‘Discovering Heaven’ Shares The Amazing Story Of A Man Who Survived A Plane Crash In Burbank

The Portal Of The Folded Wings is a beautifully erected memorial to aviation pilots who have since passed. If you haven’t taken the time to visit Burbank’s Valhalla Cemetery and this stunning structure, you should. My children and I have been many times, especially when they were little and weather patterns change. If the planes are coming in to the airport from the side of the Folded Wings, then it’s the absolute best place to get close to enormous planes landing! It’s simply spectacular.

This memorial, however, is also the location of a plane crash in 1969, where Capt. Dale Black became the only survivor of a non-survivable airplane crash and experienced something most of us cannot fathom. What he shares is chilling and inspirational.

There’s no escaping the faith element of this short film. It’s powerful, even if you don’t follow any personal faith of your own. Discovering Heaven taps into the broader idea that the human experience is not as quantifiable and rational as we try to make it out to be. No matter your faith, this is a must see experience.

He shares his experience in his best-selling book “Flight To Heaven”. Discovering Heaven is the documentary of his story and this amazing story is set right here in our beautiful city.
