Although the aircraft's engine was immediately turned off when the person disappeared, the man died instantly.

Stupid reporter. It would seem obvious that an object without a digestive tract cannot ingest something. Still had to go for the snappy headline though...:roll:

LOST pilot episode?

Unlike the blades on the engine, the worker wasn't very...sharp.

[Itchrelief]

Did they just put up stock footage of any old jet engine? Aren't 737 engines usually in an underwing nacelle?

I believe that 'ingested' is the correct term for when a jet engine sucks up a foreign object.

Near 6:00 p.m. that evening, airport personnel started to clean the scene and examine the aircraft's engine.

Tells you how much a soul is worth over there :laugh:
