• Breast Implant Bursts During Flight

    A woman on an Aeroflot flight from Moscow to Los Angeles collapsed when her breast implant ruptured toward the end of the 14-hour flight on June 13, the Aviation Herald reports:

    Doctors diagnosed, that a silicone implant had burst due to pressure differential shortly before Los Angeles. Doctors said, that the implant was already damaged before the flight.

    Stories of collagen-treated lips exploding and inflatable bras bursting go back decades, but the Aviation Herald does not traffic in urban legends. It’s a very reliable source.
