China Airline Jet Exploded Into Fireball In Okinawa Japan

A Taiwanese China Airlines jet exploded into flames at an airport in Okinawa, Japan after arriving from Taiwan Monday, August 20 but all 165 people aboard escaped alive. The 157 passengers including two small children fled the Boeing 737-800 unhurt on inflated emergency slides just minutes before the plane burst into a fireball.
The aircraft skidded on the tarmac on its way from the runway to the gate after landing, starting a fire that prompted the emergency exit. The fire started when the left engine exploded, a minute after the aircraft entered the parking spot.
This is the video of a squad of firefighters dousing the empty plane with extinguishers as flames and clouds of black smoke billowed from the fuselage. The fire was put out about an hour later, leaving the aircraft charred and mangled.
