Survivor of Air India Plane Crash Draws Attention to Other Sole Survivors

  • The survivor suffered serious injuries but has a chance of recovery.
  • Social media is actively discussing the case, calling it a miracle.
  • Sole survivors in plane crashes are a rare phenomenon with a history of such cases.

This is reported by The Independent, The Yomiuri Shimbun.

Survivor of Air India Plane Crash

In recent days, reports have emerged that one passenger miraculously survived the Air India crash that claimed the lives of 241 people. This case has sparked significant interest on social media.

Vishwash Kumar Ramesh, a British citizen, was found outside the aircraft. According to Dr. Dhaval Gameti, who treated Ramesh, he was disoriented and suffered multiple injuries, but is expected to recover.

Social media is buzzing with discussions about this case, with many users describing it as "incredible," "remarkable," and even a "miracle."

Sole survivors in plane crashes are rare, but such cases have occurred before. For instance, in 1987, Cecilia Crocker, then known as Cecilia Chihan, survived the crash of Northwest Airlines Flight 255 in Romulus, Michigan, where 154 people lost their lives, including her parents and brother.

The plane, which was headed to Phoenix, lost control during takeoff, struck a light pole, and destroyed the roof of a building. The U.S. National Transportation Safety Board found that the crew did not properly configure the wing for takeoff.

Cecilia mentioned in a 2013 documentary that she thinks about the crash every day and bears scars on her body. She also got a tattoo on her wrist as a reminder of her experience.

Several other individuals have also become "sole survivors" in crashes. George Lamson Jr., a 17-year-old from Minnesota, survived the Galaxy Airlines crash in 1985. He expressed his thoughts on social media, noting that the news about the crash in India with one survivor shocked him.

Additionally, 12-year-old Bahia Bakari survived the Yemenia Airways crash in 2009, while Jim Polehinke was the only survivor of the Comair crash in 2006.
