You see this on a lot of action-adventure movies: A crippled plane ditches in the ocean or some other body of water and the heroes jump out. Unfortunately, in a real-life water landing, especially for a large passanger jet, usually doesn't end well.
This one did. US Airways Flight 1549 suffered a "double bird strike" and went down in the Hudson River, NY. Everyone was rescued. It's really heartening to see smiles all around a rescue operation.
Remember: Any landing you walk away from is a good one.
