Shocking video has shown the aftermath of a terrifying incident on a Ryanair flight where a passenger was nearly sucked out of the aircraft.

The plane had been travelling from Thessaloniki to Memmingen on 10 July when one of the windows in the cabin fell out.

One passenger, who is reported to be from Serbia, was left nearly outside the plane when the pressure led to him being partially sucked through the window.

This almost led to the passenger being pulled out of the aircraft, while his wife was reported to have clung onto him to keep him inside the cabin, Greek news outlet ProtoThema reported.

Meanwhile, oxygen masks reportedly dropped from the ceiling during the incident, with one eyewitness claiming that the man's head was taken 'completely outside the plane' during the terrifying incident.

Now, new footage has shown one of the engines from the stricken aircraft, as well as the section of fuselage with the window missing.

The clip shows the inside of the engine, with one of the blades in the jet missing while others are dented and warped out of shape.

The metal lining the inside of the jet engine before the blades also appears to have been damaged, appearing dented and ripped, before the clip then pans over to the missing window.

During the ordeal the man's wife was understood to have held onto his legs for some five minutes to keep him inside the cabin, before bystanders came to help.

Information obtained from the flight tracking website Flight Aware says that the plane had been in the air for around one hour.

It then returned to Thessaloniki Airport, with the pilots making the decision to go back to Greece due to safety concerns.

A passenger on board the flight called Christina told Radio Thessaloniki: "The masks dropped and there was a strong smell. The head and shoulders of one passenger were outside the window. Fortunately, he hadn't taken off his seat belt."

It has also been reported that a 61-year-old Serbian national has been treated for friction burns at hospital.

In a statement shared with LADbible, Ryanair said: "A Ryanair flight from Thessaloniki to Memmingen on Friday morning (10 July) returned to Thessaloniki shortly after take-off when a passenger window dislodged inflight.

"The aircraft landed normally and passengers returned to the terminal. One passenger requested and received medical assistance on the ground in Thessaloniki.

"In order to minimise any delay, a replacement aircraft was arranged to bring passengers to Memmingen which departed Thessaloniki at 9:53 local this morning."
