This video takes us behind the scenes at Dallas Fort-Worth International Airport (KDFW), where on December 3, 2020, a belt loader was inadvertently wedged beneath an Embraer E175LR (N258NN), operating as Envoy Air 3517. The driver of the belt loader was fine. The aircraft was… not as fine. It’s not the most heart-racing footage, but it does present a view that is rarely seen by the general public. And something a bit more exciting follows.
Also in this video is new material from our sister channel @What You Haven’t Seen, which publishes original reporting and exclusive footage covering transportation safety. Unusually, both videos could have easily fit on either channel, since the @What You Haven’t Seen footage shows the unintentional destruction of a Bell 206L-4 helicopter (N119SP) operated by Minnesota State Patrol. As seen here, the MSP helicopter was significantly damaged while conducting ground rescue personnel exercises at an Army training site in Arden Hills, Minnesota.

Imagine how expensive this incident would've been
I'm in fort worth in da eastside on Rosedale and Miller
I was there on the ramp when it happened the damage was pretty bad. Especially to the belt loader…
Wait so you're telling me this is what you meant when you said "Ima destroy that belt-loader, bby 😉😉😘💦💦💦"
Well you know this was her last day on the job ðŸ˜
I am hella confused to this video first it’s the air port and all the sudden it’s a heli crash 💥
Let's be real…you have to be a complete idiot to even think about doing something like this.
"A female that hit something."
Imagine.
I've driven those loaders for years. It could have been a loader she was unfamiliar with. At FedEx, those loaders were notoriously finnicky and the forward and reverse switches on them were sometimes reversed. So it's very possible she thought she was putting the loader in reverse, and instead took off straight under the aircraft.
Damn. This whole situation is a bit below the belt
The sped up footage reminds me of City Skylines lol
Before watching the video I knew it was a woman behind the wheels .
woman moment
A hispanic cop, well golley
That dispatcher is impressive.
She must have engaged ramming speed.
We don't have planes in our crash report system. 10-8
The rear rotator missed that guy with the GoPro by a gnats ass.
Ahhh war thunder helicopter gameplay is a bitch to learn
Thanks for the bonus video I think it’s kind of funny that the moment I saw that they use duct tape on the helicopter I am mediately knew something was about to go wrong
BLM has since paid her fines & is currently lobbying for her to be a pilot since it’s wrong that just cause the vehicle the male pilot drove was privileged enough to not be punished due to his privileged behavior they both need large passenger airliners
Boards plane & thinks “thank god no female drivers to deal withâ€
(Thump)
Surprised they didn’t field sobriety test her.
The cop complaining why he got called ?! I get why but c'mon it's not like he has somewhere else to go
The case was solved when I heard dispatch say "female driver" …
I admit to backing up in my seat when I saw the rotor coming toward the camera.
Metro State Ramp Services, Motor One is under a plane
That handy dandy standard issue back scratcher
Job security.
How in the actual fuck?
"watch the rotor"
uhh DURRR yuh THINK?!
Imagine having your flight delayed because of something like this.
See what happens when something bleeds 7 days a month * doesn't die? Well here ya go!!
Never drive under a plane! And don’t walk between a tractor and what it’s towing! I’m certain those are universal safety rules. I’m confident she received formal training before driving that beltloader.
I miss the smell of fuel on the tarmac. United Ramp Service and Bag Room are the best group of guys I’ve ever worked with. Love you United IAD!
Damn women drivers
woman driver 🙂
Is that a Metro State fire truck?
She'd be better off staying home, making sammiches and changing diapers. We would all be. Thank you 🤣
Holy crap there's a bunch of misogynistic comments in this one, fucking hell.
Well, crap. It just HAD to be a female driver!
Now that's unusual they had Cuban dialect working at DFW I would have expected more at MIA! 🤨ðŸ‘
This is the most accurate DFW international commercial ever.
Remember bois. Lovefield or nothing..
On today’s episode of how FkD up is FkD up __ That’s FkD uP
7:37 Duct tape ðŸ˜‚â˜ ï¸ not a good sign….
I’m glad that nothing and nobody has ever hit one of my airplanes during my career but I did have a close call once. In Kuwait, the lights of another aircraft suddenly lit our cockpit up like daylight. I grabbed a nearby mic and yelled onto ground frequency “Evergreen 747, STOP!!!†Somehow they didn’t see us and nearly rammed us beak-to-beak while we were parked and preparing for our next flight.
But I do know another pilot who smacked another aircraft on the ground while taxiing. She did that at Ramstein. And on another occasion, in Rota, I was in the aircraft during gale force winds out on the ramp. The winds tore a roof off of a building and it landed right on top of a nearby Lear, destroying it.
Just sayin if they would have hired a man instead they would have saved 100 plus thousand dollars
The pilot did an excellent job of avoiding further disaster. He must have known his engine was going down so used the last bit of power to extract
I'm sure it looks more expansive than it actually is.
Why the hell is an airport still using vhs tapes??
Do not know why I was called? Have no experince in USA but in Canada if you are impaired whether it is a car or plane or forkilift or golfcart or belt loader you are charged with DUI. Maybe your there to observe if any signs of impairment?
