,pilot does very well to get  over buildings and after that everything would have been happening very fast .Prob trying to put down in river but lost  speed  ,could have dipped the wing to try and take the speed out the airplane and put the main body in the river ,very unlucky not to have pulled it off or maybe done well  .Think there are overhead power lines and it could be he was trying to avoid these at the last minute .

the is from behind  taxi ,he gets a bit on the brakes which prob saves his life ,plane doing about 200 mph ish ? ,taxi is straight on with the hazards as well ,must be fearing a smash from the speeding tw@t behind who completely misses the plane coming .

horrible stuff and RIP the dead ,another sad day for Asian airlines .

did the taxi driver survive?

yes

hard to believe he did - very lucky

lucky it was left hand drive

The taxi was an interesting aspect, the road wasn't that busy, so just a fraction of a second later or earlier and nothing would be hit, even then it was only hit enough to damage it a little.

If I was the taxi driver I'd be appraising my life in case it was a sign :)

video seems to be have taken dowm, I only wanted to look now I know everyone survived.

43 died

The video was all over the news, and about 100x on youtube.
