THIS is the moment a passenger plane spat flames and sparks from its wing in a horror landing after its one of its wheels failed. It was one of two other landing horrors to happen on the same night as the devastating South Korea crash - which is feared to have killed 179 people.

The Air Canada flight going from St John's to Halifax threw the passengers into turmoil as it crashed down on the runway. Meanwhile, thousands of miles away in Norway, another jet dodged disaster as it came skidding off of the runway following a suspected hydraulics failure.

The plane in Norway was a Boeing 737-800 - the same type of jet which crashed in South Korea. The horror footage shows one of the Air Canada's wings wings erupt into a ball of fire on its descent - as the fliers look on in terror. The plane wing can be seen beginning to spark, and then quickly catches fire that pulsates in the wind.

They can be seen inside holding on for dear life as their flight comes dangerously close to disaster. The video pans to them as the interior can be seen coming apart and they are forced into a violent shake. The shock moments were shared to social media platform X at 4.28am.

It is believed that one of the Air Canada flight AC2259's tires failed to deploy during landing, which sent the aircraft careening along the tarmac at a reported 20 degree angle. Passenger Nikki Valentine told CBC News: “The plane started to sit at about a 20-degree angle to the left, and we heard a loud crash sound as the wing skidded along the pavement, along with what I presume was the engine.
