A Boeing 727 crashed in a Mexico desert on Friday and you didn't hear about it because it was on purpose.

It was for a Discovery Channel special that's supposed to show what it's like to be in a serious, but survivable plane crash.

No passengers were on board, and the pilot ejected before it hit the ground. So far, the only video of it is cell-phone footage, but the full footage will be on an episode of the Discovery Channel series, "Curiosity" later this year.
