A passenger on board a Lufthansa commercial plane suffered a gruesome death mid-flight.
During the Thursday flight from Thailand to Germany, passengers watched in horror as blood “erupted” from the man’s mouth and nose.
The unidentified 63-year-old German man was seen boarding the Airbus A380 in Bangkok shortly before midnight.
One witness, Karin Missfelder, told Swiss German outlet Blick that the man appeared visibly sick, with “cold sweats” and “breathing much too quickly.”
At first, she said, his wife claimed he wasn’t feeling well because they had to rush to catch the flight.
But after watching the man for a few moments, Missfelder — who is a nursing specialist at University Hospital in Zurich — said she informed a flight attendant that he needed to be examined by a doctor.
A young Polish man answered the call, but he reportedly only asked the man how he was feeling, felt his pulse, and said he was OK.
“They gave him a little chamomile tea, but he already spit blood into the bag that his wife held out to him,” said Missfelder’s husband, Martin.
Soon, blood started “erupting” out of his mouth and nose.
“It was absolute horror, everyone was screaming,” Martin
