A friend showed this to me. It's a documentary about an A380 case where Engine 2 exploded and severed the main control wires in the wing. The cockpit lost all control and the pilots could only steer using the throttles. Very interesting to show what happens when modern aircraft that 'fly themselves fail'. This particular flight was lucky as to who they had on board (as you'll find out!).

p.s. probably worth setting aside some time it's around 50mins!
