A man has died after falling thousands of feet from a plane as it landed at Heathrow airport.

portman avenueIt is believed the man had stowed away in the plane and landed on a car in the residential street of Portman Avenue in Mortlake in south West London.

Police are trying to formally identify him.

A spokesman for the Metropolitan Police said: “We were called to reports of a dead body at 7.55am yesterday. The victim had multiple injuries. The death is currently being treated as unexplained.

“Speculation that he may have been a stowaway who had fallen from a plane is one line of inquiry.”

No this is getting common now

They said he was frozen, made me think of the ending of terminator 2 when they freeze the liquid metal guy and he shatters.

Probably not, unless he'd "flown" before .....

I'm not sure if the insurance will cover that

Stowaways usually hide in the bit of the plane where the wheels go into, freeze due to the temperature, and then fall out of the plane when the wheels are deployed before landing

So I'm guessing it's a stowaway

"Astonishing: The body of the man,
thought to be a stowaway in his 30s and from North Africa,
was found on a car parked in a residential road near London Heathrow Airport and later taken away by authorities."



This will happen again, sadly
many cling to to the under parts of planes
just to get a better life than the Hell in Africa

seems ironic that 9/11's the falling man will probably be shown tomorrow
