Heartstopping bodycam shows four people being pulled from crashed plane moments after it slammed onto Florida street
Dramatic bodycam footage shows the tense moments after a small plane carrying a family home from their vacation crashed into a Florida neighborhood.
The aircraft was carrying a family of four home from a trip to Turks and Caicos when it hurtled into a residential street in Pembrokes Pines last month.
A video camera captured the heartstopping moment the plane plunged into a tree at top speed before toppling onto the grass.
Neighbors rushed to their rescue first, crowding around the wreckage as sirens blared in the distance.
Pembrokes Pines officers then responded to the frantic scene, where one shirtless resident was urging the neighbors to flee the area in fear that the downed plane might explode.
One neighbor was spraying water from a garden hose on the smoking wreckage in a desperate attempt to extinguish the flames surrounding the aircraft, where the passengers remained.
The passengers – including two teenage girls – were finally plucked out of the destroyed aircraft.
Paramedics responded to the scene to aid the passengers, who all miraculously survived the crash with minor injuries.

Bodycam footage showed one of the plane’s occupants being placed on a gurney.
There could have been far more casualties had the plane not narrowly missed houses in the neighborhood.

Meanwhile, rescue workers tried to comfort a distressed girl who had been on board as she sat on a nearby yard.
Officials can be heard comforting the hysterical passenger, telling her to take ‘deep breaths’.
Another person can be seen with a bandage on their head while a man believed to be the pilot is given a neck brace and placed on a gurney.
Officers can be heard discussing the crash in the bodycam footage.
‘How lucky did that house get? How lucky is that house? Imagine if that would have fallen on the house? Crazy, right?’ one officer says. ‘They got so lucky it didn’t explode.’
The July 13 crash happened while the plane was attempting to lane at North Perry Airport, according to National Transportation Safety Board officials.
Surveillance footage showed the aircraft toppling down a mile short of the runway.

The plane narrowly missed houses as it slammed onto the street near Southwest 14th Street and 68th Boulevard.
NTSB and Federal Aviation Administration are investigating the crash, which has been a cause of concern for locals who are wondering why the plane missed the airport by a mile.
A town hall meeting to discuss the crash is set to take place on August 27.
The purpose of the meeting is to ‘review overall safety issues at the airport’ and it will be presented by District 7 Commissioner Alexandra P. Davis.
