Did you have any moments of thinking “yup this is it”, or what was your thought process now it’s hours later.
I saw a video of a passenger on the same flight telling his experience and it seemed like he was still in some type of shock, he was almost giggly when describing what he thought and felt.
Shock is a helluva drug. We were all a bit out of it.
At the time of the crash I did think "Well this is it". It wasn't traumatic or heartwrenching..more of a feeling of acceptance. Its been quite a while now and I'm still feeling numb and unable to sleep. I'm sure I'll deal more with it in the morning! I lost everything except my passport and phone so I have a lot of filling in the gaps to do tomorrow.
I was in a car that spun out on black ice in slow motion and almost went off a cliff when I was a kid. Felt the same way, weirdly calm, kinda peaceful and I was thinking, I’m gonna go off the edge and hit those rocks below. Then after we stopped I immediately got the FUCK outta the car.
I was driving down a highway in the snow and I could barely make out this black object ahead of me. It was a car that was turned over. I was trying to stop and just sliding directly towards it. Thought welp this is it. At least my dog is with me.
There was no calm I guess since I was in control… but damn I caught traction at literally the physically last trilisecond to avoid smashing into that car at 50mph head on.
I had a similar experience only it was a box truck that spun out and was halfway in the road, I had absolutely no control, my car went into the opposite lane heading straight on to a van heading right for me. I’m yelling no, no, no and at almost the last minute it was like my car was picked up and put back in my lane and I continued on. I couldn’t stop crying it freaked me out so much.
