On January 29, 2025, a shocking mid-air collision occurred near Reagan National Airport in Washington, D.C., when a helicopter crashed into an American Airlines jet. The plane, Flight 5342, was en route from Wichita, Kansas, and was carrying 60 passengers and four crew members. The collision triggered a massive explosion, and both aircraft fell into the Potomac River. Video footage shared by the Daily Mail on TikTok captured the dramatic moment, showing a flash of light followed by smoke as the wreckage plunged into the river. Netizens expressed disbelief and confusion, with some questioning how such a collision could happen, especially considering the role of air traffic controllers in preventing accidents. A pilot on TikTok shared their shock, noting that collisions are rare at night due to anti-collision lights. First responders continue searching the Potomac River for survivors.
