Passenger Nigel Court said he was terrified to watch people not wearing seat belts - including his wife - fly upward. "She crashed headfirst into the roof above us," he told a reporter. "People were screaming," said Henry Bishop of Oxford, England. A Sri Lankan couple said they were thrown to the ceiling when their seat belts failed.
