A wild video just hit the scene, capturing the heart-stopping moment when Ekin-Su Culculoglu, that Love Island firecracker, found herself riding a plane that thought it was a fireworks show â engine explosions, flames, and sparks lighting up the night sky.
The 29-year-old reality sensation, cruising back to her UK base with beau Davide Sanclimenti from the wilds of Turkey, thought she was in for a regular flight. Oh, how wrong that flight turned out to be! The plane decided to pull a stunt, forcing an emergency landing in Antalya right after it waved goodbye to Bodrum airport.
Fasten your seatbelts, folks, because brand new footage now showcases the planeâs left engine throwing a fit â a fiery, blazing fit.
Passengers turned temporary pyrotechnicians were caught on tape, unleashing a collective âoh my godâ as a fire puff did its thing on the wing. Imagine, youâre just sitting there, minding your own business, and suddenly, the airplaneâs like, âHey, letâs have a BBQ party on the wing!â Cue the screaming.
A grandpa who had his grandkids on the flying fiasco said, âThose kiddos were scared outta their wits!â Anthony Hoyleâs the name, and heâs not mincing words. His precious grandchildren were âfrightened to death.â
One canât-miss sight was the dramatic fiery puff out of the passengerâs window. Imagine taking a scenic flight of flames â oh, the things this generation gets to experience!
âHey, so, we just survived an action movie,â Ekin-Su tweeted, tagging Jet2 for making her flight a rollercoaster ride. âFour engine explosions, flames, and sparks â Hollywood, take notes!â
The planeâs detour to Antalya wasnât part of anyoneâs vacation plan. But at least it came with an apology and some swanky hotel rooms. Jet2, the airline behind this sky-high spectacle, said, âHey, weâre sorry about the fire show, folks. We landed in Antalya as a safety dance, sorted out some hotel digs for yâall, and got you home next day. Partyâs over.â
Back to that power couple, Ekin-Su and Davide. Theyâve been a rollercoaster themselves, breaking up and then being spotted leaving a party together â talk about a âplot twistâ moment. They even scored their own TV gig, visiting each otherâs turf in Italy and Turkey, and eventually shackinâ up in 2022.
So, there you have it, folks. From fiery flights to reality TV romance, this is one sky-soaring saga you wonât forget anytime soon. And remember, folks, next time youâre on a plane, donât be surprised if it starts to channel its inner fireworks artist â just another day in the wild blue yonder. âïž
