How did the Crocodile cause the air crash here is the strangest accident crash ever.

The aircraft was a Let L-410 Turbolet, manufactured in 1991, with the Congolese registration 9Q-CCN and the build number 912608. On 25 August 2010, a Let L-410 Turbolet passenger aircraft of Filair crashed on approach to Bandundu Airport in the Democratic Republic of the Congo, killing all but one of the 21 people on board.

A crocodile that had been brought on board by one of the passengers apparently caused the accident as the passengers rushed to the front of the plane to escape. The movement seriously damaged the aircraft’s equilibrium, which made it impossible to maintain control of it..

The plane was carrying out a domestic round-trip flight from Kinshasa, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, stopping in Kiri, Bokoro, Semendwa, and Bandundu. The aircraft crashed into a home about a kilometer (0.6 mi) short of the runway at 13:00 local time (12:00 UTC) while making its final approach to Bandundu Airport. Most of the sources claim that nobody was injured while lying on the ground. 19 individuals were killed instantly, and two survivors were transported to the hospital; one of them eventually passed away from their injuries.

The accident is being looked investigated by the Congolese Ministry of Transport. There was no proof that the incident was due to a fuel shortage.

The sole survivor of the disaster told the investigators that a crocodile one of the passengers had smuggled in a duffel bag had escaped just before landing, causing fear among the passengers. All passengers and the flight attendant rushed to the cockpit, which caused the center of gravity of the aircraft to change and cause a loss of control. The crocodile apparently survived the collision but was killed by a machete blow.
