A video that went viral on social networks shows the frustrated attempt of a pigeon trying to catch a 'ride' aboard the wing of a plane.
The video, which has more than 5,4 million likes on TikTok, shows the moment when a plane enters the threshold to start taking off, when the pigeon appears to be calm to continue its journey.
However, as the speed of the aircraft increases, it is possible to see that the pigeon is pushed backwards, yet the pigeon remains in the same position.
Watch the curious moment in the video below:

Even with little information about what happened, some people pointed out that the unusual fact occurred at Mexico City International Airport (MEX), mainly because the video shows a patio with aircraft from Mexican companies in the background.
So far, it is not known what happened to the pigeon, but the fact that he was not sucked into the plane's engine shows that he almost left that for the better.
