Stowaway falls off Kenya Airways flight to London

A suspected stowaway, who is believed to have fallen from the landing gear of a flight into Heathrow Airport, has been found dead in a London garden. The body - believed to be that of a man - was found in Clapham. Police believe the individual fell from a Kenya Airways flight from Nairobi. Authorities in Britain are in touch with Kenyan officials to investigate the identity of the man. Reports compiled over the course of over 50 years show that survival rates for stoaways are fairly low. So why do they attempt it. CGTN's Wilkister Nyabwa explores just what happens when people attempt to stowaway on aircraft.
