Air India Flight 171 crashed shortly after takeoff, shocking the world with the news of its tragedy. Despite the expectation of fatalities, Vishwash Kumar Ramesh survived the horrific incident. Witnesses described him as bloodied and disoriented yet walking away from the crash site. Ramesh, who was on a business trip with his brother, had been seated by the window. Sadly, his brother did not survive. Ramesh's condition was serious but stable, prompting visits from family and India's Prime Minister Narendra Modi following the incident.
Aviation experts say it is nearly impossible to survive a fully-fuelled plane crash into a high-rise building. Yet, one British father remarkably walked away from the disaster.
Mr Ramesh video-called their father moments after the crash to say: I don't know how I'm alive.
