Two pilots and one passenger miraculously survive a midair plane collision in the United States, despite one plane being nearly ripped in half during the crash.

The pilot of an airplane that collided with another midair near the US city of Denver requested an emergency landing for engine failure, not knowing that his plane was nearly ripped in half, according to air traffic control audio.The planes were getting ready to land at a small regional airport in Denver when they collided

The second plane, a single-engine 2016 Cirrus SR22, was rented by Independence Aviation, the company said in a statement. NTSB said it will publish a preliminary report in the next two weeks, but it expects the entire investigation to take 12 to 18 months. "When I realised that the small plane was going down I ran toward it. The pilot and his passenger were up and about," Ms Cvelbar said.

Just when you thought it was safe to go into the water …Stunning pictures show a gargantuan bull shark exposing its rows of razor-sharp teeth in a terrifyingly close encounter with a diver off the coast of Florida, USA. I’d pay good money to see a few shark fin soup harvesters (with no weapons) getting in the water with that shark! 🤣🤣🤣🤣 If a shark could walk the beach it would run screaming 'shit, humans!'. We are the apex predator not them. Nightmares? My nightmare is that these creatures are not far off extinction. The ocean is their lunchbox. One does not go on safari & expect a lion to mind their manners. What an amazing experience and he’s lucky 🍀 she had no interest in eating him
