It is reported that the plane arrived from Algeria to Paris. After landing, during a technical inspection, a barely alive man was found in the landing gear niche, Le Matin reports.
According to the portal, the 20-year-old Algerian suffered severe hypothermia. He was taken to hospital in critical condition.
It is noted that at the altitude where commercial aircraft fly, the air temperature is down to -50 degrees.
Similar cases have occurred many times in the history of aviation. In 2017, it was reported that a 15-year-old teenager flew to the airport in the Nigerian city of Lagos, hiding in the landing gear compartment of a passenger Boeing 747.
In 2014, an American teenager survived a five-hour flight from California to the Hawaiian Islands while in the landing gear of a Boeing 767 passenger plane.
