Hollywood actor, Harrison Ford according to a report on Mailonline, is involved in a plane crash when his airplane crash-landed on a Venice, California golf course yesterday, Thursday afternoon. Moments before the crash, in audio of his conversation with air traffic control, an unemotional Ford can be heard asking for an emergency landing because his engine had failed.
The 72-year-old actor who has been a licensed pilot for nearly two decades, wasn't going to be able to make the runaway at Santa Monica Airport so he picked a long green at the nearby Penmar golf course to land out of the way of the congested neighbourhood.
While Ford was rushed from the scene bleeding heavily from a head wound, his injuries were described only as 'moderate' and he is expected to make a full recovery.
'At the hospital. Dad is ok. Battered, but ok! He is every bit the man you would think he is. He is an incredibly strong man,' his son Ben Ford tweeted just two hours after the crash. 'Thank you all for your thoughts and good vibes for my dad.'
The fact that Ford escaped the crash with just a few injuries is not surprising to those who have flown with him.
