A woman and her son met with a nasty surprise on May 9 when a mass of fecal matter fell from the sky and splashed onto their car and then onto their faces. The incident occurred at a traffic light stop in Kelowna, British Columbia, while the pair were in their vehicle, reported Canada’s Global News.
Right after they were splashed, Susan Allan and her 21-year-old son saw a large passenger plane fly over them.
The pair quickly realised that they had been hit with biowaste leaking from the aircraft, also known as “blue ice.” Usually, aircraft biowaste is dumped into special facilities at airports, but according to Transport Canada, leakage of biowaste is possible as it can seep out, only to land on unsuspecting victims below.
Susan decided to report their story to the media after their filed complaint was not resolved, reported Gizmodo.
“I just want everybody to know that although this seems like a surreal type of story, this happened to me and my son,” Allan told The Canadian Press.
“All we want people to know is that it was quite devastating to be covered in poop and I hope it never happens to anybody else.”
