Stowaway's Body Lands on London Suburb

The body of a man who attempted to hide in the landing gear of an airplane headed to Heathrow Airport came crashing down on a residential street in a London suburb, reports the Telegraph. The stowaway likely got on board in North Africa but died during the trip, either because he was crushed by the landing gear or froze to death in the arctic temperatures. His body fell out when the pilot lowered the plane's wheels ahead of landing.

“I just felt sorry for the guy," says one local resident. "Whatever he was trying to escape from must have been horrendous to do that.” (More Heathrow Airport stories.)
