You mean this one?:
YouTube - Air Canada Flight 143 Part 1

It was a 767 it seems. Very cool episode! (of Air Crash Investigation)

edit: in regards to the video, seems very unnecessary..

Dont see anything wrong with that. That was normal back in the old days.

How many ways can you say stupid... never, never shut down a working engine in a single-engine airplane. It elminates options, which leaves bending metal as the only option if you aren't quite as good as you thought you were.
