Pretty unprofessional on the pilots part to suggest prayer...
On local news coverage the passengers hears a loud bang, followed by the vibrations.
The local news went on to say an engine 'seized', though that would not seem consistent with shaking continuing on for over 90 minutes.
Would have though shutting down the engine would be sufficient to stop the shaking though...
Anyone have some actual information as to what happened?

Brenton Atkinson said the plane started vibrating and shaking after what sounded like a small explosion.
“It was literally like you were sitting on top of a washing machine,” he told ABC radio.
“You could see the engine out the window which was really shaking on the wing.
“It was a little unnerving, everyone handled it pretty well, no one freaked out too much.”
