His helmet came off as he was sucked in, and it jammed the turbine just enough to save him.
Pretty famous incident in the Navy, and used in training for deck safety ever since.
Wanna blow your mind further, check out the dude who partially ejected from his plane, then his copilot had to land on a carrier with dude hanging out of the canopy. He also survived.
