Sometimes an inexplicable force intervenes in our lives on our behalf, or, if you prefer to be less mystical, we get extremely friggin lucky! This is what happened to this couple…

Barry Sim and his wife Izzy were told there were not enough seats on the plane for them and their baby so they switched to a later KLM flight.

Up to 10 British passengers were last night feared to be among the 295 people killed when a the Malaysia Airlines plane was apparently shot down on the Russia-Ukraine border.

Asked about his response to the crash, Mr Sim, from Scotland, said: “You get this sick feeling in the pit of your stomach […] We started getting butterflies. Your heartbeat starts going.”

Mrs Sim added: “There must have been someone watching over us and saying ‘you must not get on that flight’.

Talk about survivors guilt… this couple is couple is going to need some time to get over their close call.

Meanwhile, as more images of the crash and debris emerge, it seems to be close to confirmed that all 298 people on board were killed as the plane broke up mid-air when it was hit by a missile. The family of Captain Eugene Choo Jin Leong – the captain of this flight MH17, have yet to receieve official news. Presumably the airline is awaiting concrete evidence to confirm what we already know.

Devastating.
