Go to You-tube or any of the other video sites and you can find a great variety of plane crash video. It seems every accident (and there have been quite a few in the last several months) has someone who comes away with a plane crash landing video. While there seems to be great entertainment value in these videos, they may also prove to be beneficial to those investigating the crash landings. Depending on how far in advance the videographer shot, a wealth of information can be held on that video. As far as the entertainment, people seem to enjoy watching them regardless of the outcome. The Hudson River crash landing drew a huge audience even though everyone survived. Plane crash landing video may still be in its infancy, but it is making reporters out of every day citizens. A plane crash landing video gives one an opportunity to scoop the local news. That's a chance you don't get every day.
