The video above was shot on May 3 by a dashboard camera belonging to Guanting Li. That, indeed, is a plane hitting some power lines and then crashing onto the street in Mukilteo, Washington, about 25 miles north of Seattle.

The plane took off from nearby Paine Field at 3:30 p.m. and lost power shortly thereafter, according to Q13. The pilot tried to land on an empty street, but instead clipped some power lines and ruptured a fuel cell. Still, everyone, including the lone passenger, walked away.
“It looks like [the pilot] did an incredible job,” one witness told Q13.
