Miracle On The Hudson

Miracle On The Hudson

US Airways Flight 1549 encounters a flock of geese in the air, causing the plane to fall and fall within 900 feet of the top of the George Washington Bridge. Captain Sullenberger became a hero when he was able to ditch the plane in the Hudson River and save all 155 passengers and crew members aboard. Although everyone survived, some were seriously injured due to the fall and the freezing temperatures of the river.
