Forget about snakes on a plane. How about the terror of giving birth to twins on a plane? It happened to a Russian woman, who can only thank her lucky stars that an obstetrician was on board when she went into labor mid-flight.
Irina Vasylkova, 25, started feeling labor pains during an internal flight in Russia, reports The Metro.
The flight crew hoped to reach their destination before the birth. "I told the pilot and he sped up the flight to make sure that we could arrive as early as possible," stewardess Christina Kondriatev recalled.
In the meantime, they made Vasylkova as comfortable as they could. (Um, can you imagine feeling even remotely comfortable in this situation? No amount of extra leg room could possibly accommodate a woman in labor!)
