On the morning of August 1, 2009 Rob Lehr and Dan Parris went up in a single engine plane to film the Kibera slums near Nairobi, Kenya for their poverty documentary Give A Damn?. Within moments the flight turned tragic as the plane hit an electric telephone pole spinning to smash into a building before crashing three stories to the ground. Of the four passengers, Lehr, Parris, the pilot Frank and flight engineer Ryan, Lehr was the only one conscious. His actions and those of by-standers changed the course of history for himself, Parris, and the flight engineer Ryan. The plane exploded approximately five minutes after the three where safely away. Sadly the pilot Frank died on impact. Lehr gave his account from the Nairobi hospital just five hours after the crash while being treated for wounds and burns.
