As the camera panned, the shocking sight of the missing door became evident. Reports indicate that Brazilian singer and songwriter Tierry and his teammates were among the passengers on the flight, which took place on June 12, traveling from Sao Luis to Salvador.

The video also reveals that luggage and instruments were stacked near the door, which was blown open in the small passenger aircraft. At one point, clouds are visible beneath the aircraft, adding to the surreal scene.

However, what stands out most is the passengers’ apparent calmness despite the strong winds and objects flapping around them. Thankfully, no injuries have been reported thus far.

The video was shared by Breaking Aviation News & Videos, accompanied by the caption, “The aircraft of Brazilian singer and songwriter Tierry safely lands at Sao Luis Airport after the cargo door opens in flight.”

According to a tweet, the incident occurred on an Embraer-110 operated by NHR Taxi Aereo, which was transporting Tierry and his band members after a show in Sao Luis, Maranhao.

Since its sharing, the video has garnered 1.4 lakh views and 847 likes. Comments from viewers express shock and disbelief at the passengers’ calm demeanor despite the hazardous situation. One user remarked, “I’m beyond shocked everyone just stood very calm, including the cameraman.” Another user humorously pointed out, “Mans still looking out the window like he ain’t got a whole open door to look out of!!!!!!” A different user added, “Must have been quite a breezy ride,” while someone else commented, “Rather scary!”
