disaster all around dream

insane dream from this morning:

we were on a plane, bound for home. the plane was idling on the runway. the weather was overcast. as soon as the wheels were off the ground i looked out the window to my left. a massive shipping container fell from the sky into a construction tower. the other passengers all screamed. suddenly another plane flew past the window with a shipping container embedded in its wing. the plane had a thick trail of black smoke billowing from behind as it dipped forward and crashed somewhere out of sight.

i thought we in the middle of an earthquake, but that we should be fine since we were already airborne. then our plane started to lose altitude. everyone was panicking. our pilot tried to bring the plane down on a highway, but the buildings were too close together. we came down on the side of a building and some power lines, balanced precariously. in the distance i could see the highway ahead. on one side of it was the ocean, and there were people, cars and other objects along the path. without warning, a mess of power lines or cables were being dragged by some object i couldn't see, and they moved forward with a blinding speed, ripping everything in their path off the road ahead and into the water.

our plane slid down on to the highway and the pilot told everyone he was going to take off using it as the runway. we started to pick up speed and i saw more objects being thrown off the road in the distance. i told my wife to unbuckle her seat belt. she asked me why and i said "no time!" as i unbuckled it for her. the plane instantly was ripped in half by a huge metal cable as it sped along the roadway. we were jettisoned high into the air. i don't remember how or where we landed.

now we're running. there are emergency vehicles everywhere. army vehicles. the emergency crews are unloading people off the plane on stretchers. some people are less injured and are helping others. i am trying to find the front of the plane so i can grab my backpack. i run up and ask some army guys. one of them points to a wrinkled hunk of smoking metal.

we end up in a nearby building trying to find help. part of the building was a hospital with lots of staircases. nurses and patients moving quickly after the disaster. as we're discussing how to get a rental car, i can feel the building shake. screams are heard from all directions. a powerful earthquake shakes the building and it starts to crack the walls and ceilings. i don't know which way to run. then i wake up.




the end?
