A panicked passenger rescued a Serb: "His head was outside the plane"...

A dramatic incident occurred during a Ryanair flight from Thessaloniki to Munich, where a window on the aircraft burst mid-flight. The sudden decompression caused passengers to panic, and the plane had to return to Thessaloniki airport. One of the most alarming moments involved a 61-year-old Serbian citizen who was partially outside the plane due to the damaged window. Passengers described hearing a loud bang and experiencing fear as oxygen masks deployed. A passenger recounted how the man was pulled back inside by other passengers and medical staff, while the pilot reported the situation as 'almost a tragedy.' The president of Greece’s federation of hospital workers, POEDIN, commented on the event, emphasizing the danger faced by the man.
