Emergency exits are sealed due to pressurization during flight and very difficult to open after impact especially with how quickly explosions
and fuselage damage occur in crashes. It raises the question: how did the escape actually happen?

I’m pretty sure his brother was on the plane with him. So so sad.
Typical fakestream big bullshit corporation propaganda.
What do you call 241 Pajeets downed in a plane? Sh*t happens
Terrible news for Boeing,
incredible dad law pending
It should be mandatory to inform people that a airplane is a Boeing
Unbreakable.
My thoughts are with air India crew world wide, it’s never easy losing family this way , I know they are all in your thoughts today
The word is sabotage until then you have lost all support from me
I repeat again. Do not fly with Boeing planes. They are no more reliable. They killed their own engineers for speaking up. Boeing is in decline and the blood of those death people are on the hands of Boeing employers. They do not care about safety of passengers as proved in B737 max aircraft crashes in the near past.
Was it God or crowd psychology?
This is so terrible.
Landing gear was still up😮 and flaps not extended….All those lost souls gone…Heart breaking…
Vvvvv sad
OMG where was he, that it enabled him to survive? Full final destination vibe!
Our condolances from pakistan
