A viral video has captured the terrifying moment the rear door of a Russian aircraft suddenly sprang open soon after takeoff.
The now-viral clip, which was shared online by one of the passengers, clearly showed the visible gaping rear door on the plane.
The plane carrying 25 people, including six crew members, took off from Magan in the Siberian region of Yakutia at minus 41°C, when the rear door opened, causing the passengers to fear for their lives.

The now-viral clip, which was shared online by one of the passengers, clearly showed the visible gaping rear door on the plane.
The door, used to load cargo and luggage, is normally curtained off from the passengers at the back of the plane. However, the curtain can be seen blowing in the wind in the viral video.
The man filming the nightmare is heard swearing in shock at the open door behind him.

Following the incident, the pilot made a quick emergency landing at Magan in the Siberian region of Yakutsk. All passengers aboard the plane were reported “safe.”
A report said, “Fortunately, the 25 people on board, including the crew, were unharmed. Only the caps off some people’s heads flew into the white void.”
Recounting the quite scary incident, one of the passengers said, “A man sitting at the rear of the plane was nearly blown away.” He had just unfastened his seat belt. And he was almost blown out of the plane.

In other news, a woman who was filmed racially abusing a bouncer outside a cocktail bar in Halifax, UK, has been handed a police caution and sacked from her job.
Mum-of-two Justine Morrison, 51, spent the weekend in police custody after a video of her racist tirade towards the doorman was posted online.
The former part-time accountant and a man believed to be her husband, were kicked out of a cocktail bar in Halifax, West Yorkshire after upsetting the other customers.
In the video, she can be seen clapping her hands together in mock applause as she is ejected from the venue, and saying: ‘Oh my god you must be so proud. You’re working on a door.’
A man behind her tells her: ‘Come on, Let’s Go.’
But as they turn to leave, she turns to point her finger at the doorman and says: ‘You black man.’
As she walks away, she spits the word ‘Black’ at the doorman once again, before adding: ‘That’s why you get a name. Black.’
Ms Morrison has since admitted the offences and accepted a conditional caution, which involves taking part in a restorative justice programme and accepting responsibility for her actions.
The owner of Vine Bar, where the incident occurred, later confirmed she has been permanently banned from the venue.
A statement released by the bar read: ‘All the staff and management at Vine are truly appalled at the behaviour of the customer who racially abused our doorman last Friday evening.
‘This kind of behaviour towards our staff will not be tolerated and we are thankful that West Yorkshire Police took swift and decisive action.
‘Abuse of hospitality staff is unfortunately a problem that needs stamping out. No one should have to go to work and endure abuse; it’s just not acceptable.’
