Did you know a woman once survived a fall from over 30,000 feet without a parachute? Her name was Vesna Vulović, a flight attendant from Yugoslavia, and her survival is considered one of the greatest miracles in aviation history.
In 1972, Vesna was working on a commercial flight when a bomb exploded on board, tearing the plane apart while it was cruising high above Czechoslovakia. The aircraft disintegrated in midair, and passengers were thrown into the sky. Vesna was still inside a section of the plane when it fell from an altitude of about 30,000 feet toward the ground.
Against all odds, she did not die on impact. The section of the plane she was trapped in landed on a snowy, forested mountainside, which helped soften the fall. Trees and thick snow slowed the wreckage before it hit the ground. Even then, her injuries were severe—she suffered broken legs, ribs, a fractured skull, and internal injuries. Doctors were shocked that she was alive at all.
What made her survival even more unbelievable was that she had no memory of the fall itself. She slipped into a coma and later woke up asking for ci******es, unaware that she had just survived something no human should be able to survive. After months of recovery and rehabilitation, she learned to walk again, though she lived with lasting physical effects for the rest of her life.
Her story was officially recognized by Guinness World Records as the highest fall survived without a parachute.
