A canadian woman narrowly avoided getting hit by several chunks of ice that crashed through her bedroom ceiling Thursday, likely dropped from a passing airplane, officials said. The Calgary, Alberta fire department said the woman was in her room and only a few steps away when debris "exploded" through her roof shortly before 9:30 a.m.. Fire crews found several chunks of ice about 6 inches long on the bed, along with pieces of shingles, plywood, drywall and insulation. Fire department spokesman Jeff Budai said his best guess is that the "frozen liquid" fell from a passing airplane.

The Transportation Safety Board of Canada is looking into the incident and confirms that a couple of airplanes were in the area at the time.

I'm glad I'm not living under any fly zones. Good God.

I agree! Make that *cold* fly zones.

Some years ago I read of a large chunk of yellow/brown ice that crashed through the living room ceiling of a couple while they were watching TV.
Turned out, a commercial jet at high altitude had a leak in the tank of its lavatory!
The leak created a large ball of frozen sewage, which eventually broke off.
I seem to recall that this incident led to major changes in how sewage on commercial aircraft was contained. I haven't heard of similar incidents for years, so apparently the changes worked.
But can you imagine a big block of frozen poop de jour crashing through your ceiling in front of you?

If we have to clean our cars before driving, planes should do the same! Thats so dangerous~!

i hope insurence will cover that
