One of the secrets to getting the perfect shot is standing in the right position.

 

One man, who is fascinated by planes, was planning to get the perfect shot of a low-flying plane at Gustaf III airport in St. Barts, when he stood in what turned out to be the most dangerous spot.

 

According to reports, the plane came in a little too low for its landing, missing the tourist by a matter of inches.

 

In a YouTube video that has gone viral, the tourist can be seen almost being knocked down by the plane.

 

In what seems to be a miracle escape, he managed to duck from the plane and escape death.

 

The whole ordeal was captured by plane spotter Sébastien Politano.
