Global News has the story.
Ramesh Viswashkumar, the sole survivor of Air India’s Flight 171 – which fatally crashed into a building in Ahmedabad on Thursday – has spoken out, sharing his harrowing experience escaping the wreckage of the Boeing 787-8 Dreamliner.
“I don’t [know] how I survived,” Viswashkumar told a reporter from his hospital bed Friday. “It was in front of my eyes that the air hostess and others [died]," he added.
Viswashkumar said the portion of the plane he was in landed on the ground of the medical college hostel the aircraft hit. He said the side of the plane he was on had a “little space” which he was able to escape from, further noting that if anyone on the other side of the plan had survived, they would not have been able to escape.
The crash killed 241 people on board, including a Canadian dentist from Mississauga, Ont.
