A video has begun circulating online of a crazy piece of footage of a plane's engine sucking up and utterly destroying a cargo container.

The incident occurred at Chicago O'Hare International Airport. On Thursday, American Airlines flight 47 from Heathrow Airport, London, touched down at the airport.
In the video, a tug driver transports four cargo trains in front of the airplane. The engines were still roaring, and the power of an engine overpowered the cargo. The engine displaced three cargo containers, and they flew toward the plane.
The force throws two down the runway, just missing the engine. However, the jet blast does send one of the cargo containers right into the engine. Pieces and debris of the cargo container can be seen flying about the engine as it gets eviscerated.
The driver was unmoved and was unhurt by the incident.
1/? CCTV footage of yesterday American Airlines #AA47 cargo container ingestion has surfaced, & it doesn't look good for the tug driver towing the cargo containers. Just as I suspected, they went onto the service road between 2 aircraft. #OHare #avgeek #ChicagoScanner #ORD pic.twitter.com/j7H8uqQBpx
