Russell Smith, a pilot with over 50 years of flight
experience walked away with minor injuries to his hand and a splitting
headache after the six-seater Cessna 421 Twin Engine he was piloting
crashed into a huge Oak tree in Alabama and burst into flames.
The plane's twisted wreckage was tangled in the branches of the tree as the flames spread and smoke billowed with the pilot trapped inside.
Audrey Morris, a shop owner in the area said "I heard a big boom, I looked out I thought a tornado hit. And then I've seen a plane in a tree."
As the flames from the mangled wreck quickly spread to the surrounding vegetation, Mr Morris thought there was no way the pilot could still be alive.
But then he saw movement in the cockpit and he, along with other witnesses, rushed over to help the pilot who emerged with only minor injuries and a headache. The whole thing was caught on nearby CCTV.
Mr Smith said: 'My seat was on fire and I thought I only had a few
seconds so I actually did a back somersault out of the cockpit door.'
'It happened so quick, I didn't have time to think,' he added, before admitting that he believed he was going to die.
