Man ‘splattered’ with poo in his own garden after plane dumps toilet over him

She explained: "I know a number of incidents happen every year with frozen sewage from planes, but this wasn't frozen and his whole garden was splattered in a very unpleasant way."

"He was out in the garden at the time, so a really horrible, horrible experience."

John Bowden, the councillor for Eton & Castle, called it a "one in a billion chance", according to the BBC.

He added that the warm summer weather meant the poo could have "come out as a more 'fluidy' item."

Cllr Davies said that the resident - who has not been named - decided to not pursue an insurance claim, explaining: "Obviously he wasn't going to do that for the sake of a couple of garden umbrellas, in terms of bumping up his premium, so he's just sort of had to take it on the chin."

The name of the airline has not been revealed, but she said it was "based a very long way from here."
