Meet Boy Who survived TWO Plane Crashes that Killed his Entire Family [Video]
Former high school basketball star Austin Hatch spent the past two years re-learning how to breathe, eat, walk and live after surviving a plane crash that killed his father and stepmother in Charlevoix, Michigan years after a 2003 crash had already killed Austin’s mother, brother, and sister.
Austin’s father had remarried and was adamant that he stick with his passion for flying despite the earlier trauma of losing most of his family.
June 24, 2011, Austin, his father, his stepmother, and the family dog Brady smashed into a garage of the Charlevoix, Michigan airport. Only Austin and Brady made it out alive.
The teen who managed to survive the two deadly plane crashes that took the lives of his entire family spoke publicly Wednesday for the first time since his impossibly tragic tale became national news in 2011. Watch below:

Despite the emotional torture that has marked most of his childhood, Hatch maintained a remarkably upbeat attitude and announced two years after he was originally offered a spot on the team that he would indeed be fulfilling his dream of joining the University of Michigan’s basketball team.

I would never get on a plane with this guy.
ReplyDeleteThe father obviously shouldn't have been flying a plane, after he crashed the first one killing his family. When the same pilot crashes twice, it is not just a coincidence. That being said, this poor boy has endured such tragedy. I hope he is able to recover fully and live a relatively normal life.
