British man dies and several passengers are injured when turbulence hits a Singapore Airlines flight

A Singapore Airlines flight hit severe turbulence over the Indian Ocean and descended 6,000 feet in a span of about three minutes, the carrier said Tuesday, leaving a British man dead and more than two dozen other passengers injured.
The flight was then diverted and landed in stormy weather in Bangkok.
Authorities said the 73-year-old British man may have suffered a heart attack, though that has not been confirmed. His name was not immediately released.

    If you’re not using the toilet, stay in your seat and keep buckled in.

    I was on a flight from Hong Kong to Japan about 2 weeks ago. We went through turbulence that lasted over an hour. I can hear some passenger(s) were vomiting. While the PA announcement warned passengers to buckle in, passengers got up and moved around part way through that time period. Some used the washroom. Some got up to stretch their legs. Stewart's and stewardess warned passengers to buckle in but not all listened. Therefore I can see how unseated and unbuckled passengers can get hurt or die during a violent air turbulent event. It is unfortunate, but some just do not take the warnings seriously.
