A 61-year-old man narrowly survived after a cabin window dislodged on a Ryanair flight shortly after takeoff from Thessaloniki, Greece, causing rapid cabin decompression. The passenger was partially sucked out of the aircraft but was pulled back inside by his wife and fellow passengers, with his seat belt preventing him from being ejected. He suffered neck, shoulder, and friction injuries and was hospitalized. The plane returned safely to Thessaloniki, and passengers later continued their journey on a replacement aircraft. Greek aviation authorities have launched an investigation into the cause of the incident.
