It is not uncommon for people at poorly guarded airports in the region to climb inside aircrafts through its landing gear.
However this is incredibly dangerous and most people freeze to death once the plane reaches cruising altitude but some do survive.
In April last year Jose Matada fell out of a British Airways flight from Angola as it made its way into Heathrow airport after stowing away in the plane's landing gear.
