Watch: Horrifying video shows Indian passenger's Facebook live minutes before fatal Nepal plane crash
Of the 68 passengers and four crew members that were on board the aircraft, no survivors have been found yet
The horrific plane crash in Nepal that left dozens of people dead shook the world on Sunday — but today, a video clip that has surfaced on social media created a bigger shock.
Minutes before the tragic incident, Indian passenger Sonu Jaiswal went live on Facebook.
The disturbing video has the unaware passenger panning towards the window which shows the town of Pokhara below. The one-and-a-half minute clip shows the four passengers that were travelling together from Uttar Pradesh.
"Wah beta wah, mauj kar di (Wow, what great fun)", one of the four say, indicating how much they were enjoying the plane ride.
Towards the end of the video, a scuffle was caught as the camera moves and a loud crash is heard immediately followed by screams. The video then shows flames breaking out.
The twin-engine ATR 72 aircraft, operated by Nepal’s Yeti Airlines — which was flying from Kathmandu to Pokhara — crashed and erupted into flames.
Jaiswal was in Nepal with friends to visit a temple. "Sonu, along with his three friends, had gone to Nepal on January 10. His main purpose was to pay obeisance... as his wish to have a son - now six months old - has been fulfilled. But fate had something else in store for him," Vijay Jaiswal, a relative and head of his village, told news agency PTI.
Of the 68 passengers and four crew members that were on board the aircraft, no survivors have been found yet. It was carrying 15 foreign nationals, as well as four crew members, Nepal's Civil Aviation Authority said in a statement. The foreigners included five Indians, four Russians, two South Koreans, and one each from Ireland, Australia, Argentina and France.
