A Yemeni old woman fainted when she saw for the first time an airplane taking off Thursday at Sana international airport, Yemen's official news agency (Saba) reported. 

The lady accompanied her daughters and sons to the airport to bid her granddaughter a goodbye as she was flying to the UAE, said the agency. 

When the family climb to the exit hall's assembly roof with unfortunate grandmother to have the last glimpse at their beloved traveler, she lost consciousness due to her fear of being crushed by the airplane as it was taking off, said Saba -- Albawaba.com
