"You're Gonna Die Up There" Woman Passenger Almost Sucked Out Of Window After Southwest Airlines Engine Explodes

Woman passenger is almost sucked out of a plane window after Southwest Airlines engine explodes and sends shrapnel into the glass before she is dragged back by passengers on flight of terror  

 A female passenger was partially sucked out the window of a Southwest Airlines plane and had to be pulled back inside after the aircraft was shattered by shrapnel from an exploding engine, it has been claimed.  The Boeing 737-700 had not long departed from LaGuardia Airport in New York City and was on its way to Dallas when the left engine exploded and shrapnel flew towards the window.   It was flying over western Pennsylvania with 143 passengers and five members of crew on board when the left engine suddenly exploded at 32,000ft.   The female pilot immediately diverted its course and flew towards Philadelphia to make an emergency landing. It arrived at 11.30am, around 10 minutes after the engine exploded.  According to other passengers on the plane, the shrapnel smashed a window next to a female passenger who was 'partially sucked through it' as the aircraft made its descent.  'One passenger, a woman, was partially drawn out towards the out of the plane, she was pulled back in by other passengers,' Todd Bauer, the father of another passenger on board, told NBC 10.   The woman was taken to hospital and the extent of her injuries is not known. A nurse and an EMT who were also passengers helped her until the plane landed and she was taken to hospital, they said. Source
