Re: 85 People Killed: 2002 SU-27 Sknyliv Airshow Disaster In Lviv, Ukraine
Lviv, Ukraine: A fighter jet clipped the ground and sheared through a crowd of spectators on Saturday at an air show in western Ukraine before exploding in a ball of fire, killing at least 81 people and injuring 115 in one of the world's deadliest air show accidents. The two crew ejected and survived, the Defense Ministry said, just after the SU-27 aircraft first grazed the ground and slid backward on its wingtip and nose through hundreds of spectators watching on a clear day at the Sknyliv air base in the city of Lviv. Bohdan Hupalo, 18, said he was posing for a picture when the plane came down. He dove to the ground and saw the jet race over him, missing by only a few metres. "There weren't any survivors among those who fell down late - they were cut down like grass,'' he said. When Hupalo opened his eyes, he said he was surrounded by human remains. "I will never forget this tragedy,'' he said from his hospital bed, where he was being treated for an injured back. After the crash, parents frantically searched for missing children and used the public address system to call out their names. One group of children with cuts on their faces and arms sat stunned on the ground. http://video.google.com/videoplay?do...29005552303111 |
