Just hours before the crash between American Airlines flight 5342 and a US Army Black Hawk helicopter, one of the passengers, a teenage figure skater, uploaded a photo that sank the hearts of his fans.
The post was an image taken from the view of his seat on the plane, allowing his followers to connect the dots of what had happened to him.
The Skating Club of Boston later confirmed their suspicions, informing of the passing of 16-year-old Spencer Lane and Jinna Han, two promising skaters who documented their trip to Kansas on their social media profiles.
“I am so happy to have qualified for the national development camp earlier in November,” Spencer wrote in a heartbreaking photo accompanied by at least 15 other teenage athletes.
“It has been my goal almost ever since I became aware that it was a thing. I learned so much and met so many amazing people!” he said.
