you weren't badly hurt at all, were you? >> no. i feel fine. i just have a few sores along the side of my leg and right here on my hand. i feel just great. >> very few people have ever survived a plane crash, george. maybe you could tell us how it went. >> well, we took off and everything seemed okay and we were fine. then all of a sudden we hit some turbulence. we started falling down from the sky. and the pilot told us we were going to crash. and we crashed. >> the pilot told you? what exactly did he say? >> he says, we're going down. >> going down. and how much time do you think you had between hearing that and actual impact? >> it was about two seconds at the very most. >> what did you do in those two seconds? any thoughts of trying to save your life? >> yes. i covered up my body as much as possible. i lifted my legs up and hoped for the best. >> considering the impact of the crash and what the crash site looks like, the fact that he's in the condition that he is in really is a miracle.
