A Serbian businessman who was partially sucked out of a Ryanair aircraft after a window shattered mid-flight says the terrifying ordeal has left him too traumatised to ever fly again.

Ljubisa Karović, 61, was travelling on Ryanair flight FR1879 from Thessaloniki, Greece, to Memmingen, Germany, on 10 July when an apparent engine-related failure caused debris to smash the window beside his seat. The incident triggered rapid cabin decompression at approximately 15,000 feet, partially pulling Karović out of the aircraft before fellow passengers managed to drag him back inside.
