How to use "Plummet" in context?
When discussing crashes, most people think of airplanes, cars and other large, constructed objects. However, there is a category of crash that is even more devastating: the plunging crash. plummeting crashes are caused by objects that plunge from a great height and consequently incur a large impact. The results can be catastrophic, often leading to fatalities.
The plunging crash represents a relatively new danger on the global aviation scene. The first recorded plunge crash was in 1932, when a British Airways Boeing 314 (registered G-AGJB) crashed on take-off from Lagos, Nigeria, killing all 36 people on board.
