Kevin Hart survives airplane landing scare: 'God is good with a capital G'

Hollywood comedian Kevin Hart survived an airplane landing scare during his trip to Boston last week. The actor was in a private jet that blew its tires as it touched down on the ground.

In a video on Snapchat, the "Jumanji" actor described how his plane maneuvered hard causing him to fear for his life. Fortunately, the pilot took control and no one was injured.

"I got real-life angels on my back," the actor told his followers on the social app. "When things like this happen, it's confirmation. God is good, so is life," he added.

The actor also posted a photo on Instagram with his friends Na'im Lynn, Spank Horton and John Bugandee after the plane landing, in which they had their hands clasped to say a prayer. Hart also wrote in the caption, "God is good with a capital G."

Officials of the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) confirmed to the Boston Globe that an aircraft landed at the Logan airport with a blown left tire. The runway had to temporarily shut down to clear the site of any debris and the plane was towed to the ramp as the passengers deplaned.

Another passenger, Keegan Lester, also told the Boston Globe that he frantically sent text messages to all of his friends to tell them that he loves them as he feared they might die.

Hart was on his way to Philadelphia to watch the game between the 76ers and the Boston Celtics at the 2018 NBA playoffs. That evening, he and his friends were briefly seen on TV enjoying the game from their courtside seats hours after the scare.
