Captain 'Sully' Sullenberger on the untold story of 'The Miracle on The Hudson'

“Sully” examines the untold story of “The Miracle on The Hudson”, and who better to share that tale than the real-life hero himself, Captain Chesley "Sully" Sullenberger.

Oridinary American, doing extraordinary things. Well done Sir.

there is a man who never have to pay for drinks again... god bless you Sully and Skiles

Mr. Sully,
You, Jeff and your flight crew ARE heroes!! It's not just about doing your job. You went above and beyond flying a plane. You turned a river into a runway, something that no other pilot has ever done, and hopefully never have to do again... Any time your name is mentioned, I hear, " Oh, the pilot that landed that plane on the Hudson River"... You will forever be known as a Hero, and I love the movie portraying you. Seen it 17 times, and I'll watch it again tonight!! hahaha

It's nice to see someone getting admiration who really deserves it. So many fake heroes in our society --this guy is the real thing.

[patty]

He is still down to earth and humble man. God bless you captain.

Tom Hanks sure is a handsome man, he just has such a presence about him.And Capt.Sully is not to far behind.

I just saw the movie last night and couldn't believe how the NTSB was trying to crucify both Sully and Skiles. Especially when they told them how many simulations had been made for both LaGuardia and Teterboro and that all of them proved that they could have made it back. Then when he got to take away those 35 seconds, what a game changer, proving that The Capt. and FO did make the right decision. It's easy when you're in the simulator and while they are trying to make it as real as possible, it can't be. Every pilot went into that simulator knowing they would have a bird strike and how it was supposed to end, so that made it pretty unfair to Sully and Skiles. I enjoyed the credits at the end.

If you engines fail, just call Sully, he'll save the day.

Deus o abençoe ! Herói ! Sr. Sullenberger

[Ducati_Dude]

Saw the film... anxious to get it on Blu-ray... Maybe they will include a 'Sully' bobblehead... That would be awesome.

[ivanriverooo]

Legend goes when airplane hears his voice's pitch it goes "pull up!"

[Lore-wvmt]

poor guy he went thur hell with the B.S of the people who where trying to screw him over saying he could of landed...he did a great job!..

[briansmith]

I hope he got millions for this movie.

I loathe it when this Happens, the gall it takes to criticize the crew, to try and make them look irresponsible! Its really easy to sit in an office and nitpick the decisions made. To try and say they were wrong and what they should have done they were not there, they were not minutes from crashing. Sully not only saved the passenger's but also many in the city. Can you imagine what would have happened if theyd have crashed in the city!?. The proof of the correctness of Sullys decision is plain and obvious 155 ppl still alive! That wasn't luck! While i do understand the need for thoroughness on the NTSB's part, it seems as though several were out to get Sully
Perhaps they dislike him because he really is a hero and his plain humble courage shines a light on thier cowardice

[boatlover]

Realistically, he made the best choice. Had he made an instant choice to go back to LGB or even TEB (short runway without reverse thrust and an urban area), probably could have though not a sure thing by far. EWR was not possible. This had to be a split second decision and the pilots made historic attempts to restart the engines for a more sure outcome. They had no idea how bad the damage was to the engines. No lives lost, how can you criticize that? Has a commercial AC ever made a water landing without lives lost? Can't remember one.

[imdjc]

Did he do the right thing? No one died! The only way it could have been better was to issue parting gifts.

[SteveAubrey]

Sully is a TRUE hero of the first magnitude. Honorable mention should go to the great Tom Hanks and Clint Eastwood.

What is the UNTOLD STORY in your click bait headline of this insipid interview

[beachbum]

I just don't get it. No lurid extramarital affairs, no messy divorce, no arrests, no checking into rehab, no stories of the cops showing up at Sully's house at And they call this guy a CELEBRITY?? 😆

[rumplestiltskin]

The NTSB and other "officials" seemed to treat both pilots and the controller as criminal terrorists and put them through the wringer. Completely unwarranted. I would have balked by the second question, in fact while they were being "escorted into interrogation.
