First Calista Flockhart and now this? Poor Harrison!

[ninjabridemom]

Aww!

What happened to Calista?

[Miss Phryne Fisher]

This is not OK. Enough people have already died in 2015, I don't need anymore. I hope he is alright.

Harrison Ford is in critical condition after crash landing a plane in Venice, Calif. on Thursday, according to several reports.

The 72-year-old crash landed on Penmar Golf Course after something apparently went wrong mechanically with the single-engine plane at around 2:25 p.m. Ford was transferred to a local hospital in critical condition with head injuries. The actor was the only one aboard the plane and the only person who sustained injuries.

Ford reportedly walked away from the crash, and was later attended to by two physicians who were on the scene.

“There was blood all over his face,” Howard Tabe, an employee at the Penmar Golf Course, told NBC News. “Two very fine doctors were treating him, taking good care of him. I helped put a blanket under his hip.”

Why do actors continue to get in those little planes? It's like a weird curse.

I will freak the fuck out if that happens.

And he can't die, there's 2 more installments of Star Wars to film!!!!!

[bonquiqui]

I hope he's okay. Two things in that article shocked me...

He is 72 and he has been in multiple plane crashes

[justemily]

No!!! I hope he's ok!!

[lilac05]

I just saw it's "better classified as serious" with lacerations and possible fractures (NBC News).

[cleo29]

I hate small planes. I hope he will be ok.

Those little planes scare me.

My dad was a navy jet pilot but now flies his own plane for fun. I 100% trust him with my life, but I do get a little nervous when I hear about small plane crashed in his state But I just remember the stats that we are all more likely to get in a car accident and it makes me feel better.

[underwaterrhymes]

It sounds like he's going to be okay.

I love him.

[cinderbella]

My dad owns a small plane and these stories always freak me the fuck out.

I hope he's alright!

I have a friend who flies small planes, and owns a 1948 prop. Small planes are not like jets - vintage small planes are not unsafe, assuming proper maintenance.

Don't know what happened here, though.

I'm not commenting on the planes or the pilot, I'm just saying that actors/musicians/etc have a history of dying on these small planes!

He's 72???

Right?!? I'm pretty sure I find this piece of information the most shocking in the article

[underwaterrhymes]

Apparently they exaggerated or misreported the seriousness of his injuries.

He's going to be fine.

[G22]

I'm so glad he's ok for the most part. I love him.

[wannabe]

Yeah, his son tweeted that he's at the hospital and that his dad is "battered, but ok."

Yay!
