A Singapore Airlines flight encountered severe turbulence, causing rapid G-force changes and a 178ft altitude drop in 5 seconds. The incident led to one death, injuries to over 70 passengers, and a terrifying experience for those onboard. Investigators found that the turbulence likely threw unbelted passengers around the plane, resulting in injuries and hospitalizations.
