Harrison Ford saved his own life with a "textbook emergency landing" after his plane suffered engine failure yesterday. The 72-year-old star suffered "multiple gashes" to his head when he grounded his two-seater vintage World War II training plane on a Golf Course in Los Angeles, and his quick reactions ensured he cheated death. This footage shows the moment onlookers saw he was in trouble. The actor made an emergency radio call requesting an "immediate return" because his engine had "failed" and while he was cleared for landing, he didn't make it to the runway. Harrison remains in hospital in LA but he is expected to make a "full recovery" after the crash.
