Last night a British Airways Boeing 747 jumbo jet sliced into a building in Johannesburg. Amazingly, no one onboard was injured.

The pilot reportedly took a runway that was too narrow for the 747's 211-foot wingspan, BusinessWeek reports. The plane's crew and 185 passengers were all perfectly ok, but four people were injured on the ground by falling debris.
