Toronto had a Delta flight flipped upside down. I got these photos from a friend on the plane. He’s okay. Minnesota to Toronto

How does a plane go belly up without breaking apart or bursting into flames? Hopeful that the passengers remain only with minor injuries and nothing worse!
"Shocking images from the scene show the plane upside down on the ice-covered runway.
Emergency crews surrounded the plane after the crash landing and sprayed it with foam, preventing a potential deadly fire.
Passengers were seen exiting the aircraft and stepping onto the icy runway.
All operations at the Toronto airport have been shut down after the crash landing."

I had no idea planes still were allowed to land when the runway is icy! Seeing a plane upside down and basically intact is wild. It held together pretty well considering. The cabin where passengers were seems to have held together and for that I am thankful. If all have survived as we have been told so far, then this is certainly a miracle.

Hopefully there is some security camera footage that captured the landing to see just how the accident happened. I would suspect the plane ran off the side of the runway and then the wing caught the ground which caused the wing to be torn off and the plane to flip onto it's top.
I think the icy conditions allowed the plane to slide along the ground rather than being torn apart, sparing the lives of all those on board.

The airport confirmed on X that an “incident” occurred with the Delta flight from Minneapolis and that all passengers and crew are accounted for. Video from the scene showed the plane upside down on the snowy tarmac as emergency workers hose it down.
“Emergency teams are responding,” the airport said in a post on the social platform X. “All passengers and crew are accounted for.”
Peel Regional Paramedic Services confirmed to CBS News that 15 patients had been transported to the hospital. Of those, two were transported via air ambulance. One patient was taken to a children's hospital. All injuries were said to be non-life threatening

Breaking News reporting here in Canada is currently stating at least 8 injured. Two critically injured - with one of them being a pediatric patient.
Will post a print-link when available. All on TV thus far.

I live in Toronto on the east side and it’s super windy today. Very gusty. Not snowing right now but blowing snow could be an issue.
