SQ321 passenger recounts what happened when extreme turbulence hit 

Are the flight attendants also trained in this type of situation? I'm sure they also deserve some credit!

@@Jasmine215100cabin crew had no job other than seating and announcing

@@sj7273but still they have to front the passenger and keep them in order. If not how the pilot operates when the back is not cooperating?

@@TheKyuwook pax doesn’t run around though in case of emergency.

@@sj7273 in case of emergency, everyone will be running for their life. They won’t know what’s the drill and how where and how should they move. You shouldn’t remove the credit of crew.

Very much agree.

Especially with the crazy weather increasing all over the world.

@@amberstreetfilms you said the right part...this increasing bad weather will make these air turbulence worst and worst..

i wonder if most the flight attendants were injured considering they most likely werent wearing seat belts

until the final report come in I think cannot jump to conclusions that SIA is not to blame

​@@adeveloper6653Yea blame Sia for the turbulence. Right

It's hard to keep your seatbelt fastened...

@@enzotan2730 It may not be turbulence, could be pilot error, until the final report comes in we will not definitively know

Pilot error how?​@@adeveloper6653

That's what they r supposed to do. They are trained to handle any kind of emergencies

Singapore Airlines is the nicest airline I ever flown on. If it can happen to them, it can happen to anyone.

Yeah he's a lot better than some of the CNA newscasters

You think so? I doubt.

why got ang moh slang?

@@efgerfgergferg6749Student doing degree in the UK.

@@efgerfgergferg6749 obvious that he was raised or studied overseas. Not everyone grew up in singapore or is singaporean

Why don't you thank the pilots who ACTUALLY managed to bring the rest of the passengers to safety?

idt it was possible without gods help as well. @@MintyMine9297

The plane survived? You mean passengers?

Thank non existent man but not thank paramedics, pilots & airport staff. Gotcha

The passenger died not because of the turbulence directly but from a heart attack.

The pilots r idiots. Who flies right into a storm..?

@@FireFoxGaming56I get the impression that you have been rejected as a pilot with all your accusations. A terrible accident has happened and an enquiry/investigation is being done. Be a better person.

@@FireFoxGaming56 pilot reject 😂

@@jt895 life reject 😂

I'm a bad flyer and I'm going on holiday soon this is going to make me worse 😳😩

If it was turbulence it would have no impact on landing as long as the plane didn’t take damage

@@sljk true tho-

If they cannot land the plane, they won't be called Pilots

They had their seatbelts on properly and therefor did bot slam their heads. So they were uninjured and could go on flying the plane

Same here!

Who can complain about free flights right? SQ staff tickets.

Wish the 7 in ICU could say the same. What's the point of free flights when you're breathing from a tube or paralyzed.

Don't be silly! Only those who can't afford SIA tickets will think that all SQ passengers are staff &/or staff family of SingaporeAir! 😝

@@user-um9re5vj8r can't imagine there are ardent supporters who are here to sing praises when there are more than 50 injured and 1 dead

broken English better then broken head 😂😂😂

Lols!! This is how the majority of Singaporean’s sound like. Educated and articulate. ❤❤❤🇸🇬🇸🇬🇸🇬🇸🇬🇸🇬

I prefer singlish, semula.

​@@theNouratheory No! this is not how majority of the Singaporean sounds. They are many who still don't use full sentences to communicate.

Look I’m a big fan of Singlish but in our schools and during presentation everyone be it Chinese, Malay, Indian or Others will ALL speak with excellent clarity. Or maybe it’s just in the schools that I went to and maybe in my social circle. I may be wrong in my generalisation but I feel that the majority of us will often be speaking excellent English in comparison to other Asian countries. IMHO.

I really doubt that you can ALWAYS PREVENT this type of weather phenomenon!!

@isangababay I hope we soon learn this heroic pilot's name, also hear his account of what happened at cockpit controls during the emergency. He must feel traumatized too, like the passengers who made it thanks to his professional skills.

Thank God 🙏

Thailand team is awesome as usual! Mad respect to them all ❤

Excellent spoken English !🎉

Exactly… they did her dirty ….

Precisely!! What's worse is those idiots flew up and crash onto some innocent people nearby, causing them injured. LOL

@@youcantseelim1751 What you don't realize is that on a long flight (like this one), ( What, 10 hours or so?) maybe you don't like wearing a tight seatbelt constantly! I know they also tell you to "Keep your seatbelts fastened."

@@Jasmine215100 Then loosen it, seatbelts really aren't uncomfortable, I barely notice it is even there. How can it bother someone so much, for their OWN safety? People are ignorant.

Can you keep them in for an 8 hour flight?

@@BenevoKids What if you're pregnant or morbidly obese? Is it comfortable then?

SQ will pay for them. Thailand healthcare is cheap than Singapore

Singapore Airlines bro. No expenses spared. Singapore Airlines will pay everything and more no worries

no worries SIA very rich

​@@AliphaticTrust SIA! NO worries.

It’s the pilots and the stewards responsibility to warn people during such turbulences and to give clear, precise safety directions to the passengers! It sounds as if these directions were not given, nor safety procedures followed!

​@@lenitaa7938it's sop for seat belt to be on at all times but ppl just dun learn to until things happen. Kudos to sia for landing safely. Truely the number 1 airline in the world

How do you avoid having to go to the toilet? Wear a diaper?

Don't eat or dtink one day before travelling.

@@lenitaa7938 - - - do you understand what is a sudden weather change phenomenon ? It happens so fast that even radars are unable to detect it's coming. Do you think that if the pilot and flight crew (in this incident) knew of the dangers they would be facing, they would choose to keep quiet and not warn the passengers even though they have sufficient time to do it ?

Maybe you should do some research before blaming the pilots & suggesting they're asleep. “We were about 30 miles off track flying around the thunderstorms" said the pilot & as for the airline: It has a robust safety record, consistently ranking among the world’s safest. The last fatal accident involving the carrier occurred in 2000. As for how this occured, its going to be a combination of rising hot air below the plane and colder, descending air mass above and when an aircraft is in flight, it’s essentially balancing on a column of air. If that air suddenly becomes less dense (as it does when it’s heated), the aircraft may experience a decrease in lift and start to descend/ sink. They're near the equator, hot air is rising. Additionally, if the aircraft encounters a pocket of cooler, denser air that is sinking (as might happen on the edge of an anticyclone), the increased density could indeed exert a downward force on the aircraft, causing it to descend more rapidly. Thus, both rising warm air (which is less dense) and sinking cool air (which is more dense) creates a “double whammy” effect on an aircraft where the air mass below provides less lift and the air mass above exerts atmospheric pressure downward. 6000 feet in mere minutes would be absolutely terrifying and nothing these pilots could do would stop that plane from rapidly descending.

that's for the experts (at NTSB) to investigate what exactly happened. Everything (flight data recorder and cockpit recorder) is intact. They should be able to find out why. It just takes time.

Very difficult, especially when they've sustained injuries themselves

@@balticbabe1 They have more experience up there so they need to double up

@@bobafett5757 What does that mean? On every flight over a certain number of hours, there are 3 pilots. Anything under 8 hours, and there are the standard two pilots

loosen might have chance to still be moved out of it.

@@adeveloper6653……garbage! You have it SLIGHTLY loosened, but still buckled. If so, it’s designed you can’t ‘come out if it’…………

@@adeveloper6653Loosen meaning adjusting where your waist still has breathing room like your car seatbelt

@@elizabethroberts6215 are u an aviation expert that knows if its loosened you won't come out at an extreme plunge of 6000 ft? I doubt that.

@@JojoplayAB Car seatbelts automatically tighten once you clip it.

Indeed…..that shows how sudden it was

➕️👍

Singapore Airlines 777-300ER got very good seats arrangement, their economy is 3-3-3 layout, that's why no others passengers dead except one old passenger believe is got heart issues. If greedy airlines with cramped seats 3-4-3 layout, the situation can be worse due cramped of passengers, even worst the plane may be crash due balanced issue that the pilot cannot take the control of the aircraft, especially mostly passengers don't wear seat belt, walk around, in toilet etc.

Opposite way

You can bath with Nutella😂

Your choice

Better dont leave your house or your room. Later got freak accident make you injured.

Clear-air turbulence is usually impossible to detect with the naked eye and very difficult to detect with a conventional radar, with the result that it is difficult for aircraft pilots to detect and avoid it.

They love to live life dangerously like Austin Power.

Staying at home has risks as well. Natural disaster or fire or unexpected accidents can occur. It is the definition of life. Life is full of risks.

I’m also from S’pore but I’m ashamed of your comment👎🏼🙁

Actually, his English is very good... for any English speaker.

I'm never a great fan of Singlish or Manglish. But this young man even though with his slight American lilt speaks English flawlessly. He described the situation flawlessly. His English is very good by Malaysian standards ...and his spoken is also far better than what the majority of Singaporeans are able to dish out!!!

What make you Singaporeans think that we Msians cann't speak gd English, its just insulting
