Runway excursion.
I love how spokes people try and used calm and leading terminology when describing something that went FUBAR.
A 737 was coming in for a landing at an airport in Turkey. They had some sort of issue and skidded off the runway, down an embankment and stopped just short of the ocean. And when I say just short I'm talking what looks like 40 or 50 feet. This is how the airline described it. Quote:
Pegesus.... I saw the pics. Not an excursion. Trust me on that. Pegasus Airlines plane skids off runway at airport in Trabzon, Turkey

Now with service directly to the beach! Be careful, you might encourage whatshisname.
Being serious, there were no injuries. The improvements in aircraft safety with better seats is impressive. |

Maybe the pilot was dodging illegal aliens, er, uh, undocumented immigrants?

"Excursion" is the term utilized in the industry (and FAA, NTSB etc) for just about any event when a plane leaves the paved surfaces. Well, anytime other than flight anyway.
Conversely, an Incursion occurs when a plane that has not been cleared onto a specific taxiway or runway enters it none the less. |

It must have gone over the edge in slow motion for there not to be any injuries. Is there a video of it?

Yes, there was an accident sometime in the not too distant past that led to drastic improvements in the accident worthiness of airliner seats.
