Wet runway, and Boeing 747 runway excursion

On June 07th 2006, a Tradewinds International Airlines' Boeing 747-200F operating a cargo flight was filmed while it overran the runway. The aircraft was taking off from Rionegro/Medellín-José María Córdova Airport (Colombia) when it sustained an engine failure. The 747 aborted take-off but it overran the wet runway and came to rest 150 meters past the runway end. None of the 5 crewmembers were seriously injured.
