I guess you missed something! The aircraft was FLAPLESS and SLATSLESS !! The right engine's reverser came out due to impact but this did not happen for the left engine.

As the a/c was gearless and without hydraulics which means the pilots could not use flaps/slats to come for the approach and land with speeds around 140 knots... they ended up with speeds around 190-200 knots. Without landing gear and accumulator pressure to use manual braking the a/c skid of the runway with high speed. The crash was inevitable. My 10 cents opinion after 35 years as Captain flying Boeings and Airbus.
But as far as I can tell from the video, the spoilers are deployed. Thus, I would suggest that there is Hydraulic pressure or is there a way to deploy them without Hydraulics?

Only thing that comes to mind is a poorly handled catastrophic hydraulics failure, but still they would've had to lose all systems or not try to engage the emergency ones, some company is going to get burned badly be it Boeing, the airline or whoever was responsible for maintenance
The wall is there to support the ILS system. They came down way too late on the runway. Runways can only be so long and there is usually something at the end of every runway. A lot of times there are freeways at the end of runways. I read that by the time the plane touched down, 3/4 of the runway was already gone.
false. there were probably other things like another berm, pit, behind that wall that were going to shred it anyway. it's not like without the wall the plane made some attempt to escape. some airports have tall city buildings on a steep mountain to climb over. it's not a place to expect to keep sliding regardless of airport, not all of them are in a perfectly flat desert or ocean to skid into gently. this had far too much speed, no attempt to pull up and keep gliding for a better area. maybe some control surfaces failed or the pilot was a moron of some kind, the wall is to be avoided anyway.
I'm not so sure about that. They have suffered invations, civil wars, country division; in the 90s a Shopping Mall collapsed and kill 500 people; it wasn't so long ago a boat with more than 300 highschool students died on the Jeju ferry tragedy. Korean people are quite resilient.
Imagine of all the passengers breathed a sigh of relief, thinking they'd landed safely unaware of the shocking collision awaiting them. Only the pilot knew that they will hit the wall. This is very heartbreaking 😭💔 my condolences to all the families who losts their loved ones 😭😭😭
I watched the video over and over again. It is remarkable to see that no major damages were made to the aircraft during the the amazing successful emergency belly landing (no landing gears) with very balanced wings, except some smoke caused by the friction of the plane's belly to the runway. I am shocked, however, to see the wall / structure at the end of the runway. What is it there for? The aircraft would have survived beautifully with minimal or no loss of life if the structure was not there.
same here too. Imagine if that runway was much longer allowing more room to recover from. I do think these runways needs to be a mile longer now to allow recovery because that plane could have easily survived with a longer runway or more room for recovery.
@@kouroshcyrus7596 Not really. Better if they'd had time to foam the runway, but a good belly landing usually only tears up the under side & engines. The wall was a jet blast wall to protect whatever is on the other side from engine blast when the runway is used for take offs in the other direction (most runways have 2 numeral and letter designators, 1 set for use in each direction) because take off & landing should be done as near straight into an headwind as possible.). Some things don't tolerate jet blasts well. That the wall was there this time was an unfortunate tragedy.
The structure you're looking at is called a Localizer, and it is a critical piece of equipment for aircraft to land in low visibility situations or at night. That said, whoever decided to mount the localizer on a concrete pad on top of an earthen berm is a monumental idiot. Airports in Europe or the US require their localizers to be mounted flush with the runway and with a breakaway bolt system so that in the event of a collision or runway overrun similar to what happened here, the localizer antennas merely give way to the aircraft on the ground, and not act like a solid obstacle that guarantees a fatal impact.
I thought so too at first. But with that speed they had sliding down the runway, it would probably break into pieces anyway, but with the chance of more people surviving the crash
@@johnl1091 There's a LOT of "monumental idiocy" between urban planning & airports! I learned that by the time I hit HS, having literally grown up watching it happen at Idlewild (now JFK), from when it's 2 quonset hits, 1 hangar, a few taxiways & a runway or 2 in the midst of a swamp when it opened in July of '48, through its transition to jets & JFK w/ whole housing developments right on the other side of runway fences!
After the lading runway there MUST be a clear flat and not obstructed free space in case of such emergency landings and building a concrete wall close to the end of the landing runway is totally insane and absurd .
The plane already landed suppose in a long landway since thats the landing area is about 4k. But the hydrolics was mixed up by the gravity as while the plane was too fast.
@@CharGC123 most runways are designed to be used in either direction. Aircraft always want to take off and land into the wind whenever possible. That's why airports will typically have two perpendicular runways, space allowing, so that the most favorable one can be used at any given time. I doubt there was any good reason to design the runway with a massive wall at the end.
I read that they are calling it "...the worst air disaster in the country's history." I'm thinking that Flight 007 in '83 was worse with 269 lives lost
This is the longest video I've seen, if you listen closely after the jet hits the berm you can hear one main engine and what might be the APU winding down. That would be significant info if APU was running.
I'm a Korean middle school student, and while I was resting on the weekend, I suddenly heard on the news that Jeju Air Flight 2216 had an accident, and I was depressed all day.
Oh. My. God. That was so difficult to watch without shedding a tear and shaking. May they rest in eternal peace. May their families find support, love, and comfort somehow, though it seems unattainable right now.
As a bomber pilot, I have to agree. Losing 1 engine is not a difficult emergency. Especially for something as simple as an airliner. Speculation is that they ran the checklist in a rush and shut off their remaining engine by mistake. Loss of a single engine should always be handled slowly and with a calm head. You should have hours to troubleshoot and have no difficulty with maintaining aircraft control.
Thats what ive been saying.. its a dang pilot error.. the two flight crew is abit suspicious theyve survive and they went furthest back of the plane.. seems like they know what theyre doing.. few flight crew doesnt survive but this 2 who survived arent lucky i find it fishy
@sollyxdoomyx7905 What's hard to understand? They were furthest to the back and facing backwards. They were in the best position to survive the impacf.
I wonder why there was an embankment or wall at the end of the runway for any aircraft to hit in such an emergency accident like this. Extra extended flat land is usually a mandatory feature at airports.
Read from some news the wall is at the start of runway and that the plan landed from opposite direction. Then again, makes no sense to have a wall at beginning of a runway but read that the airport store some items there - really stupid design.
@@evonlee190 There is a concrete wall at both ends actually, to the idiots who keep shouting that they landed in the "wrong" direction (as if there is such a thing).
9 seconds and distance about 1300 meters meaning - 144 meters per second - means 533km per hour... Thats why they can not stop on runway. Something was happened with avionics, with flaps, with electrical system. That speed 533km/h means that crew did not use configuration for landing.... why? We do not know.
@@eppsislike The runway at Muan International Airport is 2,800 meters (9,186 feet) long, but it looks like much less of it was covered by the skidding B737. The speed certainly was a lot less than the 544 Km/sec. as claimed above, and was probably closer to the 200 Knots as noted in other comments. Without flaps the aircraft had to make a high speed landing or it would have stalled, and that nose-up attitude or alternative high sink rate do not appear in the bit of video being shown.
I can't get used to this current world where the great tragedies are captured in the foreground in such a crude way, on all the television channels and networks. Before, it was very difficult to see something so traumatic in a mass medium. I can imagine how cruel it is. It will be for the families of the victims to see this 😢
Rest In Peace everyone who died 😭 what a sad way to end 2024 I was in South Korea waiting to fly back to Australia but this wasn’t Incheon airport which is another airport in South Korea and I was at Incheon but then my heart broke when I heard the news of Jeju air crashing and I was flying Asiana Airlines to Australia so I was a bit scared which is not normal for me I’m in Australia now 🇦🇺
@@stormking99 Then stop saying it because you're misleading people. There was no "wrong way" in this situation, planes routinely take off and land from either direction (like with almost every major airport in the world) depending on which is safest or most efficient with the wind conditions. In this case there were no winds and it didn't matter which direction they landed, they just needed to go down in an emergency wherever it was convenient. Even in the other direction there's a wall and earthen mound at the same distance that would have produced just as bad an outcome.
My question is why the landing gear wasn't down and locked. Even if it was a bird strike, and they lost power and hydraulics, the landing gear system has a manual override that will do a gravity release of the doors and gear. You couldn't then re lift the gear but it's certainly better than an over speed belly landing. Additionally with a manual gravity drop, the gear would also have reduced the speed via drag and this outcome could have been very different.
It was going so fast, that I think the pilots were attempting to abort the landing and take off again. That didn't seem to work without the rear wheels acting as a pivot point.
The crazy thing is everyone is praying(which is good)but just in a eye or a fire you can’t imagine the feeling for those poor people that died instantly while we just look at it it’s really devastating. Also to the families knowing there kids or loved ones burned
from the looks of it, even under normal plane functionality, they wouldn't be able to stop and would've crashed. with landing gear and flap and everything working fine, still they would've crashed. it is simply not possible to slow down a plane at such a short amount of time.
This is the full length video, but the beginning is blurred for text. Apparently the plane touched down right after video started, which means he has less than 900mtrs of runway to work with.
Speed was higher than I imagined, I wondered if breaking all the window glasses and opening the emergency door would absorb enough wind drag. Man. Rest in Peace.
Without the ability to brake, i dont think it make much sense to land at sea where at that speed touching the sea would be an instant nose dive, not a pilot tho, just my logic
water landings have highest death rate so even if he decided to land there and somehow didnt die , he would lose pilot licence since he could land on airport. Sully landed on water since he wouldnt make into airport but this pilot landed but because of failure/ bad training it was disaster. but i guess we cant make judgments until we get black box recordings
There are already two airplanes boing 737-800 of Jeju Air involve in the same landing gear incident, so the goverment have to review the maintenance program of that Airline.
The wall there is localizer equipment that sits at the 'starting point' of a landing runway. This aircraft landed from the opposite direction(probably due to acute circumstances) of where it should have come, which explains why the wall was at the 'end' of the runway, not the starting point. Had it landed from the proper direction, things could have been different.
As far as I know, we can land on a runway from both directions depending on the wind, so that explanation is just weird... unless this is a weird place where the wind direction quadrant is always the same. There should never be a concrete wall there. There is no fixed "end" or "starting point" in a runway. Since when the wind is forced to always blow from the same direction? You have to land against the predominant wind, unless it is so weak it fits the minimums to land with a tail wind. Is this Lukla Airport or something? Any terrain obstacle to force it to land always in the same direction? I don´t think so.
Jeju Air flight 2216 crashed on December 29, 2024 at Muan International Airport, South Korea. The Boeing 737-800 aircraft was carrying 181 people, consisting of 175 passengers and 6 cabin crew. According to initial reports, the accident was suspected to have been caused by the failure of the front landing gear which did not work when approaching the runway. This caused the plane to skid and hit a concrete wall at the airport, then caught fire. Before landing, the control tower had given a warning about birds around the airport area and suggested changing the runway. However, one minute later, the pilot sent a distress call and attempted an emergency landing which unfortunately failed. The death toll in this incident was reported to vary between 29 and 179 people, with only two people being rescued.
If I’m not wrong, it’s almost certain that the death toll is 179 people… With the two survivors being a male and female attendant pulled from the tail end of the wreckage…
You can literally see two passengers flying to the top right of the screen with their legs and arms flailing. It is horrific and sad. Rest in peace to all.
If you watch the video at playback speed of 0.25, after the plane crashed into the wall and exploded, debris and bodies were hurled and strewn out of the craft. It’s horrifying to watch. 😢
A former Boeing employee and whistle blower John Barnet known for raising concerns about the firm's production standards has been found dead in the US. He said in some cases, sub-standard parts had even been removed from scrap bins and fitted to planes that were being built . Plane bodies made by Boeing's largest supplier regularly left the factory with serious defects, according to a former quality inspector at the firm. He was accustomed to finding "anywhere from 50 to 100, 200" defects on fuselages - the main body of the plane
You can clearly hear the cameraman breathing at the very end of the video like he is holding himself very hard to capture this crucial moment that might be important for the investigation, pretty sure he will have a hard time to sleep after that incident
Then I´m grateful you´re not the cameraman. It´s what TetragrammatonAD posted. Some people have to be professional at this and the heavy breathing of this cameraman says it all...
The New York Post shows more of the footage post crash and you can hear from their breathing and murmuring that they've not taken it well. People react differently when exposed to shock but doesn't mean they're not affected
Lots and lots of armchair pilots/aviation mechanics in these comments sections who weren't there, but knows more about the situation and would have done differently to save the plane than the actual pilots.
I know nothing about aviation but I think it is fair to say something went tragically wrong, I do not like blame games but on this occasion something or someone needs to be held accountable.
you can clearly see that the nose is up effortlessly, and the plane is not slowing down at all. What most likely happened is that the thrust the pilot was applying to stop the aircraft was actually working in the forward direction. He was better off cutting off both engines after belly landing. He went into that Burm at full speed.
Why is there reinforced concrete being used for the localizer ? tbh, there is no reason for a reinforced concrete wall, its a flat ground and if height was needed, then a simple metal localizer antenna support should be sufficed. Design problem?
Just realized that, now wondered about that too. I checked on google street map, this airfield has concrete wall all around it, including both end of the runway. And it seem located pretty close to the end of the runway tarmac (190m at the north end, and 205m at the south end). Even more weird, theres still huge empty land (only some roads) after both of the concrete wall. I'm not aviation expert, but usually i just see metal wire fence / chain link fence at the end of runways in my country, but never concrete wall.
Even if there had not been a concrete wall, the speed and friction that the airplane was generating would have been enough to cause an explosion before it fully lost speed. The root cause was obviously a mishap that occurred on the fuselage, which was not stable enough to withstand a bird strike during landing
@@mlwee6796bruh it’s an 800 not a Max, they’ve been around since the late 90s and very successful. This has got to be a maintenance/hydraulics issue, no flaps, no gear.
@@raykim9760 Wrong, without the concrete wall, the number of deaths would be way lesser. And for your second sentence, you have no idea what youre talking about.
If it is known that the landing gear was about to be deployed but malfunctioned, why didn't the pilot decide to land in the water rather than on an airport runway where there is a risk of not being able to stop on the limited runway length and there is a high risk of fire???
Its not that easy to just simply land on water .... Also many people cant swim so they would have probably drowned anyways then. They tried their best to land the plane and it didnt work i feel bad for the families :(
To add to that they should have also have known that there was wall barrier at the end of the runway and that there was a chance of the plane skidding to hit that wall which makes survival chances even worse
Birds are pretty much everywhere, having some nearby areas declared bird sanctuaries just means there's certain legal and environmental laws that aim to protect them from things like further development. Doesn't necessarily make it more dangerous than some random city airport surrounded by pigeons and seagulls.
Unimagenable how many people in the comments don't use their brain.... Every pilot (no matter if they're flying a private jet, prop plane, or big airliners) is trained to execute emergency protocolls. In such a Situation there's no time to think. Rip to all deceased and their families!
you can't seriously watch this and think "I'm sure they were trained enough", cmon. Clearly there were many issues happening that led to this, and it's very reasonable to presume that some of them will require modified or additional training to address in the future. But accepting the status quo would be insane after this
So they said that concrete wall has been there for years to guide the pilots. But professionals are saying no concrete should ever be there in the first place. The whole things is crazy and sad to hear.
Yes but the pilot also landed halfway down the runway so it’s a 50/50 incident. It should be a metal barrier but the pilot should have atleast landed a bit sooner
Pre-landing video footage shows that one engine had already been blown out by the birdstrike and was out of control, and messages from passengers shortly before the crash confirm this. It is possible that this explosion could have caused a number of problems. It could have paralyzed the hydraulics, causing the landing gear to guide and speed control to be difficult.
@@Q_zr1 The captain made a hasty decision to land the plane because the toxic fumes were spreading in the cabin, and if you watch the video of the landing, you can see how quickly the situation changed inside the plane as it landed in the opposite direction. The situation was deteriorating so quickly that there was not enough time to dump the oil and manually operate the landing gear.
Its a dirt mound the localizers were built on that the plane hit. No better than trying to fly a plane through a mountain. Regardless, a very dumb idea.

They touched down late to slow down. They would have been better off landing next to the runway, risking a tumble tha hitting a barrier...
The sudden stop is what likely did the most harm
It's crazy to think that some of the stuff you see flying in the air upon impact are people
In slow mode you see this clearly. I pray for their souls
That was 10000% terrorism. No pilot is trained to land with gear down on runway like what was done
It was very tragic, RIP for all people who passed away. My deepest condolences for all bereaved families.
The video starts with the plane about 3/4 down the runway. The plane came in way too fast and didn't touch down until way too far down the runway.
65% chance that they touched down earlier than the video
It's a horrible tragedy 😢 pray that all the victims rest in peace & their families be given strength 🙏🏻🙏🏻
A pertinent question would be why was there a solid brick wall in the middle of a runway?
I watched the video over and over again. It is remarkable to see that no major damages were made to the aircraft during the the amazing successful emergency belly landing (no landing gears) with very balanced wings, except some smoke caused by the friction of the plane's belly to the runway. I am shocked, however, to see the wall / structure at the end of the runway. What is it there for? The aircraft would have survived beautifully with minimal or no loss of life if the structure was not there.
same here too. Imagine if that runway was much longer allowing more room to recover from. I do think these runways needs to be a mile longer now to allow recovery because that plane could have easily survived with a longer runway or more room for recovery.
@@kouroshcyrus7596 Not really. Better if they'd had time to foam the runway, but a good belly landing usually only tears up the under side & engines. The wall was a jet blast wall to protect whatever is on the other side from engine blast when the runway is used for take offs in the other direction (most runways have 2 numeral and letter designators, 1 set for use in each direction) because take off & landing should be done as near straight into an headwind as possible.). Some things don't tolerate jet blasts well. That the wall was there this time was an unfortunate tragedy.
The structure you're looking at is called a Localizer, and it is a critical piece of equipment for aircraft to land in low visibility situations or at night. That said, whoever decided to mount the localizer on a concrete pad on top of an earthen berm is a monumental idiot. Airports in Europe or the US require their localizers to be mounted flush with the runway and with a breakaway bolt system so that in the event of a collision or runway overrun similar to what happened here, the localizer antennas merely give way to the aircraft on the ground, and not act like a solid obstacle that guarantees a fatal impact.
I thought so too at first. But with that speed they had sliding down the runway, it would probably break into pieces anyway, but with the chance of more people surviving the crash
@@johnl1091 There's a LOT of "monumental idiocy" between urban planning & airports! I learned that by the time I hit HS, having literally grown up watching it happen at Idlewild (now JFK), from when it's 2 quonset hits, 1 hangar, a few taxiways & a runway or 2 in the midst of a swamp when it opened in July of '48, through its transition to jets & JFK w/ whole housing developments right on the other side of runway fences!
After the lading runway there MUST be a clear flat and not obstructed free space in case of such emergency landings and building a concrete wall close to the end of the landing runway is totally insane and absurd .
I thought the same thing, imagine after the runway ended there's just a flat sand surface pretty sure that flight still in one piece, what a loss 😢
The plane went to fast and there was a hydrolic failure which is commanded by other areas but here they went at the same time.
The plane already landed suppose in a long landway since thats the landing area is about 4k. But the hydrolics was mixed up by the gravity as while the plane was too fast.
The paved runway length is 3050m but the concrete wall is located just 190m and 204m after the pavement end.
That’s why I m still not sure if it’s real
Imagine if there's no wall at the end of the runway
I mean, it would still overrun the runway. But a lot less people would die.
It was actually the start of the runway, they landed in the opposite direction.
@@CharGC123Not quite right. Runway is like stick, got two ends.
@@CharGC123 most runways are designed to be used in either direction. Aircraft always want to take off and land into the wind whenever possible. That's why airports will typically have two perpendicular runways, space allowing, so that the most favorable one can be used at any given time. I doubt there was any good reason to design the runway with a massive wall at the end.
Why would the landing gear fail after a bird strike? Landing gears are very robust and over engineered.
But then again, it's a Boeing plane.
because landing gear fail even without bird strike.... this is a culmination of bad decisions and maintenance.
still remembering the MCAS function from boeing max version that happened on crashed lion air
this is my theory: MAYBE the government use this to take attention away from the political turmoil happening in South Korea. (just my theory)
Means the wind speed came at a full force and the pilot would likely need some time while circling off the runway before a full stop.
I read that they are calling it "...the worst air disaster in the country's history." I'm thinking that Flight 007 in '83 was worse with 269 lives lost
That was 10000% terrorism. No pilot is trained to land with gear down on runway like what was done
@@MikaPirate-e5edidn't u read the news. The landing gear didn't open because a bird got stuck in it.
My deepest condolences for the families who lost their loved ones 😢. Love from SriLanka.
The guy recording…. You can hear how terrified he is by his breathing… so scary and incredibly sad
whoever did record this, sir, you're unbelievable because you didnt flinch nor scream wth 😮
This is the longest video I've seen, if you listen closely after the jet hits the berm you can hear one main engine and what might be the APU winding down. That would be significant info if APU was running.
"WORLDSTAR!!!"
May their soul rest in peace 😢😢😭
I'm a Korean middle school student, and while I was resting on the weekend, I suddenly heard on the news that Jeju Air Flight 2216 had an accident, and I was depressed all day.
❤😢 sorry
@syrax2424There's no need for you to be sorry...
It's very strange how someone could film such an event so calmly and steadily without letting out so much as a gasp of horror at the end.
They where supposed to land other way but they failed so they made panic go around move and ended up like this.
Rip to everyone onboard and their family
Oh. My. God. That was so difficult to watch without shedding a tear and shaking.
May they rest in eternal peace. May their families find support, love, and comfort somehow, though it seems unattainable right now.
This was definitely a pilot error in terms of handling an emergency situation. R.I.P. To All Who Perished.
Sure there was pilote error but mechanical failure is a part of it.
This guy must be a Boeing troll.
As a bomber pilot, I have to agree. Losing 1 engine is not a difficult emergency. Especially for something as simple as an airliner. Speculation is that they ran the checklist in a rush and shut off their remaining engine by mistake. Loss of a single engine should always be handled slowly and with a calm head. You should have hours to troubleshoot and have no difficulty with maintaining aircraft control.
Thats what ive been saying.. its a dang pilot error.. the two flight crew is abit suspicious theyve survive and they went furthest back of the plane.. seems like they know what theyre doing.. few flight crew doesnt survive but this 2 who survived arent lucky i find it fishy
@sollyxdoomyx7905 What's hard to understand? They were furthest to the back and facing backwards. They were in the best position to survive the impacf.
I was stationed there in the Army 50 years ago. They have certainly improved the airport. What a tragedy.
someone pls explain to me why the hell there is a brick wall at the end of the runway??
imagine seeing this irl, it would be so surreal to see. R.I.P.
I wonder why there was an embankment or wall at the end of the runway for any aircraft to hit in such an emergency accident like this. Extra extended flat land is usually a mandatory feature at airports.
Read from some news the wall is at the start of runway and that the plan landed from opposite direction. Then again, makes no sense to have a wall at beginning of a runway but read that the airport store some items there - really stupid design.
@@evonlee190 There is a concrete wall at both ends actually, to the idiots who keep shouting that they landed in the "wrong" direction (as if there is such a thing).
Having a wall at the end of the air strip is diabolical!
I really hate idiots who placed that wall at the end of the runway...
What kind of wall is that? A plane with high speed still causing explosion when it hits them
that 2 survivors must’ve been so lucky
9 seconds and distance about 1300 meters meaning - 144 meters per second - means 533km per hour... Thats why they can not stop on runway. Something was happened with avionics, with flaps, with electrical system. That speed 533km/h means that crew did not use configuration for landing.... why? We do not know.
Approx. speed close/or near impact per Juan Brown's channel = 150mph+/-. Review please.
That's not 533km per hour bro
@@eppsislike The runway at Muan International Airport is 2,800 meters (9,186 feet) long, but it looks like much less of it was covered by the skidding B737. The speed certainly was a lot less than the 544 Km/sec. as claimed above, and was probably closer to the 200 Knots as noted in other comments. Without flaps the aircraft had to make a high speed landing or it would have stalled, and that nose-up attitude or alternative high sink rate do not appear in the bit of video being shown.
@@eppsislike can compute? If can not - stop answering!
@@Macrocompassion 544km/s????
Faster than sound?
Read more carefully what i wrote. about 144m per seconds means about 533 km per HOUR!
May all the souls rest in peace 🕊️🕊️
I can't get used to this current world where the great tragedies are captured in the foreground in such a crude way, on all the television channels and networks. Before, it was very difficult to see something so traumatic in a mass medium. I can imagine how cruel it is. It will be for the families of the victims to see this 😢
Rest In Peace everyone who died 😭 what a sad way to end 2024 I was in South Korea waiting to fly back to Australia but this wasn’t Incheon airport which is another airport in South Korea and I was at Incheon but then my heart broke when I heard the news of Jeju air crashing and I was flying Asiana Airlines to Australia so I was a bit scared which is not normal for me
I’m in Australia now 🇦🇺
Who the hell put a barrier at the end of the runway???
Wasn’t me
I hate how many times I have to say this to people like you, but they came in the wrong way!
@@stormking99 Then stop saying it because you're misleading people. There was no "wrong way" in this situation, planes routinely take off and land from either direction (like with almost every major airport in the world) depending on which is safest or most efficient with the wind conditions. In this case there were no winds and it didn't matter which direction they landed, they just needed to go down in an emergency wherever it was convenient. Even in the other direction there's a wall and earthen mound at the same distance that would have produced just as bad an outcome.
@Roger__Wilco The barrier was at the start of the runway, and they came in the other way. Do you not understand
@@stormking99 Why are you even commenting about this when you clearly don’t even have the slightest clue how runways work?!
It doesn’t seem to slow down at all so awful, RIP to all the victims
My question is why the landing gear wasn't down and locked. Even if it was a bird strike, and they lost power and hydraulics, the landing gear system has a manual override that will do a gravity release of the doors and gear. You couldn't then re lift the gear but it's certainly better than an over speed belly landing. Additionally with a manual gravity drop, the gear would also have reduced the speed via drag and this outcome could have been very different.
Finally a outlet that thinks we can handle an explosion
It was going so fast, that I think the pilots were attempting to abort the landing and take off again. That didn't seem to work without the rear wheels acting as a pivot point.
Not only did they not have any wheels... they also couldn't take off.
*_Obviously they tried to get on the air again and applied full power only to hit that wall_*
The crazy thing is everyone is praying(which is good)but just in a eye or a fire you can’t imagine the feeling for those poor people that died instantly while we just look at it it’s really devastating. Also to the families knowing there kids or loved ones burned
from the looks of it, even under normal plane functionality, they wouldn't be able to stop and would've crashed. with landing gear and flap and everything working fine, still they would've crashed. it is simply not possible to slow down a plane at such a short amount of time.
My heart breaks for everyone in this tragedy. I pray those on board had peace and those they left behind have comfort. ❤️🙏
So jal collided with a plane at the beginning of this year and jeju air collided with a concrete wall, what a terrible year for aviation
Nope
I have never seen this type of accident like this, Strength to the victims 🙏
This is the full length video, but the beginning is blurred for text. Apparently the plane touched down right after video started, which means he has less than 900mtrs of runway to work with.
Landing gear malfunction? This is unbelievable to watch 😢
Speed was higher than I imagined, I wondered if breaking all the window glasses and opening the emergency door would absorb enough wind drag. Man. Rest in Peace.
I wonder, if the pilot decided to land at the sea, does the chance of surviving will be higher
Without the ability to brake, i dont think it make much sense to land at sea where at that speed touching the sea would be an instant nose dive, not a pilot tho, just my logic
@@feverdream9181Plus there wasn't any major places of water near them
absolutely impossible bro, it's not captain Sully's plane💀
@@stormking99 Just saying - looking at the map around Muan International Airport, theres seas near them, just unsure if it works too.
water landings have highest death rate so even if he decided to land there and somehow didnt die , he would lose pilot licence since he could land on airport. Sully landed on water since he wouldnt make into airport but this pilot landed but because of failure/ bad training it was disaster. but i guess we cant make judgments until we get black box recordings
There are already two airplanes boing 737-800 of Jeju Air involve in the same landing gear incident, so the goverment have to review the maintenance program of that Airline.
Sounded like the engines never slowed
Why the hell would they put a wall there though
The wall there is localizer equipment that sits at the 'starting point' of a landing runway. This aircraft landed from the opposite direction(probably due to acute circumstances) of where it should have come, which explains why the wall was at the 'end' of the runway, not the starting point. Had it landed from the proper direction, things could have been different.
No, you don't put barriers at the end of the runway. ILS antenna is just bunch of metal tubes not a mound of earth.
@@BobHill-s2c I know. But in this case, the localizers were 'on' the wall. Mystery.
That wall is the trouble maker
I can not believe that this wall exist(ed).
As far as I know, we can land on a runway from both directions depending on the wind, so that explanation is just weird... unless this is a weird place where the wind direction quadrant is always the same. There should never be a concrete wall there. There is no fixed "end" or "starting point" in a runway. Since when the wind is forced to always blow from the same direction? You have to land against the predominant wind, unless it is so weak it fits the minimums to land with a tail wind. Is this Lukla Airport or something? Any terrain obstacle to force it to land always in the same direction? I don´t think so.
Wow, it was painful and made me cry but I prefer to see things for myself rather than others choosing to make decisions for me.
Jeju Air flight 2216 crashed on December 29, 2024 at Muan International Airport, South Korea. The Boeing 737-800 aircraft was carrying 181 people, consisting of 175 passengers and 6 cabin crew.
According to initial reports, the accident was suspected to have been caused by the failure of the front landing gear which did not work when approaching the runway. This caused the plane to skid and hit a concrete wall at the airport, then caught fire.
Before landing, the control tower had given a warning about birds around the airport area and suggested changing the runway. However, one minute later, the pilot sent a distress call and attempted an emergency landing which unfortunately failed.
The death toll in this incident was reported to vary between 29 and 179 people, with only two people being rescued.
Boeing does it again😡
If I’m not wrong, it’s almost certain that the death toll is 179 people… With the two survivors being a male and female attendant pulled from the tail end of the wreckage…
@@TripleAAA787 I'm glad you have concluded your thorough investigation.
It looks like main landing gear isn't extended either though
That was 10000% terrorism. No pilot is trained to land with gear down on runway like what was done
It’s really sad. RIP to all who died in that crash. You can see how a passenger got thrown out off the plane at 0:19 that’s horrific.
You can literally see two passengers flying to the top right of the screen with their legs and arms flailing. It is horrific and sad. Rest in peace to all.
I can see 5 people in 0.25 speed, it's horrifying. RIP for the victims 😢🙏
this is heartbreaking to watch thinking that there are people inside that plane....
Who the heck thought it was a good idea to have a wall there?
Praying for the those who lost their loved ones in the crash. So very sad.
You can actually see bodies go flying to the right when the plane defragments. Unbelievable. The absolute worst crash I’ve ever seen. Horrible.
what ?? omg..
No you can't
@@wirawansaputraimade4419 agreed.
Those are framgments of the plane
Didn't see any body flying in the air
is there a reason they keep a death wall at the end of the runway?
If you watch the video at playback speed of 0.25, after the plane crashed into the wall and exploded, debris and bodies were hurled and strewn out of the craft. It’s horrifying to watch. 😢
at 200 knot something and suddenly become stationary.... its very terrifying.
Very sad day at the end of the year. RIP all those 179 pax onboard JEJU Air.
My deepest condolences.
A former Boeing employee and whistle blower John Barnet known for raising concerns about the firm's production standards has been found dead in the US.
He said in some cases, sub-standard parts had even been removed from scrap bins and fitted to planes that were being built .
Plane bodies made by Boeing's largest supplier regularly left the factory with serious defects, according to a former quality inspector at the firm.
He was accustomed to finding "anywhere from 50 to 100, 200" defects on fuselages - the main body of the plane
the cameraman reacts as if it had been an unmanned test flight
You can clearly hear the cameraman breathing at the very end of the video like he is holding himself very hard to capture this crucial moment that might be important for the investigation, pretty sure he will have a hard time to sleep after that incident
Then I´m grateful you´re not the cameraman. It´s what TetragrammatonAD posted. Some people have to be professional at this and the heavy breathing of this cameraman says it all...
When I saw this footage for the first time, I literally went speechless for a good 10 secs, in shock. He might have had the same reaction as I did.
The New York Post shows more of the footage post crash and you can hear from their breathing and murmuring that they've not taken it well. People react differently when exposed to shock but doesn't mean they're not affected
You act like everyone is supposed to just start screaming and running
Listen little buddy that’s NOT how everyone operates
Lots and lots of armchair pilots/aviation mechanics in these comments sections who weren't there, but knows more about the situation and would have done differently to save the plane than the actual pilots.
I know nothing about aviation but I think it is fair to say something went tragically wrong, I do not like blame games but on this occasion something or someone needs to be held accountable.
you can clearly see that the nose is up effortlessly, and the plane is not slowing down at all. What most likely happened is that the thrust the pilot was applying to stop the aircraft was actually working in the forward direction. He was better off cutting off both engines after belly landing. He went into that Burm at full speed.
Who put a wall there??? Who who??!!! 🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️
Why wasn't the cameraman surprised by this incident? He looked very calm as if he knew it would happen
Because he was most likely in shock.
Why is there reinforced concrete being used for the localizer ? tbh, there is no reason for a reinforced concrete wall, its a flat ground and if height was needed, then a simple metal localizer antenna support should be sufficed. Design problem?
All these things are just extensions of the mishap. The real culprit is the Boeing 737-800 plane and this is not the first mishap.
Just realized that, now wondered about that too.
I checked on google street map, this airfield has concrete wall all around it, including both end of the runway. And it seem located pretty close to the end of the runway tarmac (190m at the north end, and 205m at the south end). Even more weird, theres still huge empty land (only some roads) after both of the concrete wall.
I'm not aviation expert, but usually i just see metal wire fence / chain link fence at the end of runways in my country, but never concrete wall.
Even if there had not been a concrete wall, the speed and friction that the airplane was generating would have been enough to cause an explosion before it fully lost speed.
The root cause was obviously a mishap that occurred on the fuselage, which was not stable enough to withstand a bird strike during landing
@@mlwee6796bruh it’s an 800 not a Max, they’ve been around since the late 90s and very successful. This has got to be a maintenance/hydraulics issue, no flaps, no gear.
@@raykim9760 Wrong, without the concrete wall, the number of deaths would be way lesser. And for your second sentence, you have no idea what youre talking about.
now check for anyone who couldnt get on board
If it is known that the landing gear was about to be deployed but malfunctioned, why didn't the pilot decide to land in the water rather than on an airport runway where there is a risk of not being able to stop on the limited runway length and there is a high risk of fire???
Its not that easy to just simply land on water ....
Also many people cant swim so they would have probably drowned anyways then. They tried their best to land the plane and it didnt work i feel bad for the families :(
You are right
To add to that they should have also have known that there was wall barrier at the end of the runway and that there was a chance of the plane skidding to hit that wall which makes survival chances even worse
@@Ramon_92have you ever been on a plane ? They always talk about life jackets
@Markus56 . Won't airoplane sink down if they landed in water?
Why would you place an airport in a known bird sanctuary?
Birds are pretty much everywhere, having some nearby areas declared bird sanctuaries just means there's certain legal and environmental laws that aim to protect them from things like further development. Doesn't necessarily make it more dangerous than some random city airport surrounded by pigeons and seagulls.
Unimagenable how many people in the comments don't use their brain.... Every pilot (no matter if they're flying a private jet, prop plane, or big airliners) is trained to execute emergency protocolls. In such a Situation there's no time to think. Rip to all deceased and their families!
Agree. In Korea press, there was some malfuntioning of plane.
Landing gear malfunctioning
you can't seriously watch this and think "I'm sure they were trained enough", cmon. Clearly there were many issues happening that led to this, and it's very reasonable to presume that some of them will require modified or additional training to address in the future. But accepting the status quo would be insane after this
Those innocent souls ❤❤ máy God always bless you..
who the f builds a giant wall at the end of the runway. that wall caused this accident
So they said that concrete wall has been there for years to guide the pilots. But professionals are saying no concrete should ever be there in the first place. The whole things is crazy and sad to hear.
Yes but the pilot also landed halfway down the runway so it’s a 50/50 incident. It should be a metal barrier but the pilot should have atleast landed a bit sooner
@@Shayana-x1l it’s still crazy how things happened 😔
Why there is a wall at the end of the runway?
@@battennagasaki it’s the front end
Pre-landing video footage shows that one engine had already been blown out by the birdstrike and was out of control, and messages from passengers shortly before the crash confirm this. It is possible that this explosion could have caused a number of problems. It could have paralyzed the hydraulics, causing the landing gear to guide and speed control to be difficult.
But the landing gear can be lowered manually right??
@@Q_zr1 The captain made a hasty decision to land the plane because the toxic fumes were spreading in the cabin, and if you watch the video of the landing, you can see how quickly the situation changed inside the plane as it landed in the opposite direction. The situation was deteriorating so quickly that there was not enough time to dump the oil and manually operate the landing gear.
Horrific. Condolence to all 🙏
@Polar_bear1974 lack of training and horrific decision making killed everyone on that flight not birds.

Its a dirt mound the localizers were built on that the plane hit. No better than trying to fly a plane through a mountain. Regardless, a very dumb idea.
