A British father miraculously walked away from the Air India plane disaster believed to have claimed the lives of hundreds of people.
Vishwash Kumar Ramesh, 40, spoke from the safety of a hospital bed after escaping from the doomed Gatwick-bound Flight 171 this morning.
Astonishing footage showed the passenger walking away from the scene. He was said to have sustained injuries to his chest, eyes and feet.
Police found the passenger, who had been in seat 11A when the jet came down in a residential area in Gujarat, and transferred him to a nearby hospital for treatment.
'Thirty seconds after take-off, there was a loud noise and then the plane crashed. It all happened so quickly,’ he told local media.
