Could this event have been prevented, and what tiny error in the equipment led to such a catastrophic accident? Watch today's new video to find out more abut the horrific tragedy that was Flight 232.

[@lukes7479]

They are redundant, there are many redundancies in place. In the aviation industry we have a general rule and it is to practise at least dual redundancy, meaning if one system fails, there is at least one other system to back it up. In this case, there was triple redundancy on the hydraulic system, which is why it is such a rare occurrence that all three failures would occur at once.

[@1SqueakyWheel]

@@aaron4ism He made that report before all the pertinent data was in. Engine failures damage other parts of the plane so rarely that it wasn't a thought. Any pilots whose career is to fly multi engine aircraft will generally have a handful of stories to tell about having had to shut down a misbehaving engine and either finishing the plotted flight, or altering course for a closer airport. So losing an engine usually isn't a gloom&doom scenario. And the pilot did the right thing regarding it as he did based on what he knew at the time.

[@northernyetigaming8566]

An airplane engine cant explode, this man is delusional. Send him to the infirmary! *pukes in aviation*

I remember when this happened. It was amazing that the pilots got the plane on the ground; if not for the last-second wing-dip, it could have made it. What was more amazing was that so many people survived. In later simulations, other crews weren't able to even get their planes near an airfield; testimony to the cool headedness of this crew, their combined training, and a lot of luck.

[@fakename8656]

Just want to say, that this is my favorite video on this channel. Every once in awhile i find myself looking for this video to watch one more time

[@lavasharkandboygirl9716]

This is heartbreaking, but a genuinely amazing story to hear. A lot of your guys videos annoy me, just in their wording, but this is very well worded, animated and generally well told. Captain Haines and everyone under him on that plane and on the ground did everything right.

[@amandaappels8371]

The senior flight attendant and two pilots filmed an episode of “I survived.” The flight attendant’s story really stuck with me as she recalled announcing the safety protocol instructions of the time, which were to place any lap children on the floor before bracing for landing. She later had to try to stop the mother of the young boy from running into the raging fire and the mother said “you told me to put him on the ground and now he’s gone.” It was horrifically heartbreaking and Jan says she believes she survived just so she could make a change in regulations for child safety on airlines.

[@PeugeotRocket]

@Taiwanlight Not understandable at all. She was simply doing her job and following protocol. It is illogical for her to feel any responsibility for something she had no control over.

[@sweetnaomi56]

Though it's no required, the safest place for lap infants is in an FAA approved car seat, I would never fly with a baby in my lap, even if it is free. Don't want to risk it.

I can't believe people still haven't done anything about the "lap child" situation

[@Jakeobfreedman]

Commercial flight accidents are so incredibly rare, it would cost a small fortune to retrofit existing and add them to new planes with questionable tangible benefits. In fact, in this case 38% of passengers died whereas 1 in 4 (25%) of lap children died

[@HelloKittyFanMan.]

Lap children vs. _regular_ passengers, @@Jakeobfreedman.

[@blls0deep0]

Why would they? Out of all of the children who died in this crash, as well as the regular passengers, 1 was a lap child. 1. Based on the evidence, it would seem lap childen had the best odds of survival. Why would they change regulations regarding lap child safety if the current one works?

I had a similar experience. I had a complete loss of all hydraulic brakes in my car, and I needed to travel 30 miles to get to the nearest mechanic to fix the brake line that had burst. So I used engine braking to slow down for stop signs / stop lights, and then when down to only 15 mph I would use the cable activated rear emergency brakes to come to a complete stop. It's possible to control a vehicle that has a total loss of hydraulics, but it is not much fun.
