Episode Details

A frightening story and a cautionary tale for air travelers, after a 61-year-old man on a flight from Greece to Germany was partially sucked out of an airplane window. His wife and fellow passengers held onto his legs, and eventually pulled him back inside the plane. He is now recovering in the hospital with head and neck injuries and friction burns. Witness accounts from inside the cabin are harrowing and many believe the man is alive today because he was wearing his seatbelt when the window dislodged from the plane. This isn’t the first time an incident like this occurred, back in 2018, a woman was killed in eerily similar circumstances, on the same type of plane, a Boeing 737, headed from New York to Dallas.
