Bakenaked Ladies member Ed Robertson is lucky to be alive after he and three others survived a float-plane crash on Sunday (August 24) north of Bancroft in Canada.

Crashing shortly after takeoff at approximately 12:30 P.M., the plane was totaled after losing airspeed but all four people managed to walk out of and quickly reported the crash.

"Everyone is fine and that is the important thing," said Adam Smith, a spokesperson for the band, to Canadian newspaper The Intelligencer.

Sources claim that Robertson was in fact, piloting his own plane.
