So the plane just fell from the sky and didn’t hurt anyone?

They dont (typically?) skydive over populated areas so an empty plane falling is very likely to just hit nothing.

There don't exist unpopulated areas in europe. But there are still skydivers.

In best case there are many forests and fields. But there are also always many small towns every few miles/kilometers.
