Accounts from passengers, as reported to The Sun, reveal that those on board heard a deafening noise when the aircraft’s window shattered due to debris from the plane’s engine.

Moments later, a 61-year-old passenger was ‘sucked’ out and ended up being torn from his seat; he was supported by his wife, who grabbed hold of him and prevented her husband from being thrown out of the aircraft.

Ryanair has already confirmed the facts in a press release sent to Reuters. The airline states that the passenger received immediate medical attention as soon as the plane made an emergency landing in Greece.
