It all happened in 2017 when the Oscar winner was heading to New York City from her hometown of Louisville, Kentucky. During the trip there came a time when passengers were informed that they had to attempt an emergency landing in Buffalo.
The actress was traveling with another passenger and her dog, Pippi
The ‘Do n’t Look Up’ star explained that she was only one of the two passengers on the plane; the other was the son of the doctor who was present when she and her two brothers were born. “We were all going to die. I started leaving little mental voice messages for my family, you know, 'I've had a great life, I'm sorry,' ”she said.
"I felt guilty. Everyone was going to be so discouraged. And oh my, [my dog] Pippi was on my lap, that was the worst part. Here's this little thing that didn't ask to be a part of any of this, ”added Lawrence.
"I started to pray", Jennifer Lawrence seeing the track full of ambulances
Once arriving in Buffalo and seeing the track full of fire trucks and ambulances, Lawrence says she began to pray. “I started to pray. Not the specific God I grew up with, because he was scary and a very critical guy. But I thought, my God, maybe we will survive this? I will be a victim of burns, this will be painful, but we may live, ”she said.
“‘ Please, Lord Jesus, let me keep my hair. [...] Please don't let me go bald '”, the actress joked about what she thought at the time.
The actress relates that the plane hit the runway, bounced and hit the runway again before coming to a stop. Rescuers opened the door of the plane and removed everyone unharmed, but Lawrence then had to board another plane "anesthetized thanks to a very large pill and several mini bottles of rum," said the actress.
