    Out of curiousity, when was the last time planes crashed into each other? Either on the runway or in the air? (I dont mean crash landing or dodgy take off, I mean two planes actually coliding).

    Another reason to use UPS instead, much better service.

    I love the way they all get up and console the air traffic controller in the first clip and leave all the other planes to their own devices...........

    It's still the safest way to travel though.

    Safest way to travel but if anything goes wrong and it dose go down you are usually fu*cked.

    Statistically the safest place is near the tail.

    I was watching a program about the Canary Islands crash in 1977 between a PAN AM and KLM plane, both 747's.

    Terrible stuff altogether.

    I'm terrified of flying, however I am not terrified of videos, and not watching these videos will not cure me, neither will watching them make them worse.

    Eeeeeeek!

    Landing or taking off from Funchal is not for the faint of heart.
    Great...I have a flight in a few days and now I've scared myself! :o

    At 2:18 in the OP's video is the T-1000 from Terminator 2, Robert Patrick!
    John Connor must have been on that plane!

    At least it looks awfully like him!
