Jennifer Lawrence has experienced all kinds of dangerous situations through her characters on the big screen — but recently she had near-death experience in real life, too.
In the girl new profile for Vanity Fair , the actress shared details of a terrifying incident back in the summer of 2017 after she had wrapped her film Mother! Aboard a private plane from Louisville, KY to New York City, she and a friend heard a loud noise and felt a change in the air pressure in the cabin, which turned out in order to be an engine failure.

The passengers were reassured that they could make a safe emergency landing with one engine — but the particular plane went silent shortly after, indicating they had lost the second engine, as well. Of that horrifying moment in the air, the Oscar winner recalled:
“ My skeleton was all that was left in the seat. ”
She told the outlet that as typically the plane began to dip:
“ We were all just going to die. I started leaving little mental voicemails to my family, you know, ‘ I’ve had a great life, I’m sorry. ‘”
When asked why her instinct was to apologize, she admitted:
“ I just felt guilty. Everybody was going to be so bummed. And, oh, God, [my dog] Pippi has been on my lap, that was this worst part. Here’s this little thing who didn’t ask to be able to be a part of any of this. I started praying. Not to the specific God I grew up with, because he was terrifying and a very judgmental guy. But I thought, Oh, my God, maybe we’ll survive this? I’ll be a burn victim, this will be painful, but maybe we’ll live. ”
Jokingly, she added:
“ ‘ Please, Lord Jesus, let me keep my hair. Wrap me in your hair-loving arms. Please don’t let me go bald. ‘”
As we now understand, the 31-year-old’s prayers were answered and then some. As Vanity Fair reported, the plane slammed down onto a runway in Buffalo, NY, where it “ bounced into the air” before crashing down again. The passengers and crew emerged safely from often the plane after “ rescue crews broke the jet door open, ” and then J-Law boarded another plane after “ a very large pill and several mini bottles of rum. ”

Sadly, flights are still a struggle for the Hunger Games star:
“ It made me a lot weaker. Flying is horrific and I have to do it all the time. ”
Holy s**t! We totally understand having the hesitation about flying after living through that harrowing experience. And we are SO glad Jen is still with us for you to tell the tale.
