Well, if your “mini van” is a really weird shape with a rough dimension of around 2.5’x3.5’ in size, I guess that part of the story is accurate.

The big green area is just the fuselage surface area behind the wing to body fairing that blew off when the fuselage skin failed.

I’m with BC on this one as far as possible cause goes.

I will add, that had that failure occurred a bit higher up on the fuselage and ruptured that R2 doorway. This story may not have had such a happy ending. They probably still would have landed, but more than likely missing a few pax.
