00:00Did you know that a pilot was sucked out of the airplane window and survived? Incredible!
00:04On June 10, 1990, British Airways flight 5390 took off from Birmingham bound for Malaga.
00:12Everything seemed calm, the sky was clear and the crew was in control.
00:17Suddenly, boom! An explosion shook the cabin.
00:20The pressure blew out a window and Captain Tim Lancaster was sucked out.
00:23His body was left hanging outside the plane while co-pilot Alistair Achison tried to control the situation.
00:30The flight attendants clung to his legs and seatbelt, preventing him from being ejected completely.
00:36After 20 minutes, the co-pilot managed to make an emergency landing.
00:39Everyone thought the captain was dead.
00:42Surprisingly, the captain was alive.
00:44He spent weeks in recovery and returned to flying.
00:47This story is one of the most impressive in aviation.
