The Indian passenger, who was seen wearing a yellow shirt, was videotaping the view from the plane's window then he turned the camera to show himself and some passengers before they started shouting when pilots lost control over the aircraft.
Another unverified video was captured showing the plane while landing and it was seen on fire in mid-air before hitting the ground.

More videos emerged online, showing rescue teams searching for survivors.
On Monday, officials announced finding the black boxes of the Nepalese plane.
Sixty-eight passengers and four crew members were aboard the Yeti Airlines flight, ATR 72-500, which was headed from Nepal's capital city Kathmandu and crashed shortly before landing in Pokhara, the country’s second-largest city 200 kilometers to the west.
Police spokesperson Tek Prasad Rai told the BBC: "It's unlikely there will be any survivors."
