Louisville, United States - November 04, 2025 A video filmed by X user Andy Weedman captures a terrifying scene alongside I-65 near Louisville International Airport (KSDF) on a rainy November evening. Runway lights and perimeter fencing rush past as a massive fire unfolds in the distance. The footage shows a colossal black smoke plume climbing over 1,000 feet into the bruised sky. Orange flames flicker below, fed by jet fuel from the UPS Flight 2976 crash. Spot fires dot the surrounding grass, while emergency vehicles and ladder trucks swarm the tarmac, spraying water to control the blaze. Traffic along I-65 grows dense, brake lights glowing on the rain-slicked highway. The airport’s control tower stands silhouetted against the smoke, emphasizing the scale of the disaster. Weedman narrates: "Large smoke cloud from fire related to UPS flight UPS2976 crash tonight while driving past KSDF." The video closes with a sign-off expressing solidarity: "Sending love to friends/family of those affected." The clip provides a raw, up-close perspective on the fire and destruction caused by the crash.
