How scary is this? The guy was sleeping during his flight when he was suddenly awakened by a roaring noise. He looked up and noticed a football sized hole in the top of the airplane. He could see the sun shining through. Fortunately, the plane landed safely.

Is this not every flyers worst nightmare? A gaping hole in the roof is just not a good thing. Kudos to the passengers for remaining calm.

I’m curious to know what in the hell caused that hole. It seems like an odd location to have appeared. Did something hit the aircraft?
