A Ryanair passenger was nearly sucked out of a window during a flight from Greece to Germany.<\/p>\n

The 61-year-old man is believed to have pulled into the slipstream after the window broke when the engine behind it failed on Friday. <\/p>\n

He was only saved as his wife held him by his legs, local media reports.<\/p>\n

The couple were on a Boeing 737-8AS flying from Thessaloniki to Memmingen.<\/p>\n

The person was taken to hospital after suffering shock and friction burns from the icy air outside.<\/p>\n

Ryanair said: \u2018A Ryanair flight from Thessaloniki to Memmingen on Friday morning (10 July) returned to Thessaloniki shortly after take-off when a passenger window dislodged inflight.<\/p>\n

\u2018The aircraft landed normally and passengers returned to the terminal. One passenger requested and received medical assistance on the bottom in Thessaloniki.<\/p>\n

\u2018In an effort to minimise any delay, a alternative aircraft was arranged to bring passengers to Memmingen, which departed Thessaloniki at 9:53 local time this morning.\u2019<\/p>\n
