Teen plane crash survivor 'didn't feel a thing'

(CNN) -- The father of a teenage girl who remarkably survived a plane crash off the Comoros has described how his daughter was ejected from the plane into the Indian Ocean.
"She said she was ejected from the plane," Bakari said, according to Agence France-Presse.
"She didn't feel a thing. She found herself in water," Paris-based Kassim Bakari told French radio RTL after speaking to his 13-year-old daughter Bahia who was recovering Wednesday in hospital in Moroni.

A local surgeon said Bahia was doing well in hospital. "Her health is not in danger. She is very calm given the shock she suffered," Ben Imani told Reuters.com at Moroni's El Marouf hospital. The girl is expected to be flown home to France on a ministerial plane, AFP reports.

The head of the rescue team in the Comoros also told RTL the teenager survived astonishing odds. "It is truly, truly, miraculous," said Ibrahim Abdoulazeb. "The young girl can barely swim."
