Chilling final moments of passengers who streamed Nepal plane crash on Facebook

This is the chilling moment a plane crash in Nepal was streamed live on Facebook by one of the passengers who was later discovered dead among the wreckage. Only minutes before the Yeti Airlines aircraft crashed in Pokhara in Nepal, four passengers from Ghazipur in Uttar Pradesh in India went live on Facebook to share their experience of the flight.

The men were making the short trip to Pokhara in January after spending a week-long paragliding trip in Nepal, the Mirror reports. In the disturbing footage filmed by Sonu Jaiswal, 29 one of them can be heard saying 'have a look at the water body, it's beautiful' as the plane approached Pokhara airport while another says: "It's a lot of fun!"

Shortly after, the clip shows the aircraft making a sharp left turn before it fatally crashes into a gorge and explodes into flames. For the next 41 seconds of the clip, the phone camera captures glimpses of raging flames which is followed by screaming.
