Hoping it's not anything worse. Been a tough couple yrs for Mr. Ford..

I read he walked away but he is in serious shape.
I really hope he makes it thru ok.
He was and is one of my childhood heroes.
Along side christopher reeve.

Fingers crossed he's okay.

[Dark Shadow]

According to the press conference a few minutes ago, it sounds like he's banged up bit, but will be OK. Will be a follow up press conference in about an hour.

Edited to add: apparently the first two on the scene were physicians who happened to be playing golf on the course where he crashed.

^^^ Oh that's good news. Thanks for the update!

[Nostalgiabuff]

yeah, they are reporting now he had lacerations to the head/face but is okay

[Earth 2 Chris]

Glad to hear it wasn't as bad as initially reported. Still, looked like a VERY close shave.

[Nostalgiabuff]

apparently had mechanical issues in a vintage plane and had to make a crash landing, reportedly had a large gash on his forehead (another scare to show off in the next Indiana Jones movie?)
glad he is okay though, we are losing too many heroes lately, I just heard Harve Bennet died

[Hedji]

Jeez, this has been a horrible week for my Heroes. I can't stand any more.

[EmergencyIan]

Happy to hear that the injuries are relatively minor.

[Werewolf]

Glad to hear his injuries weren't as critical as originally reported. Hopefully he will have a speedy recovery.

[Hector]

Please Han Solo...retire from flying the Millennium Falcon.

[HardyGirl]

Glad he's OK. I don't think I could take it if our beloved heroes from both Star Trek and Star Wars passed on.

[Hedji]

Alright, I'm feeling better now that reports are in that he's going to be okay.

So I whipped up a little meme:

[enyawd72]

Officials are saying he couldn't have handled it better and called him an unbelievably well trained pilot.

"Sir, the odds of surviving a crash landing are approximately 3,720 to 1..."

"Never tell me the odds!"

What else do you expect from the captain of the Millennium Falcon?
