Ahmedabad crash: Survivor Vishwash Kumar Ramesh's escape captured
An Air India Boeing 787 crashed just after takeoff from Ahmedabad on June 12, 2025, with 265 people losing their lives. Incredibly, only one passenger—Vishwash Kumar Ramesh, a British citizen—made it out alive. He was sitting in seat 11A, right by an emergency exit, which likely played a part in his survival. Ramesh is now recovering in the hospital as investigators look into what caused the crash.
TL;DR
Ramesh's story and significance of the crash
It's rare for anyone to survive such a major plane crash, and Ramesh's story highlights how much things like seat location and safety features can matter—even when luck is involved. This was also the first fatal crash for the Boeing 787 Dreamliner model, making it a significant moment for aviation safety conversations.
