The Ryanair flight is said to have experienced violent turbulence as it travelled from Berlin to Milan late on Wednesday night.

The pilot was forced to make an emergency landing to help save the 179 passengers and six crew members on board due to the severity of the weather.

Eight passengers and one member of the crew were injured during the ordeal, police confirmed.

One woman was left with a head wound as another suffered a serious back injury after reportedly being thrown against the cabin walls.

Three people were taken to the hospital in Memmingen for treatment including the toddler, Bavarian police said.

Upon landing, all of the shaken passengers were checked for injuries by emergency services.

A passenger told BILD: “I’ve never been scared before but at that moment, I thought the plane was going to break apart or roll over.”

According to various local reports, many travelers were violently jostled because there were no warning signs before the turbulence hit.

There was also no order from the pilot before the turbulence struck, it has been claimed.

Another scared flyer said the flight became “chaotic and dangerous” once the pilot announced the emergency landing.

Experts believe the plane may have encountered a “supercell” storm during its journey.

The freak weather events are made up of a highly dangerous rotating thunderstorm which can span up to 30 miles.

They often come with tornado-like winds and can cause serious damage if they impact on homes or vehicles.

A Ryanair spokesperson told The Sun: “FR8 from Berlin to Milan on 4th June diverted to Memmingen after experiencing some air turbulence.

“The captain called ahead for medical assistance and the aircraft landed normally.

“To expedite getting passengers to their intended destination, we organized alternative transportation from Memmingen to Milan that evening, along with a replacement flight the next morning.

“We sincerely apologise to passengers affected by this diversion.”

Elsewhere, storms damaged several homes in Ulm, Baden-Wrttemberg.

In the Donaustetten district, strong winds ripped roofs off multiple homes.

Fire officials suspect that a small tornado or waterspout tore through the region and caused much of the damage.

The German Weather Service (DWD) is continue to investigate the destruction, according to German news agency dpa.

It follows a deadly plane crash in Germany which left two dead last week.

The disaster saw a small aircraft crash land into a home and spark a devastating fire upon impact.

A 71-year-old woman, believed to be the pilot, and an 84-year-old were confirmed dead after the horror accident on Saturday afternoon.
