Passenger Describes Harrowing Experience In Toronto Plane Crash

Crews work around an upside down Delta Air Lines plane, which was heading from Minneapolis to Toronto when it crashed on the runway at Pearson International Airport, in Toronto, Monday, Feb. 17, 2025.

A passenger on board the flight that crashed in Toronto shared his harrowing experience as the plane turned upside down on the runway. The passenger, identified as John Nelson, described the moments leading up to the crash as seemingly normal, with no indication of any issues with the aircraft.

Nelson mentioned that he noticed gusty winds and heavy snow on the runway during the approach, but nothing out of the ordinary for a typical flight between Minneapolis/St. Paul and Toronto. However, upon impact, the plane hit the ground hard and veered sideways, causing panic among the passengers.
