I Have Seen A Video Of A Flight Crew Member Sucked Into Jet Engine,

but never imagined that this could happen, the vacuum created by the air intake of the engine sucked in the empty container when a cart carrying it got to close to one of the 747's engines,
the 747 jet, owned by Japan Airlines, was nearly ready to leave Los Angeles airport, one of the plane's passengers, Carol Van Schellen, told how she was waiting for the plane to taxi down the runway when she noticed police cars suddenly appear, 'I looked out the window and there was a big luggage container sitting in the engine, 'I don't know why the pilot hadn't noticed it but I think we were about ready to go and he announced that we had a slight problem with Engine No 1.' well that is one way of putting it!
