“I was filming towards the end of the runway and obviously I didn't make it,” he said. “It was closer to home than I thought.”

Lennon told WMUR that he realized something was wrong when he felt the aircraft immerse.

“It started to get soaked up and I told myself, 'Oh, no,' and tried not to stop it completely,” he recalled.

The pilot left unharmed.
