Passenger sucked out of airplane ‘to his shoulders’ after window breaks

Thrilling Escape: Traveler Partially Ejected from Ryanair Jet After Window Failure

Passenger sucked out of airplane to his – In a dramatic incident that unfolded high above the Mediterranean, a traveler on a Ryanair service experienced a terrifying ordeal when a cabin window popped loose, causing him to be drawn partially outside the aircraft. The budget carrier’s flight, which was en route to Memmingen in Germany, was compelled to execute an emergency return to its point of origin, Thessaloniki in Greece. This unexpected maneuver occurred shortly after the aircraft departed on Friday morning, following the sudden failure of a passenger window.

The Moment of Impact

According to reports from the Greek public broadcaster ERT, the unidentified individual was seated near the fuselage when the structural integrity of the window failed. The resulting pressure differential created a powerful suction force that pulled the man head-first out of his seat. Witnesses described the scene as chaotic, with the passenger being dragged upward until his shoulders were exposed to the elements. Fellow travelers immediately reacted to the crisis, managing to grasp the man and prevent him from being completely sucked out of the plane.

“We were sitting a bit further back from where it happened, all we heard was a loud noise and then the oxygen masks dropped. The injured man was bleeding and initially fainted.”
