How the fuck did anyone survive that?
Not just survived…
The article has a video that supposedly him after the accident. He has a slight limp and blood/dirt on him but not bleeding.
His proof is a plane ticket, but like…
It’s waaaaaay more likely dude missed his flight and is pulling a stunt compared to be virtually uninjured and walking into a busy area before rescue crews were out.
It’s like a 1 in billions chance if he was really on the plane
It’s waaaaaay more likely dude missed his flight and is pulling a stunt compared to be virtually uninjured and walking into a busy area before rescue crews were out.
This would be insane and quite a claim. His brother was on the flight, so either his brother also missed the flight and would be with him, or he saw his brother die in a plane crash and then immediately decides to head to the crash site and fake being in the accident? I mean it’s not impossible but still lol
It’s probably more likely the plane hit a building first, causing it to break up and he was ejected from the aircraft before the huge explosion.
This would be insane and quite a claim.
As opposed to surviving with only a slight limp and blood from wounds that stopped bleeding almost immediately with no medical attention…
Because that would be completely normal and not noteworthy
Anyways, do you need a new watch? I could sell you Big Ben for 20 quid, comes with a deed and everything!

Honestly yes. But if you are correct you will know pretty soon.
And that is why it is so unlikely. Anyone who has any flying experience will know. If you miss an international flight it is very much recorded. This has been the case since lockerbee so? And more stringent since 911.
Crash investigators will know within hours exactly who did or did not board the flight. And will announce it in a few days once they have made reasonable attempts to contact the families. So if he is faking. The newspapers will know soon.
Adding that to he had family on the flight. And is not seriously injured. Most of the blood on his cloths can come from rubbing scratches. So yes fast healing to the point you cannot tell. Very possible within an hour or 2.
There are unconfirmed rummers saying he opened jumped from the loading door just before the aircraft hit.
Not only is this very possible. But given the closed doors are structural on such aircraft. And would have remained open during the crash. Will show up notably in the investigation. So again will likely be confirmed in days.
Delays will come because while this is an India investigation. The UK and maybe other nations will be keen to help with the investigation. So some negotiating and sharing of expertise will happen.
people improbably survive plane crashes all the time. It’s not likely in a crash like this, but there was 241 opportunities for it to happen, 1 seemingly got lucky.
People survive falling out of planes or getting struck by lightning sometimes too. Shit happens in both directions.
Leaving a comment here for someone to reply to with more information
An article I noted but can’t remember where.
Said seat 11a is next the the exit at the front of the wing. And pointed out this is the most structural reinforced section of the aircraft. Due to the forces on the wing.
So he was fucking lucky.
Yeah that sort of luck is hard to believe, but so is winning the lottery. But it usually happens to someone.
Honestly, for him, I hope he was drunk. Otherwise, or even if he was, he’ll have fucking hard trauma forever. But studies show that you’re more likely to survive accidents and get less mental trauma if you’re drunk. (Although being drunk is often the cause for accidents, so discounting that…)
Anyway, incredible luck in such misfortune
Asking myself the same thing. The video of it going up in a huge fireball, I just assumed everyone onboard and nearby would have been instantly gone.

I can’t confirm it but I heard a claim that he leapt from the emergency door before it crashed
