Woman gets knocked over by power of jet

IT MIGHT HAVE seemed a good idea at the time but this was never going to end well.

This young woman decided to stand at the back end of a jet as it took off from an aircraft runway at Maho Beach on the Caribbean island of St Maarten on 4 April last. Naturally, she loses her grip on the wire fence separating her from the engines and takes what looks like a very painful bang on the head. (At the end of the video, she’s seem sitting up and giving details to a police officer so we presume she’s recovered…)
