Moment emergency slide falls from United Airlines Boeing 767 into a Chicago back yard as plane lands on flight from Switzerland

Newly unearthed video footage appears on the show as an emergency inflatable slide fell to the ground from a commercial airliner landing at Chicago O’Hare International Airport.

No one was injured in the incident Monday, when the slide of United Airlines Flight 12 fell into the backyard of a Chicago home before the plane landed safely on a flight from Switzerland.

Video from a home security camera obtained by DailyMail.com shows the Boeing 767 briefly passing through the frame before an object flutters to the ground.

The slide landed in the backyard of Patrick Devitt’s home on the 4700 block of North Chester, a quiet tree-lined residential street with single-family homes.

Devitt said he was driving home to his home on the far northwest edge of town when his son and father-in-law, who were home at the time, heard “a loud bang hitting the side of the house” around noon.

Devitt said WLS TV the couple initially took little notice of the noise until his father-in-law went outside and discovered the silver slide in the yard.

Neither could immediately identify what the slide was, other than “obviously something that shouldn’t be there,” and called 911 after noticing fuel caps on the sides of the object.

Devitt dragged his backyard slide forward. He said the slide hit part of the house, damaging the roof, downspout and a window screen.

“If it’s all stretched out, like it’s kind of jumbled up, I’m sure in the picture of when we dragged it out, it’s bigger than a small car. It’s a very, very large machine,” Devitt said.

After the incident, United said it immediately contacted the Federal Aviation Administration and was working to better understand what happened.

A United spokesperson told DailyMail.com on Wednesday that the company had nothing new to say about the investigation.

The FAA said in a statement that it is investigating the matter, but did not offer any new updates beyond what was shared Monday.

After the flight from Zurich landed in O’Hare without incident, maintenance workers discovered that an emergency evacuation slide was missing.

United said the Boeing in question was crewed by 10 crew members and had 155 passengers on board.

Patrick said the Chicago Police Department was “great, they got here right away,” and other units joined them soon after. The slide was finally cleared around 3:45 p.m.

Devitt said his home sustained “slight damage” but “nothing too crazy” in the freak incident.
