When we think of collisions involving aviation disasters. Its hard to imagine anything worse than a collision involving two aircraft. After all, some of the deadliest aviation disasters involved such scenario. The story behind this video however is that of an airplane collision involving three planes. A disaster which occurred in Guangzhou China in October of 1990. How this all transpired comes down to the plot of one man.
The recorded collision of the two planes was very disturbing. Imagine you are waiting in the airport but suddenly you hear a bangs and explosion of the two planes
He as r a bangs
Hmmmm I guess I don't fancy a vacation anymore....
how did they manage to tpae this
As a flight sim pilot who reflects on real life things, all airport operations would be halted in order to let emergency services go through.
can't imagine what it must have been like for the survivors to live through not one but two plane crashes, minutes apart. like, you think your world is ending, and then it's actually okay, and then *it happens again*. great video, as always!
I have been in similar situations (mentally speaking >_
Not to lessen it or anything but the first crash only severely damaged the 707, not the 737 which would only explode in the next collision
It's frankly astonishing that anyone aboard the 737 survive at all considering the violence of the second impact and subsequent disintegration as it travels further down
This person handles these situations with care and respect.
I remember hearing a story about a guy hijacking a plane and demanding the pilots to take him to Israel. "Okay," said the captain and took him to Israel, where upon the hijacker disembarking the Israeli police force greeted him explained in a very impolite manner that apparently plane hijacking is an act of terrorism, and Israeli do not like terrorists, like, a lot, and he'd have to spend the rest of his life behind bars.
Hijackers are so fucking dumb. Like, who the hell would give an asylum to a criminal anyway.
Ironic
Wow, I’ve never heard of this disaster before, crazy considering how significant it was! Thank you for covering it
It was long ago I think
You make great content. There are lots of rail disasters to cover as well as ship disasters. While I don't think I'd ever get tired of your plane videos, I fully support expanding into other content
I hope they acknowledge this comment
This aged well haha
This is my first time hearing of this incident. Thank you for sharing the story. I don't think many people realize just how common highjackings used to be around the world. There are so many events that it is hard to pick which stores to share.
In the US highjackings were so frequent that passengers boarded flights wondering if they would divert to Havana.
I know this video was a bit shorter, there is going to be a longer video coming this Tuesday!

So how this a "collision involving 3 (THREE) planes"?!??
@@shantanusapru The hijacked plane hit the first plane with the wing and only the pilot was on board. The second one and the hijacked one both with passangers eventually collided and exploded. Totalling to three aircraft involved.
@@mozvidz Ah! Got it! Thanks! Guess I wasn't paying much attention... ;-)
Great video mate! I actually can't wait for the train video
Video idea-1998 ariana afghan boeing 727 crash
I've been waiting for someone to do this for a while, such a fascinating incident and the only one to date where this has happened
Fascinating is definitely the wrong word, unless you are sick in the head.
@@Round_Slinger why?? It's not meant in the terms of perverted fascination. It's a fascinating story.
@@Round_Slinger so saying this is extremely interesting is "sick in the head"? Why did you watch it? Why are you in the comments if you yourself don't find it interesting?
@@Round_Slinger the tragic nature of the event should not detract from the unusual aspects of it in regards to aviation disaster history which can be seen as fascinating to an observer
You frankly have to be not right in the head to not understand this
I have been waiting this incident to be covered too ever since I found out about it, dear OP.
Interesting case and not one I had heard of before, thank you for covering this in such detail....China saw a spate of fatal air crashes in the 90s and I suspect that both flight procedure AND airport procedures were struggling to cope with the sudden mass expansion in Chinese air travel as people started to earn better wages and wanted to become tourists
I don’t consider it really was “a spate”, it was rather about average of the time.
Like you can’t really blame the Chinese for the Korean Air Cargo crashing their plane, because the captain got confused on what altitude they were cleared for and pitching the plane down into a un-recoverable attitude.
And at the same time US also had incidents like Colgan Air… etc…
The only recent crash in China is a suspected pilot murder-suicide, so they seems to be pretty well on the safety front.😊
@@AaronShenghao you're right, those are fair points....I think (hope) that aviation is safer in the 2020s now because of some of those accidents and the lessons learned?
First time I hear about this hijack/accident. Thank you for the interesting and informative upload.
The video of the 737 and 757 colliding scared me to my core. I can only imagine how the occupants of the planes and the people at the airport were feeling at that moment.
There are three of those squawk codes, out of interest. 7500: hijacking 7600: radio/comms fault, 7700: general emergency. Here’s how I remember them:
75: man with a knife
76: I need my radio fixed
77: I’m falling from heaven
Also, in the case of complete comms failure, there are ATC measures in place for this, such as waving them in, or I guess one could also have a military intercept to guide them in.
75 Taken alive?
7500: fortnite kid hijack attempt
7600: FM radio broken
7700: someone shat on the floor
"Squawk 7700 to get priority service! and an extensive welcoming party."
Good work Chloe! Favorite part of every Saturday tbh
I was actually born in Guangzhou and my dad worked at China Southern, so thanks for making this video!
Did you ever hear a reason given for firing airport staff? What were they expected to do differently with a plane that was under the control of a hijacker and never even stopped? That baffles me. I'm very interested in their reasoning. Thanks!
@@beenaplumber8379 idk lol that was a loooooong time ago
@@ATIMELINEOFAVIATION Ok, thanks for the reply. I suspect they needed someone to blame, but I don't know.
Thank you for making this video
Thank you for watching!
Your welcome and I hope you do Twa flight 800 next pls
I know a three plane collision is physically possible, but I didn't think it would be something that would happen in a millennium
It’s 2 separate collisions
Rammstein air show collision was a 3 plane collision too.
Chloe, I must say that you do these videos really well. Not only are they well researched, well animated, well scripted and well narrated but they are done in an unusually sympathetic and respectful manner that most other channels like this don't.
FANTASTIC JOB CHLOE!!!!
What a waste of life & resources...,RIP those who lost their lives...,condolences to the survivors.
Thank you for posting this. I had never heard of it before.
Greetings from Xiamen, I had never heard of this one. Great video
Yesss! Yet another vid! I was waiting:)
keep the good work up!
I look forward to these videos every Saturday!
Was waiting for ur video from morning ...
With previous serious incidents like this dealing with flight deck intrusions, why on earth wasn’t cockpit security, procedures and access made much more stringent and rigid prior to 9/11? It just defies belief!
All regulations are written in blood. In this case we just didn't have enough blood (apparently) to have reinforced doors across all aircraft.
Did the Chinese authorities conduct an ICAO annex 13 investigation, involving Boeing and the NTSB? Or was this more of a criminal investigation without the details being known outside of China at the time.
On US carriers, our system was either a cockpit key, a prearranged knock,or a call on the interphone. I don't think the door was ever actually unlocked. Alot easier to breach, tho. Also , the B737-300 was a United Airlines interior. That series was sometimes referred to as the "Killer Bee". Thanks for this, Chloe. Great job, as usual.
Before then most hijackings ended peacefully as long as you complied with their demands. That changed with 9/11 as compliance led to the weaponization of the plane itself.
No, only after 911 did they beef up doors and actually keep them locked.
Weird that this is the only really popular video about this crash, usually such serious disasters have more than one video with this amount of views.
This was also the first major accident to involve a boeing 757
Cool, are you early ? It’s midnight here in Australia but I still think you put it out early I’m excited, just message while the adds playing
"Prepare for trouble..."
"...and make it triple."
Well, we need to continue this.
This video was really good
Thanks for making the video. As a citizen and an aviation fan living in Guangzhou, I've read so many local reports and wiki stories but for the first time I'm able to see the raw video footage of the collision, truly scary. Back in 1980s when mainland China opened the gate and fixed the relationship with ROC, a couple of hijack incidents happened.
My first time hearing about this also. Thanks
The copilot on the Xiamen Air 373 was a man named YingZhao. My family lived in the apartment across from his in 1989 & 1990. I'm not sure why so little is publicly known about the rest of the crew on board :(
First I've heard of this incident. I enjoyed it very much!
Never expected Disaster Breakdown would cover this accident.
also first comment
Wow! Crazy story!!
Very nice graphics
That’s pretty much what you’d call the worst case scenario. If you had to plan for something like this you probably wouldn’t have been this pessimistic about what might happen. Just devastating.
4:41 now, that this is common knowledge and even movies are called after it I sure hope there are other features as well in place, notifying the controller of a highjack
The hijacker is stupid for not choosing to go to Hong Kong.
Hijack seemed to not be playing with a full deck if you know what I mean.
@@sparthyslaysstuff2405 he left his aces in the wrong trousers
@@dontspikemydrink9382 And his kings, queens, jacks, 10s...
What the heck. I haven't heard about this. Okay! Thanks for it
If I remember correctly, this incident ended up being the first recorded hull loss of a 757.
I assume the pilot would've been in serious trouble from above if he had given in to the hijacker. Not only for obeying and flying out of the country, but also for flying to a place as controversial as Taiwan.
I think Taiwan shooting down the plane would be a serious possibility as well. This was an exceptionally tense moment in relations between the two.
There were a series of hijackings in China during the 90's where the planes landed in Taiwan without incident. This incident was the only exception to that.
Yeah running out of fuel is serious trouble
There's a vid about the Grand Canyon collision from the 50s. The CGI depiction of the planes colliding is incredibly realistic. Disturbing as hell too!
How have I never heard of this?
As a train nerd I must say that I am extremely hyped for the train accident video
Me too. I bet it will be a great episode!
Great video as always! Was wondering if you would ever explore the crash that killed Macedonian president Boris Trajkovski.
7:37 (ironic timestamp lol) ooh, I love the captainsim 707!
We really gotta get a handle on these planes exploding so easily
its sort of unavoidable, because they need to carry fuel, and lots of it.
4:40 The pilot may have flicked over to a hot mic, so the tower would be able to hear everything going on in the background
Next April Fools' Day, consider doing an episode about Wayfarer 515. (*grins*)
Or Oceanic 815
With all the people who have jobs in Security at Airports and for Plane travel....why the hell did it take so damn long to figure out YOU NEED to keep the nuts from getting into the Pilot's cabin. Seems like NO ONE in several countries ever came to this conclusion.
Yeah, I never understood that either. It took 911 to change things. In my opinion, these newer security rules should have been put in place when modern passenger service started in the early 1960's.
@@bobby1970 You'd think one "security" person would pipe up with "Hey I think someone with a fake bomb might fool us into a terrible event guys!" No?
@@robertgiles9124 Yeah, it's hard to believe they didn't suspect anything.
Not sure what the staff at the airport could have done differently, but I guess there are now procedures for this?
9/11 hat die Luftfahrt grundlegend verändert. Changed everything regarding this topic "open cockpit door" etcetc
Cool
The actual footage of the collision came from Guangdong Provincial TV, which they already dispatched news crew to the airport to report this news
That video was horrifying
World's First collision that involved 3 planes 😢
Finally!!!😁
Why the hell did he attack the pilot? I mean obviously he was off his meds anyway but wtf?
wow w2s will be inetrested
OOOOOOOOH A RAIL DISASTER!!!!! I can’t wait! ~~*happy railfoamer noises*~~
My question is why couldn't they have flown to Tiwan?
So during the Chinese revolution after WWII The communists ousted the ruling parties who retreated to Taiwan. They formed separate governments and those governments exist to this day. This was a particularly tense moment in relations between the two because just two years earlier the Tiananmen Square incident made international headlines. By comparison Hong Kong was a British protectorate during that time and had stable relations with both parties and long term plans to reintegrate into mainland China. People tend to think of Asia as a homogenous mass but every country has their own unique cultural and political history.
@@abebuckingham8198 I was mainly asking about why the captain was so insistent on landing in Hong Kong even when there was a possible bomb onboard
@@toptiergaming6900 Before 9/11 standard procedure was to try and appease hijackers because it had the highest success rate of safely getting everyone else off the plane. He would have been looking for some way to compromised given the current political situation.
My condolences 🙏🏽 SHALAWAM ❤
See you on Tuesday pal
It's great that you included the Chinese characters and used pinyin for the Chinese names. Way to go!
Jesus...
Why you said we will meet you again in tuesday
In his into he says there be a video on Tuesday because this is a short video, I mean in the description it say that
@indra project, read my first comment for the answer to your question
Did the 737 have the fuel to make it to Taiwan?
Yes. Even if the plane could not have made it to Taipei, Kinmen Airport, which is Taiwanese controlled and located just off the coast of China, is literally within view of Xiamen by naked eye.
@@dynasty0019 And was the runway there big enough at the time?
It is said Taiwan awarded many mainland hijackers as "anti-communist hero" but they won't do it anymore as they learned how dangerous the hijack can be. Mainland actually flew the plane to Taipei for another hijackers and turned the person to Taiwan police.
Please make a video about the deadliest plane crash in China. China Northwest airlines flight 2303, killing 160 people. The plane exploded in mid air following a structural failure.
"One member of crew even let him in as he assumed the roses he was holding was somehow a gift for the pilots. Perhaps thinking it was in relation to the moon festival,,,"
Ah yes the sounds reason to open the cockpit door indeed...
nice video, as always! but you should use better quality maps 😄 it‘s so pixelated and the water is red 🤔
Has anyone ever told you that your upload schedule is the exact same as Mini Air Crash Investigation. Every Saturday.
Saturdays are when I binge all the airplane accident vids.
The situation was out of the captains authoritie why he didn’t listen cost the lives of almost 130 people, dude didn’t have a bomb so in reality no one was in danger till the captain decided to do what he want to do.. in reality it’s kinda his fault all those people died, that’s why things are done differently
Comment for the algo
9/11 hijackers didn't need box cutters, just roses.
They probably did not have fuel to reach Taiwan safely
New procedures were developed to handle hijackings in China, but the government certainly never addressed the fact that if their citizens were marginalized under an oppressive regime and willing to risk death to escape.
Yeah, sadly I could completely understand the hijacker's desperation to leave the PRC! Just tragically sad that he chose such a bizarre method & took so many people down with him 😢
Bros almost reapeats in history
Can you make china eastern airlines flight 5735
How the hell did China get all these Boeing aircraft as early as 1980s
Don't you know that Chinese international relations had already warm as early as the mid-70s after Nixon's visit? It's not rocket science that they would be able to get those planes as business starts to flourish after the opening up of relations following that visit.
@@farhanatashiga3721 oh I forgot about that. Also I think Mao died around then so that makes even more sense
"It's never explained why the captain didn't concede to the hijacker's demand and fly to Taiwan."
I mean, this happened in China literally a year after the Tiananmen Incident. So, the captain literally had no choice there.
@bobbiebob575 bob Theres a HUGE difference between going to Hong Kong and going to Taiwan. Most of us Westeners fail spectacularly at understanding Eastern philosophy, culture, code of honor etc. I am by no means anywhere near understanding, but I do know, that there wouldve been a huge difference between Hong Kong and Taiwan, and that the captain may very well have felt it completely impossible to go to Taiwan, that it would be a line, that he simply could not cross, coz the consequences of doing so would be much worse and much more far reaching than the hijacker exploding the plane.
@bobbiebob575 bob Hong Kong and Taiwan are not comparable. I would encourage you to look at the history after World War II in more detail as to why that's the case. It's like the difference between being asked to fly through hostile territory or to a neutral third party.
@bobbiebob575 bob flying to Taiwan would have turned this into an international incident and the hijacked plane into a political football. Flying to Hong Kong would not. That's the difference.
@@dfuher968 What's their to understand? Both Taiwan and Hong Kong are Chinese and Hong Kong was not a part of China back then
@@asdf3568 Or... What's "there" to understand?
I understand that under authoritarian regimes, heads gotta roll when something goes wrong to protect the top bosses, but what possible excuse could there be for blaming anyone on the ground at Guangzhou? The plane never stopped. What could they have done differently? The only actors were the hijacker and the flight crew on the 737.
They could have ordered the 757 back to the gate, or ordered the 757 to punch it away from the incoming 737.
No more mint mobile commercials please!
Bruh stole from his employer and only took 3k? Thems rookie numbers.
Chinese fire drill
So avoidable, if the pilot had flown to Taiwan everything would have been ok.
Boeing bounces like a BOEING

All the security in the world will never detect mental illness. I believe Captains of aircraft should be trained in using weapons and allowed to carry them on all flights.
The problem is that there have been cases of pilots crashing a plane on purpose, one involving the pilot locking the rest of the crew out of the cockpit to do so if I remember correctly. So if you allow them to carry weapons one could use the element of surprise to take out the other pilot and crash the plane. Also there is a risk that a passenger could knock someone out who isn't expecting an attack and take their weapon. Pilots need to be extremely concentrated at times, having to keep track of different instruments, making calculations in their head, communicating with air traffic control and much more. It's impossible for them to be at high alert all the time for a potential attack and be able to react in time.
@@Eeveelyn speaking of intentional crashes, that most recent crash of a chinese airlines turned out to be intentional as well
This is hijacking....it’s not an air accident....it’s hijacking. Chinese pilots are good. The hijacker is a bad person.
It is still an air accident and the hijacker was.
Guangzhou is pronounced Gwung'joe' - zhou = joe / zhao - is pronounced like 'now' but with 'j' - so your way of saying it would be spelled " Guangzhao'
Cantonese is pronounced Gwong-Zow. I'm US, my wife is from Guangzhou. She's obviously fluent in Cantonese and Mandarin. Yours is a try at a Mandarin pronunciation. It's actually Gwong-Zoe. English speakers commonly say ...joe.
Is English your first language? The content is fascinating, but the video is peppered with syntactical glitches.
Yes, Chloe is from Newcastle, England.
Sigh..
lol, you speak to a native english woman.

Jesus Christ loved us enough to die for us, so that we may have our sins forgiven and inheret eternal life in God's kingdom. Salvation is a gift of God's grace, love, and mercy. Your own goodness can't save you but only by believing and trusting in the Lord Jesus Christ that he will cleanse you with his righteousness so that God may see you nd accept you into his kingdom. May God bless you and may he reveal his glory and his mercy to you this day in Jesus name, Amen.
