Residents of Dassel, Minnesota saw a strange sight on Thursday.
A small airplane went through the ice on Spring Lake. The pilot, a recently laid off Northwest Airlines mechanic, was flying to visit his mother.
He planned to land on the lake — which is common in that area of Minnesota — when the plane's wheel hit a fish hole.
The plane got stuck and slowly began sinking as the weight of the plane proved too much for the weak spring ice.
Rescuers used inner tubes and other floatation devices to bring the plane up and keep it up.
No one was hurt in the incident.
