A Serb almost fell out of a Boeing.

A 61-year-old Serbian citizen was injured during a flight with Ryanair from Thessaloniki when a window in the aircraft shattered mid-flight. His wife described how she and another passenger initially held onto him to prevent him from falling out of the plane, later assisted by a man sitting nearby. The man was partially outside the plane when the window broke due to pressure differences, causing debris to fly through the cabin. Oxygen masks deployed automatically, and passengers were frightened. The man was secured by his seatbelt, which helped save his life. The plane changed course and landed safely at Thessaloniki Airport, where passengers were evacuated. The injured man and those who helped him were taken to the hospital. Serbian consular authorities confirmed he is not in critical condition but are assessing the extent of his injuries. According to Greek media reports, part of the damaged engine reportedly detached during descent and struck the cabin window. An investigation into the incident is ongoing.
