This USAF Hercules C-130 crashed on July 1st, 1987 during a military exercise at Fort Bragg, narrowly missing spectators seconds before it crashed and burst into flames, killing four crewmen as well as a soldier on the ground. Two other crewmen were injured.
The plane was displaying a low level airdrop technique in which a parachute is used to pull a tank out the rear cargo door while the plane is a few feet above the ground, but the crew pulled up too late and hit the ground.

  • my dad was there when it crashed

  • I was there when it happened. Some things that you don't see well are the ramp ripping off, and the fuselage buckling badly. The starboard wing, closest to the crowd, nearly makes contact with the ground. When the plane veered off into the woods and "blew-up", it hit a military vehicle in which a serviceman was sitting. We walked away as ash fell onto the crowd. Amazingly, they put spectators onto the buses and took them away to see more military displays of firepower.

  • That did seem overly extremely steep. I wonder why the pilot didn't notice?

  • at least the tank survived

  • he drop a tank ? that it ????

  • Omfg... Do you not know what the USAF-C-130 Hercules was used for dude..? do some reaserch kid...
