This pilot somehow narrowly managed to avoid a tail strike at the helm of a massive Airbus A350 in a scene that looks like it came straight from Top Gun.
The tail of the plane very nearly hit the runway, but the captain managed to avoid it by steering the plane clear of the tarmac, narrowly avoiding impact.
We can only imagine how close the pilot came to a heart attack from the sheer terror of that moment, but fortunately, it all went well in the end.
