Three escape plane crash

Three people escaped serious injury when the light plane they were in crashed into a railyard near Calgary. One firefighter on the scene says he's never seen anyone walk away from a crash like that before. The Cessna 310 slammed into the roof of a building after one of the survivors said trouble came out of no where. 27-year-old John Gibbs was the pilot of the flight and along with passengers Jason Skehar and Steve Dalman, escaped the crash. Skehar say after the plane crashed, their first thought was it would explode. He says the weather began to turn bad as they hit Calgary and there appeared to be ice on the wings. The three were able to free themselves from their seat belts while dangling upside down and escape the wreckage.
