Video of Hawaiian Plane Crash From Inside the Cabin



We're going down: Passenger's harrowing footage of fatal plane crash

A crash last month off Hawaii resulted in the death of state health official Loretta Fuddy, who released President Obama's birth certificate

New footage taken by a passenger shows the crash as it happened

Fuddy was the only passenger to perish in the crash
