A man claims to have had a 'vision' about one of the deadliest aviation disasters in the history of the US.
This was American Airlines Flight 191, which crashed moments after taking off from O'Hare International Airport in Chicago.
All 271 passengers and crew on board the plane were killed, as well as two people who were on the ground.
In the days leading up to the disaster, David Booth started having vivid dreams with some extremely disturbing imagery.
Describing what he was seeing, he told Paranormal World on YouTube: "The dream would always start out in the same way. It was a bright sunlit day and I'm looking at a very large airport and a very long runway and there's a really large plane.

"I can see American Airlines. I see the plane start to taxi on the runway and it gathers up speed. All of a sudden, as it's going off, there's a perception in my mind that there's something wrong with the sound that the engine is making."
He described how the plane would always go straight up in the air, and then turn and go into the ground.
There, it 'explodes in this humongous inferno and then this wave of despair'.

He added the sensation was 'just like a physical object would just hit you right in the chest'.
Having a dream like that for one night would be enough to leave anyone feeling unsettled, but David continued having the dream the next night, and the next.
He said: "Every day, it got worse and worse and worse. Not knowing what to do, not knowing what I was supposed to do.
"Not being able to forget an image seared, not just into my mind, but into the very fabric of my entire being."

David reached out to the Federal Aviation Administrator (FAA), and spoke to Jack Barker, the FAA's public affairs director.
Barker said: "David sounded perfectly sane and credible, there was nothing kookie about him at all. He'd had a disturbing dream seven nights in a row (at that point).
"He had a problem and I listened to him. It was my job to do that."

But Barker said there wasn't anything he could do, saying: "David's dream didn't give me enough information to do anything with it. It didn't give a location, it didn't give a flight - some numbers which didn't make any sense."
He added: "I said: 'Thank you. There's nothing we can do about it but thank you for the information'."
When the catastrophe happened, Barker was left stunned, saying: "It hit me just how accurate he was. What he dreamed was basically what happened."
"You've got to experience that to understand how eerie it is."
