Drama on Lufthansa flight from Bangkok to Munich: German dies in front of passengers. Shortly after take-off, over the Bay of Bengal, the plane turned around, as a flight log from the industry portal flightradar24 shows.

The tragic reason: a death on board. As Blick reports, some passengers noticed a 63-year-old German man before take-offs, whose health was said to be poor. The man spat blood into a bag shortly after takeoff.
