Anyone wanna guess at what they are doing there? Are they just trying to get away from thier poor country to live here?

What is killing them? The mechanics of the plane or the trip at thousands of feet in the air in cold climate?

Trying to ride outside the pressurized cabin on any flight of length is going to be fatal. There is also the possibility of being squished by the landing gear. Desperation is no excuse for stupidity...of course, these guys probably were not educated and didn't know that it gets 30 belo zero or lower at altitude...and that the atmosphere gets too thin to breathe.

At aprox 30,000 ft the temp will drop to about - 50deg C (-122deg F) People cannot comprehend the quickness that this temp will kill you. The big worry in my opinion is who the hell was doing the security or maintenance inspections!!!! this could be a bomb for ch....sake There should be some backsides kicked at least regarding the British Airways flight.
