The pilot of this Cessna 150 had a lively 4th of July weekend. While towing a banner on Independence Day with his aircraft over the Surfside residential community beach just North of Seal Beach, California he lost engine power and was forced to ditch the aircraft in the ocean about 100 feet off the beach. The video starts up almost immediately after impact. Local life guards were able to drag the pilot and sole occupant out of the Cessna and back to the beach where he was transported to the hospital with minor injuries. The pilot did manage to drop his banner shortly before bringing her in.
