An engine fan blade broke off on a Ryanair flight shortly after takeoff in Greece last month, sending flying debris that shattered a plane window. The incident caused a male passenger's head to be sucked into the resulting hole in the fuselage.

Fellow passengers intervened and successfully pulled the man back into the cabin to safety. U.S. investigators from the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) released findings detailing the mechanics of the structural failure and the ensuing mid-air emergency.
