Amazon - Season 1 Episode 1 Fallen Angels
While flying through a storm over the Amazon Forest, flight 767 to Rio de Janeiro suffers a shot circuit in its cargo deck and starts to lose height. Moments later, one of the wings is struck by lightning and the pilots are forced to crash land in a small clear. The tail section of the plane is cut off and slides down a cliff. The next morning, a rescue team searches the crash site, but they can't find any survivors. Since many of the passengers were Americans, the team is made up of American Rangers. Two of them find the tail section, but there is nobody inside, dead or alive. One of the rangers is attacked by piranhas and other is killed by a native, so the colonel in charge decides to call off the rescue. A Brazilian official objects, claiming that one of the passengers was famous opera singer Pia Claire and her body has not been found yet. The colonel says that since all the bodies are badly burned, he can pick up one and claim that it's Claire's.
