Dramatic video footage has emerged showing the inside of a seaplane full of American tourists just before it crashed in the Bahamas. The small Cessna 208B seaplane was attempting to take off on Saturday morning when it ran into boat traffic at the Caribbean island. The pilot then turned to look for a safe route out when the plane started pulling left while taxing. Despite the pilot’s attempts to correct course, the seaplane ended up slamming into a dock. Another video showed the Cessna plane on its side with one wing in the water, before eventually sinking. None of the eight tourists on board or its two crew members were injured in the incident near a resort in North Bimini. “All of a sudden the dock started getting closer and closer, and one of the people in the plane behind me said, ‘Where are you going?’ And then it just was ‘boom,’ and it hit,” passenger Jeanne O’Brien told ABC News’ Good Morning America. Tropic Ocean Airways, the operator of the Cessna seaplane, confirmed it is cooperating with authorities after the “mishap” on the water.
