Twilight actor Jackson Rathbone has taken to social media to describe the horrifying moment his plane was forced to make an emergency landing after one if its engines apparently exploded.
The actor – who played Jasper Hale in the films – has given a full account of the traumatic ordeal on his Who Say account, as his Jet Blue flight 1416, travelling from Austin to Long Beach in the US, filled with smoke mid-flight.
Â
Jackson, who was travelling with his wife and son, admitted he recited the Lord’s Prayer as air stewardesses manually deployed oxygen masks which had failed to automatically drop down.
Â
He wrote: “We were told to brace as we careened sharply back towards land. Guided by our pilot, and I believe our guardian angels, we landed safely.”

He added: “Over the PA, the pilot yelled “Brace!” The stewardesses made it into a chant. Â
I wrapped my arm around us. And we braced.”
Â
According to Sky News, four people were injured in the incident – but it seems Jackson escaped unharmed.
Â
He goes on to describe how the doors were thrown open and the passengers had to escape down the inflatable ramp out the doors.
Â
Long Beach Airport spokeswoman Stephanie Montuya-Morisky told Sky News the emergency slides were deployed and all 142 passengers and five crew members were able to get off.
