All the 300 passengers of the Emirates flight which caught fire on landing at Dubai airport had a miraculous escape. Video clips circulated on social media showed thick black smoke billowing from the centre of the plane, which was on ground. Its fuselage appeared to be lying on the runway with escape slides opened. In another video taken in the plane itself, "Laptop, laptop," a passenger can be heard saying; the amateur video shows others reaching for their luggage, ignoring the crisis conditions. Passengers ignoring warnings by the crew to leave the luggage and move to safety is just shocking. A video uploaded on social media reflects the chaos as the plane's crew shouted at passengers to use the emergency chutes to flee. Moments later, the plane would be wrecked by explosions and then a fire in which a local firefighter was killed. Most of the passengers were from Kerala. "Chute, chute, chute," a woman flight attendant shouts. "Jump the slide, jump the slide," she urges asking passengers to forget their bags.
