Airport panic: Bodybuilder jumps into running plane engine
Tengrinews.kz - 23-year-old bodybuilder Preslie Ginoski caused a stir at Sydney Airport by climbing into a plane's engine intake for a spectacular video, after doing push-ups on the runway in front of the spinning propellers, according to Daily Mail.
Fitness blogger Preslie Ginoski has attracted attention before, with his stunt at Sydney Airport last year also going viral. Over the weekend, he uploaded a video of himself doing push-ups and posing in a plane's engine intake, prompting a furious backlash on social media and a stern response from the airport authorities.

"Sydney Airport has zero tolerance for unsafe behaviour on the airfield, and we take all reports of potential safety breaches extremely seriously," Sydney Airport said.
However, Ginoski himself is sure that the situation is exaggerated. In an interview, he explained that the filming took place far from passengers and operating aircraft.
"I just wanted people to get a laugh about it. Like it's I've just got off the plane and I'm going to work out," he said.
Preslie Ginoski is sure that his viral stunt at Sydney Airport was completely safe, despite the strong reaction on the Internet. According to him, the plane was parked and not moving, and many viewers simply misunderstood the situation.
"A lot of people have missed the fact that it was totally safe. There's a lot of confusion about the fact that it was moving in the wind," the blogger said.
Ginoski noted that pilots and flight attendants often take pictures inside jet engines, and this is a common thing if safety precautions are followed.
The blogger decided to publish the video, which was filmed back in June last year, some time later, when he was no longer working at the airport. It quickly went viral, gaining more than 2 million views, but was soon removed by TikTok for violating community rules.
Jet engines have incredible power, creating a powerful flow of air when their blades rotate. This vacuum effect is so strong that it can suck a person from several meters into the so-called "swallow zone" in front of the wing - even if the engine is idling.
Preslie Ginoski is sure that his video should not be taken so seriously - he "just wanted to cheer people up and inspire people to exercise more."
"I do personal training and like making funny videos on TikTok and engaging young gym-goers," he shared.
Meanwhile, the airport is continuing to investigate the incident, and it is not yet clear what measures will be taken. Representatives of the airport emphasize that the safety of passengers and employees remains their top priority, and all violations are thoroughly checked.
