CNN--pax said heard a loud bang...plane shook...capt came on PA and said brace for impact.
Pax belives everyone got off.

WolF Blitzer talking to pax now on cell phone. He said heard a loud bang and saw smoke in cockpit. Said pilots told to prepare for impact immediately. Most pax didn't even touch water. Said all got off in 60 seconds. Amazing.
He's now praising the pilots for saving lives.
