A Ryanair flight turned into a nightmare after a cabin window reportedly dislodged shortly after takeoff, leaving a passenger's head and shoulders hanging outside the aircraft as it plunged 9,000 feet during a rapid decompression. The incident sparked panic on board the Germany-bound flight as oxygen masks dropped from the ceiling and the aircraft made a rapid descent of around 9,000 feet before safely returning to Thessaloniki, Greece.
Although many people have been searching for "Ryanair plane crash", the aircraft did not crash. The flight landed safely after the emergency, but one passenger required hospital treatment.

According to flight tracking data, the aircraft had been airborne for only around 10 minutes when it suddenly descended approximately 9,000 feet (2,700 meters).
Passengers later recalled hearing what sounded like an explosion moments before the cabin rapidly lost pressure.
