THIS is the terrifying moment a plane crashed into a Ferris wheel as kids screamed in fear before they were left trapped in the horrific wreckage.
Footage shows the plane get caught in the 65ft wheel, after it ploughed inches away from children that were on the ride in Taree, Australia.
The video of the ordeal has been released for the first time since it happened at the Old Bar Beach Festival in 2011 on the Mid North Coast.
A girl who was on the ride repeatedly screamed "it's going to crash" as she filmed the plane before the impact.
Amber Christine Arndell, then 13, was filming herself and her younger brother, Jessie, when Paul Clarendon Cox crashed his Cheetah Sierra 200 into the ride.
In the video, which was shown in the NSW Supreme Court on Monday, Arndell can be heard saying: "Oh look, Jessie, a plane. We're going to watch a plane.
"Oh god, it's going to crash, it's going to crash, it's going to crash. Oh my god."
The boy can be heard screaming for his mother, and asks "Are we going to drop?" as his sister reassures him but begs to the people below "Please, let us down".
She added: "I feel sick, the plane's just there, it just crashed on us."
Eight years since the frightening ordeal, the now 21-year-old says she now suffers psychological problems and she's suing the Greater Taree City Council as well as the pilot.
The pilot, Mr Cox, himself is suing the local council, claiming it was negligent in a number of ways, reported news.com.au.
He argues the council failed to close the airstrip when it knew, or should've known, the Ferris wheel's position would be hazardous to aircraft flying in and out.
It also failed to ensure no structure was erected at the airstrip's southern end and failed to identify that the ride's location caused a potential obstruction, he claims.
Although he wasn't physically injured, he now says he suffers from post-traumatic stress disorder, specific phobia and depression.
According to his statement of claims, he also suffers from nightmares and avoidance issues related to planes.
The document states he has additionally developed an obsessional fear of sharp objects, which at its worst leaves him "afraid that pens will hurt him" or worried about injuring his fingers on the glass of his phone.
Mr Cox says the council owed him a duty of care and there was a foreseeable risk of a collision between an aircraft and the Ferris wheel.
