Sounds like a bad day in paradise.

(CNN) -- A passenger jet crashed Sunday at the Phuket International Airport in southern Thailand shortly after landing, killing 87 of the 130 people on board, according to Health Ministry officials.
Passengers and crew scrambled for the One-Two-GO plane's emergency exits, trying to escape as flames spread through the aircraft, witnesses said.

"When they were up in the air, they thought something was not right," Maria Nihlen said. "Before the second [landing attempt], they knew that they were going to crash and they formed into position for an emergency landing and, well, then it happened."
She said her son -- who suffered only minor bruises -- was stuck in his seat belt as passengers climbed over him to get to the exit door, which was still closed.
"People were falling over him ... and then the shelf fell over him from above," she said. "But he and his friend managed to actually push hard away the people to be able to open the emergency exit door."
