Boy survives two-hour flight to Moscow hanging onto plane wing (http://www.en.rian.ru/russia/20070924/80694850.html)
A 15-year-old boy from the Urals suffered acute frostbite after riding the wing of a Boeing-737 plane on a two-hour flight from Perm to Moscow, Russian radio station Mayak reported on Monday.
After clinging on for the entire 1300-kilometer (808-mile) flight to Vnukova Airport, the boy, named Andrei, collapsed onto the tarmac. His arms and legs were so severely frozen that rescuers were at first unable to remove his coat and shoes, the radio station said.
Considering more vodka infused stories come out of Russia than Britney's ass, I'd be inclined to doubt this until we have offical word from Yakoff Smirnoff. "In Russia, plane flies you!"

If it's true (and I doubt it), he literally was on a wing and a prayer.
Or wind, as Furtherman calls it.

Yea, I'm not really buying this shit either. How fast does a 737 travel? You're telling me some little kid can hold onto the wing of a plane at speeds a commercial airplane travels?

Maybe he was in the wheel well. People have stowed away before in them. Although most of them die. But this was a short trip.

Well I don't hate him in a "He won't date me" kind of way like you do, but at least you hate him.

Called it.
Boy who flew to Moscow in plane's wheel well faces amputation (http://www.en.rian.ru/russia/20070926/80987468.html)
After running away from home last week, hitching a ride to the airport, and clambering into the wheel well of a passenger plane, Shcherbakov survived temperatures hitting minus 50 degrees Celsius (-58 Fahrenheit) on a two-hour flight from Perm to Moscow's Vnukovo Airport. Doctors said it was nothing short of a miracle that he survived the flight.
But the article says the Moscow clinic refused to continue treating him. That too, is cold.
