Falling stowaway ...

Stowaway dies after falling from Kenya Airways plane, plunging into London garden

I guess this happens every so often.

Though not common, stowaways have in the past plunged to the streets of London as planes lowered their landing gear. In September 2012, a 30-year old from Mozambique, Jose Matada, died after falling from the undercarriage of a Heathrow-bound flight from Angola.

Maybe they need to put netting above London.

Wonder if anyone on the ground ever got killed by a stowaway falling out of a plane?

The netting comment reminds me of the Chinese company Foxconn, who installed netting to deal with a rash of workers committing suicide by jumping off the building.
