Olivia Hristovska, a Qantas customer service employee, was working at the Sydney Airport when she decided to look through a gap in the air bridge.

However, unbeknownst to her, there was also a gap in the floor — leading to her falling straight through and onto the ground.

She sustained critical head injuries, a fractured spine, a broken clavicle, a collapsed lung, and was placed in a medically induced coma by doctors. She has since been discharged and remains under family care.

Shocking new footage has emerged of the moment a Qantas worker fell six meters through a gap in a damaged aerobridge at Sydney Airport, leaving her fighting for life.
