Posted by SMAZ on Mon Feb 8 07:27:00 2010 Dead man found in landing gear of US jet in JapanTOKYO (AFP) – Japanese authorities have found the body of a man in the landing gear of a Delta airliner that arrived in Tokyo from New York and said Monday they were seeking US help in identifying him. The man, who was of dark complexion and dressed only in blue jeans and a long-sleeved shirt, was carrying no passport or personal belongings. A mechanic found the body in the landing gear bay of the Boeing 777 after Delta Flight 59 landed at Tokyo's Narita International Airport at about 6:05 pm local time Sunday, a Chiba prefecture police spokesman said. "Doctors say he probably froze to death and that he suffered a shortage of oxygen at an altitude of more than 10,000 metres (about 30,000 feet)," said another police official, Narita airport station spokesman Yoshimi Ichihara. "We found no passport, no bag and no personal belongings. If he carried any luggage, it must have all dropped out when the airplane opened up the hatch of the landing gear bay above the ocean before it landed." Japan was seeking help from US police to identify him, he said. |

Do you have any idea what 3000 psi of hydraulic pressure can do? He was lucky he only froze to death instead of being crushed. The hyperthermia and hypoxia was probably somewhat euphoric. |

I did, and it makes as little sense as it did before. You're only "lucky" if you survive the ordeal; doesn't make a difference how you die. Logic eludes you indeed. |

Nothing better to do tonight but troll I see. Sigh. So I`ll indulge you for a bit. The individual was doomed to die anyway from his location on the aircraft. In my humble opinion, it would have been slightly better to die of hypoxia then being crushed to death. That was the logic involved in my statement.Goodnight |

Nothing better to do tonight but troll I seeSo go find something else to do and stop trolling. I don't need to read stuff about which is the best way to die. The individual was doomed to die anyway from his location on the aircraft. In my humble opinion, it would have been slightly better to die of hypoxia then being crushed to death. That was the logic involved in my statement What's the difference? You're dead either way. Funny how you jumped from "lucky" to "doomend" . . . save the backpedaling and self-justification. |

On airliners.net it was discussed that he likely got on the aircraft in Lagos, Nigeria (which was a location that this aircraft flew to a few days prior to the man being found as the aircraft rotates from Lagos-Atlanta-JFK-Tokyo and back). He apparently was in a location of the aircraft where he wouldn't normally be discovered unless a very thorough search of the plane was conducted. Apparently Lagos has some of the worst airport security in the world and there have been other instances of this on flights departing it. |

We should refuse landing rights to any airline the flies to Nigeria or interline with an airline that flies to Nigeria. The lack of security there is getting out of hand. |
