Maybe it’s an angel who didn’t get their wings?
Was it David Bowie?

The fall isn’t so bad. The landing is a tricker...
Is it wrong that the first thing I thought of was that video for the Weather Girls song, “It’s rainin’ Men”...
Skyfall.
Clark Kent?
Given the extremely low outside air temperature at typical commercial airline flight levels, I’m sure he had already frozen to death by the time the gear was lowered.
What a way to go.
THE GODS MUST BE CRAZY..........
That first picture is the paperboy screaming at the pilot he wants his two dollars.
It was probably an attempted terrorist attack gone wrong (or right?).

>>A Massachusetts prosecutor says it’s likely that a North Carolina teen whose mutilated body was found in Milton fell from the sky after stowing away in an airplane wheel well.
Norfolk County District Attorney William Keating says police searched the area Friday in Milton where 16-year-old Delvonte Tisdale was found last month, and they found sneakers and a shirt matching clothing his family said he’d worn.
He said the items were found along a path a Boston-bound plane would have taken while approaching Logan International Airport. Keating said authorities believe Tisdale hid in the airplane.
“It appears more likely than not that Mr. Tisdale was able to breach airport security and hide in the wheel well of the plane without being detected by airport security personnel,” Keating said.
Police found no evidence of foul play but did find trauma consistent with a fall from significant height.
One notes that this never happens to aircraft that are about to land in some communist or other third world hell-hole.
The article mentioned the fact that he was found near a convenience store, an upscale lingerie store and a place selling Chinese potions. Now, Watson, what could all this mean? This must be important or they wouldn’t have put it in the article. Hmmmmmm.....a convenience store. He was probably going for a slurpee. An upscale lingerie store? Must have had some money and was buying ladies underwear. A Chinese potion store? Probably looking for an aphrodisiac. That’s it then, Watson. We simply look in the missing persons for a rich, thirsty, horny transvestite. That’s half of London, but it narrows it down some.
If you fall off a cliff, get rescued by Superman, and he asks “did you vote for Obama?”...you’d better give him the right answer.
Matt?
Attention Bob Costas: This man would still be alive if there were no planes!
