Legendary pilot, Captain Chesley "Sully" Sullenberger, is celebrating the 10th anniversary of his miracle landing by asking people to share their own #MiracleMoment.


Ten years ago, US Airways Flight 1549 took off from LaGuardia Airport and mere moments later the aircraft collided with a group of birds causing the engines to fail.

Captain Sully did not feel as though the aircraft could make it back to LaGuardia.

He was faced with the options of landing in a small, private airport in New Jersey or landing in the Hudson River.

Feeling as though the New Jersey airport was too far, Sully chose to land in the water.

The captain was able to successfully land the aircraft with no fatalities and only 5 serious injuries.

People called the incident the Miracle on the Hudson.

The flight was originally intended for Charlotte, North Carolina, and the aircraft is now on display at the Carolinas Aviation Museum in Charlotte.

To celebrate the decade anniversary of the miracle, Captain Sully asked Twitter to share their own #Miracle Moments.

His tweet refers to the Carolinas Air Museum Twitter account which went on to ask people for their #MiracleMoments on January 15th.

People everywhere are sharing their own life-altering moments to celebrate Sully's heroic landing.






Others took the opportunity to thank Sully, his flight crew and pilots everywhere.




In 2016, Sully's bravery was made into a film (Sully) starring Tom Hanks, directed by Clint Eastwood.

Trump Ripped After Going Off On Bonkers Rant About Room's Decor During Cabinet Meeting

During Tuesday's cabinet meeting while the press was in attendance, MAGA Republican President Donald Trump gave a rambling stream of consciousness speech that went all over the place before landing on paint versus gold leaf, leading people to again question the POTUS' mental acuity amid a notable cognitive decline.

In a disjointed monologue about the decor in the cabinet room, Trump said he stole a grandfather clock from Secretary of State Marco Rubio's office and chose a painting of James Polk because the frame matched the frame around his favorite President—Andrew Jackson.
