Leonardo DiCaprio narrowly avoided a plane crash.
Leo was on a Delta flight en route to Moscow when one of the engines shut down on Sunday. The mid-air emergency forced the plane back to JFK International Airport in NYC to make an emergency landing. He "wishes to commend the actions of the pilot and flight crew in bringing the plane to a safe landing," his rep tells ET.
No injuries were reported among the actor or other passengers. In fact, a source on the scene says the actor even signed autographs for crew members after they had landed safely.
