- A Singapore Airlines flight that made an emergency landing in Bangkok on Tuesday had fallen into an air pocket in Thai airspace before it encountered turbulence, with one British man killed and seven people critically injured on board, a senior airport official said.
Suvarnabhumi airport general manager Kittipong Kittikachorn told a press conference a 73-year-old British man died during the incident, likely due to a heart attack, while head injuries were sustained among seven people critically injured. One crew member was hospitalised, he said.

And that’s why you always wear the lap belt , they aren’t there for a crash , they are there for sudden changes in motion
Flying is dangerous it's just taken for granted. Still safer than a car.
Plunged 7000ft in 5 minutes. Wow! That's less than 1500 feet per min. Sounds intense.
Sounds wrong.
Doubt that this is accurate.
thats insane speed u dont just plunge
@@everest9707that is what the tests suggest so far
@@joshford5805that is what the tests suggest so far
im forever wearing my seat belt now
me too
A seat belt won't do you that much good if a plane is in trouble , and don't play it down their letting the standards drop for a various reasons , money and too much diversity are just two of them .
Me too. We don't take this seriously enough
Me too
@michaeldooley5398 If you've got a seat belt on, there's a far better chance of being OK during bad turbulence than if you haven't.
Couldnt imagine anything more terrifying than meeting my end in a plane crash. I cant imagine how frightening that must have been! Thank god the pilots managed to land 🙏
Not just meeting your end in a plane crash. Looking out the window at the beautiful sky, headphones in playing your favourite song. Your seat falls beneath you and you sh*t yourself but in a blink of an eye you break your neck by the weight of a falling plane. You fall to the floor, still alive. Still falling. Forced to live out your final minutes in agonising pain. Knowing no one can get up and help you and then eventually meeting your end

The pilots names have been released. They are captin Som Ting-Wong, vice captin, Wi Too-Lo, vice vice captin, Ho Lee-Fuk and vice vice vice captain, Bang Ding-Ow...
All the times I've flown the Pilot puts the seat belt sign on and maybe makes an announcement if turbulence is expected. A sad example of what can happen if you don't.
I always keep my belt done up when not moving around cabin ,
For this reason
Wow, frightening
Is the newsreader drunk? If so, this is my new favourite channel.
What do you even mean
It’s called an Aussie accent.😂
she is hilarious 'bangCOOOOCK' 1:15 😂😂😂
Aussie vocal fry
she sounds like shes on the verge of tears
Chilling, very sad.
Terrible news 😢 poor people
Hopefully it can teach airline passengers to keep their seatbelts on throughout the trip. An air hole can appear very suddenly. Have experienced it myself, very unpleasant.
Same, I stay buckled when seated and treat the seatbelt light as a sign that I shouldn't unbuckle to visit the toilet.
Same. A long long time ago. My heart came into my mouth, literally
People's heads broke the ceiling panels
doubt it, there would be a lot of blood
Fantastic piloting skills in getting the plane under control and then landing the plane safely. Bravo 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
This is why you are told to keep your seatbelt on when seated, even if the seatbelt sign is off.
Although I'm not saying the dead/injured were seated but not wearing belts. But this is a perfect example of why to not ignore that safety advice.
Turbulence is invisible. You don't know it's there until you fly into it.
Belt up when seated. It might just save your life.
Stop trying to be a smart arse have some respect for people injured
@@jeffoleg4881 Well said
It's also good to get up and move around a bit so you don't get a blood clot... you can't win really
@@jeffoleg4881 its not being a smart arse its being correct
Good advice
I always leave mine fastened
I don't fly often but when I do I always think what if there is turbulence while the food trolley is doing the rounds. Those trolleys could rip through the fuselage if cruising down the plane and smashed into the roof certainlycould badly injur or kill people. Lucky that did not happen. Sad for the dead and injured but the pilot regained control and is probably due a lot of credit for landing it safely and saving so many lives.
Anyone know what an air pocket is? And how a plane can get stuck in one
Less dense air , so like stepping off land into water until you fall through it into the dense air.
It's an area in the sky where there are sudden low and high pressures zone which could cause the plane to violently and abruptly change directions (in any of the 3 axises).
Turbulence- air pressure loss, which planes will lose altitude. No wind = no lift
@@filmsharks- axes.
Vertical instability of the air. This occurs especially in areas where thunderstorms start to form and extend to high altitudes. If the air speed is too high, the aircraft can break up. Hence there is a "rough air speed" limitation.
Apparently its like going over bumps on a road in a car someone once told me
It’s like going too fast over a human back bridge , one second you’re compressed in the seat the next the seat falls from beneath you
It’s more like being on a rollercoaster and it suddenly drops only not everyone around you is strapped into the seats and there’s a drinks trolley, loose items flying around you, a screaming baby and a couple of drunk people saying stuff that’s making the situation worse just in my experience
@@Purplelemon5033 exactly , I had really bad turbulence when we took off over the mountains in Egypt and your seat randomly falls from beneath you and then your stomach feels funny as you start to drop 😂
Well done to the pilots for doing their best in a bad situation
I would never fly again. Ever.
Bed wetter.
My mother didn't Someone killed on turbulence in 1971..She never flew again.
News reader sounds wasted
Can we notch another BAD mark on the BOEING bedpost...?🤨
Seems anything regarding BOEING planes ✈️ has a bad outcome from falling door & suspicious whistleblowers deaths...? 😲🙄
It probably occurred over the Bay of Bengal between India and Thailand, which is notorious for severe turbulence. Singapore Airlines could be liable for ten of millions of dollars.
thats a shame, as singapore airlines is probably the best service in the world
My thought exactly. I know turbulence can be experienced unexpectantly anywhere, but I have flown this route with Singapore Airlines quite a few times over the last 20 or so years, but when approaching the flight area over the Bay of Bengal between India and Thailand, as you say, the turbulence becomes more severe. I got to the point that after a few flights I was expecting it, but I didn't experience anything as bad as this. Condolences to the family of the man who died and a speedy recovery to those injured.
Arguably, the airline isn't liable.
yesterday at noon I saw a plane through canary wharf high rise buildings who took off from heathrow airport with the front landing gear stuck in the landing position although the main landing gear was fully retracted...
Canary Wharf? Are you sure it wasn’t London City Airport?
@@pfchim2012 I think they are saying they were at canary wharf, but yeah I agree in that I think London city instead of Heathrow because Heathrow is on the total opposite side of London
London City Airport definitely. I live in canary wharf area
Military flights have briefed this for decades....... Do civilian flights brief it out to wear lap belts...... Or do civilians know best?
All flights I've been on do.
"Plunged an incredible 7000ft in 5 mins."
For those who can't do maths that's less than 17 mph
In fact a very standard 3 degree descent profile would see a typical airliner descend at that speed for a routine landing.
Could it have been pilot error then?
Seems to of dropped to much just for turbulence?
@@oldskoolbeats1989
Most likely scenario, there was turbulence, a bump, couple people got hurt
Cabin crew notified the pilot of injured passengers and he chose to land the plane.
Air traffic told him to land at that particular airport probably cause of runway length.
Upon landing they then discovered the dead guy. Likely a heart attack he was 73 and probably jabbed.
Nothing about the plane descent profile suggests an emergency ditch, just a typical landing.
Dropping due to low or no air lift is very different to a descent profile. One is gliding the other is falling
@@quillo2747 17mph descent is a glide.
I'm just pointing out the sensationalisation of the news.
Making a big deal of nothing.
All the best stories have embellishment.
@@user-sx3pc4dj3r fair enough.
So it didn't drop 7k feet because of the turbulence.
It had turbulence and then descended normally...
The msn are scum bags with headlines like that..
This sudden drop sounds suspiciously like yet another incidence of Boeing flight ontrol system failure. The same thing has happened to dozens of flights, the majority of them resulting in total loss of the aircraft and all passengers and crew.
You mean to tell me a plane had a air equivalent to a pot hole...
The sky did.
We need to get accustomed to things like this happening more regularly. whether it's man made climate change or a natural cycle (not looking for a debate on that matter) the weather systems we experience in this era are going to become more complex, more volatile and will cause these kinds of incidents more often
Nearly featured on Air Crash Investigation
People who are frequently travelling by airplanes will know about air turbulence but I gather these days it can be a bit more intense given some of the effects that Climate Change is having on the upper atmosphere.
It's very sad news to hear about the poor guy who has unfortunately lost his life because of this incident on board the Singapore Airlines flight that has had to make an emergency stop in Bangkok.
I am sorry for his wife and family that he leaves behind and for everyone else on board who had to witness his unfortunate death.
Also, there are several other people who have injuries, who presumably weren't wearing their seatbelts.
Please, passengers unless you have an underlying medical issue that makes wearing the seatbelt on board an airliner difficult - please make sure that your own seatbelt is on firmly and securely - particularly when the captain has turned the FASTEN SEATBELT sign on..
So, if anything like this does occur then you are in the best place to survive it uninjured.
I hope that the injured all make a full recovery.
🙏🌺🙏
Why does the reported look desperate to laugh...?
Because The pilots names have been released. They are captin Som Ting-Wong, vice captin, Wi Too-Lo, vice vice captin, Ho Lee-Fuk and vice vice vice captain, Bang Ding-Ow...
@@madebymonkeys5641 😂😂😂😂
The math's ain't mathing
7000 feet drop fall?? Whoosh, that's probably the scariest rollercoaster ride they have and will ever experience...
Most shocking footage?
Free flight as compo
Captain made a horrible decision not to avoid bad weather.
cant always see it unfortunately, Clear air turbulence is very powerful
Air traffic control.
Rather than libelling the aircrew, perhaps you should remove your post.
Holy christ 7000ft!!!
Wear your seatbelt.
This one guy is filling up my entire news feed. Ffs
Support the airline worth millions how about support the family of the dead guy ? Cost less but would mean more ??
The manufacturer, and for that matter the airline, are not responsible for turbulence.
The manufacturer is offering the airline any help that it requires with the investigation.
😭😭😭😭🤲🤲🤲
Ahhhh
why do singapore airlines need to apologise? do they control the weather or an i missing something?
They are being polite and thoughtful.
Another incident involving Boeing is worrisome.
Except this had nothing to do with any design flaws or bad quality control of construction. The brand of plane had no bearing on this incident.
What a shame that you have to sensationalize a tragic accident just to get yourself some attention
She's literally reporting the events, she wasn't sensationalizing it.
Who are you talking to? The person that died?
I thought airplanes were designed to deal with bad turbulence no? Gosh this is just another reason why i hate flying.
Well they are....this proves they are ....turbulence may injure or sadly now kill u but it will almost never damage the plane ...u wear your belt when told & u will be fine ...scary yes ..dangerous to the plane itself ..no
Aeroplanes are designed to handle that and stay airborne, however passengers who are not buckled in will still be thrown around.
Same as car crashes and safety, you could be in a car with the best safety rating and still die in a crash if you werent wearing your seatbelt.
Tanks are designed to not be blown up doesn't stop it happening
Turbulence sucks, I've had it bad and it puts me off flying
Could you imagine if it happened in the toilet while taking a number two or in meal service ...
It did happen in meal service
jeez she's bonny
If we were meant to fly we'd be born with wings
Never been on a holiday?
@@VFXProductionTechnology what's a holiday ? Is that another type of plane ?
FYI The aircraft does the flying, not the person. Hope that helps.
@@rogerhearn5243 not from the description of the passengers during this tragic event
Does that mean that you never travel by car/bus/train etc because you weren't born with wheels?
Sounds like another Boeing maxx gone haywire to me dropping 7000 ft in 5 mins aint turbulence
It's not a 'Max'.
I always wear my seatbelt inflight except when going to the toilet, learn your lesson
Weak heart
I hate wearing a seat belt, I'm always so pleased when the little light comes on to say you can remove them - should we not trust that instrution anymore?
No the instruction just needs to be understood in context.
Safe to unbuckle means you can move out of your seat to fetch items in the overhead bins or visit the toilet, but if you're seated it's still recommended that you buckle up in the case of unexpected turbulence.
That has always been a thing and if you get caught out by bery unexpected turbulence it's mostly just bad luck.
@@G1NZOU Thank you for clarifying , what I should have realised before x
Dropping 7000ft in 5 minutes.
Gives you a good idea how long you will be living in stupefying terror if your plane was to crash.
(One of the many reasons why I won't fly).
I don't care about the car:plane crash statistics. At least when you're driving a car, you have more chances to act in a way to avoid an accident. Commonly, car accidents involve very few people. Pile ups happen, but only rarely.
In a plane - your life is solely in the hands of the pilot, not knowing how reckless, or experienced, or healthy, or depressed he is. And then there's the plane. You get in it, not knowing how reliable it is, if there's a bomb on board, if there are hijackers aboard ready to start taking out hostages, if it is going to fly into a flock of poor birds, or hit a critically bad pocket of turbulence.
Jesus. Would love to go on holiday with you.😢😢
should have stuck to riding the big dipper at the fairground safer and you get a big hotdog
I'm baffled at how turbulence can cause a plane to drop 7,000ft in 6mins.. It's exceptionally rare for planes these days to drop any amount of altitude even with the most severe turbulence. Something significant must've happened that's not being disclosed by Boeing. 🤔
The standards are dropping money and too much diversity are just two reasons.
Boeing again! Do not set foot on a Boeing 🙈
Yep only Boeing can't see invisible turbulence
Yes, Boeing is manufacturing turbulent atmospheres 🙄
It’s pronounced BOING!!
This has nothing to do with the type of aircraft.
And, in actual fact I think you will find that Singapore Airlines generally favour Airbus a380 and a350 most of the time these days.
Couldn't say for sure if they own any Dreamliners but I don't think so.
I know that they have some 777.
Don't get me wrong, I am no fan of Boeing either but air turbulence and air pockets have nothing whatsoever to do with the plane having been built in Seattle USA or Toulouse France.
The pilots names have been released. They are captin Som Ting-Wong, vice captin, Wi Too-Lo, vice vice captin, Ho Lee-Fuk and vice vice vice captain, Bang Ding-Ow...
Not a laughing matter. Grow up.
@@well-blazeredman6187 I am grown up..... I'm 5'9 ....
So planes can't fly in air pockets? Never heard of this? Or is that the cause of turbulence ?
What does this idiot mean the sheer chaos on landing the passengers have frequently commended the actions of the crew and people in Bangkok for their brilliance … jeez
Start Suing .. you just lost your father am sure theres somethings you could gain from your loss .
People over 80 should not be allowed to board the plane or have big insurance,imagine whaf disruption for other passengers
boeing...says it all
I blame Iran
Yet Taylor swift does this 6 times a day
Sus
he bought the ticket, he knew what he would be getting in to.......
