Teen Passenger ‘Commemorated’ Midair Alaska Airlines Blowout With Selfie

A teenage passenger whose shirt was sucked off his body Friday night when a door plug aboard Alaska Airlines Flight 1282 blew out in midair, took a selfie with his seatmate as a memento, the woman wrote on Instagram. In her post, “Lego master” Kelly Bartlett said the 15-year-old, named Jack, “had been sitting in the middle seat of the fated row.” “His mom was in the aisle seat, and thankfully, no one was in the window seat.” A shirtless and windburned Jack sought refuge next to Bartlett, where he remained until the plane touched down safely, Bartlett wrote. “But not before Jack wanted a selfie ‘to commemorate the experience!’”
