Terrified passengers yelled and tried to get off a jet when it exploded into flames after a horrifying crash landing at Miami Airport.

According to reports, the landing gear on the aircraft broke while it was returning from the Dominican Republic to the Florida international transit hub, forcing the pilot to crash land the 100-passenger flight.

Firefighters can be seen spraying foam over the plane in video taken from outside the aircraft in a last-ditch effort to put out the flames.

The person filming turns to show the thick plumes of black smoke and flames rising from the back of the plane once he reaches the safety of the tarmac.

It appears like the landing gear malfunctioned, causing it to crash on its side. I’m informed everyone is safe.

All five of the US Marines on a military plane that crashed at the beginning of June perished.

Five individuals on board a military plane that crashed in the US are reportedly dead.

The collision happened close to Route 78 in the Imperial County region of California, United States.
