Hundreds of passengers miraculously escaped after an Emirates flight skidded on a runway and burst into flames Wednesday at Dubai International Airport.
But a firefighter was killed while trying to battle the inferno, the Dubai government's media office said.
Dramatic images showed fire and thick black smoke billowing from the stricken Boeing 777 shortly after it came to a stop out on the runway.
There were no fatalities among the 282 passengers and 18 crew members on board, Emirates said.

Every single passenger and crew member lived but a firefighter died? The hell did he do?

I have a friend that works for them, I'm sure she's fine.

There's a video showing a mini explosion so maybe that caught him.
Or perhaps an accident like when Asiana crash landed at SFO and the firefighters accidentally ran over survivors and killed them.

News reports say his last words were "hold my beer".
