What makes this so freaky to me personally is that I've taken that Garuda flight (jakarta-yogyakarta) countless times on business. Brr.

Oh, that's just terrible. I saw a man on Oprah recently that had been in a similar kind of accident, and the scene he described was heartbreaking.

Prayers for lots of survivors that can manage somehow to escape serious injuries!
