Passenger Sharleigh told MailOnline: 'I honestly thought we were going to die and have never experienced anything like it in my life. The pilot said we may experience ''mild turbulence''... next thing the plane started ferociously shaking and suddenly just dropped. Everyone was screaming - my friend woke up from her sleep and we just held each other as we thought we were going to die.' (according to the dailymail.co.uk)

The pilots were forced to make an emergency landing at Rome's Fiumicino airport.
