More than half a century ago, stewardess Vesna Vulovi\u0107<\/strong>, who was just 22 years old and had been working as a flight attendant for only a year, became the sole survivor among 28 people<\/strong> in the plane, miraculously surviving a fall from 10,160 meters<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n “I was chopping wood in the shed when I heard an explosion. I ran outside and saw people flying through the air. By then, people were already running down the road, frantically shouting that a plane had crashed nearby,” recalled forester Bruno Henke<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n “I somehow managed to dodge and ran down the road. Suddenly, from the forest on the left, I heard a woman’s voice calling out. I ran even faster, following the sound. Dusk was setting in, snow was falling, and the ground was slippery. I climbed on all fours to the spot where the voice was now clearly audible. Under a piece of the airplane fuselage, like inside a shell, two women’s legs were sticking out. I leaned in and saw a blonde girl\u2014not only alive but strong enough to cry out,” he told reporters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n “With great effort, I freed her from the metal debris, being extremely careful not to move her too much. In the military, I learned how crucial first aid is for the injured and how it can do more harm than good if not administered properly. When the ambulance arrived, we placed the girl on a stretcher and handed her over to the experts. Our job was done,” explained Henke.<\/p>\n\n\n\n “Hey, people. Oh, world, everyone on planet Earth, listen and believe: a girl fell from 10,000 meters<\/strong>, from a plane that exploded, and survived<\/strong>. She landed alive! And she still lives and will live,” wrote Ekspres<\/em> special correspondent Stevan \u0160evi\u0107<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The cause of the crash of the JAT<\/strong> plane on the Stockholm\u2013Belgrade route<\/strong> remains a mystery to this day. One theory is that a bomb was placed on board by Croatian nationalist terrorists<\/strong>. Another suggests that the plane simply broke apart mid-air. A third theory claims that it was mistakenly shot down by the Czechoslovak military<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n According to some calculations, Vesna cheated death seven times<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n But fate had other plans.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Vesna was inside the tail of the plane<\/strong> as it fell. She was young, exceptionally strong, and healthy<\/strong>. The tail hit a densely forested slope<\/strong>, bounced off like a ricocheting bullet<\/strong>, and only then did Vesna get ejected<\/strong>, slamming into a thick layer of snow at around 100 km\/h<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Despite everything, in her agony, she had the will and strength to call for help<\/strong>. And so, on that cold January evening<\/strong>, near the Czechoslovakia\u2013East Germany border<\/strong>, in a small town once inhabited by Lusatian Serbs<\/strong>, fate gave Vesna seven lives<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n![\"\"](\"http:\/\/serbiantimes.info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/image-198.png\")
