On the Greek island of Skiathos, an airplane flew at a record low altitude right over the heads of tourists. Video

Tourists on the Greek island of Skiathos witnessed an airplane flying over their heads at a record low altitude. Out of fear, many covered their heads and even crouched down, fearing that the pilot would hit people.

However, the landing was successful and none of the vacationers were injured. A video titled "The New Lowest Landing?" was posted on GreatFlyer's YouTube channel (scroll to the bottom of the page to see the video and photos).

The footage shows a Wizzair Airbus A321neo aircraft appearing on the horizon and rapidly approaching the shore, lowering its altitude. It flew over boats and tourists who were watching the pilot's skills on the island.

Many of them crouched down and covered their heads from fear, the loud sound and the dust that was kicked up on the beach. After flying over a low fence, the plane landed almost immediately.

The airport explained that the size of the island does not allow for a long runway, so the planes fly very low. However, this particular flight was probably planned in advance, as you can see many cameras recording the landing.

The video has already garnered more than half a million views, and in the comments, users joked about the reaction of the landing witnesses.

"How many of them do you think needed new pants?", "These people shouldn't be there in the danger zone", "Powerful hair dryer, isn't it?", - they say in the messages.
