Preferably, only huge amounts of air. But the airflow is so great, that ground crew that has strayed too close has been sucked up.
Air and everything else nearby.
The large opening of the compressor sucks in air to be compressed and burnt in the engine.

Air. Air and heat are the basis of the jet. The reason for this is that in the combustion chamber compressed air is ignited. The air flow pushes this reaction out the back of the engine and this= thrust.
In a jet engine, air is sucked into the front of the compressor where fuel is injected and mixed with the high-pressure air. This mixture is then ignited in the combustion chamber and the resulting high-temperature, high-pressure gases are pushed out of the exhaust nozzle to create thrust for propulsion.
a propeller is a prop, like a little fan in the front, a jet mixes the oxygen and gasses and is configured differently, like a cone and the air is sucked into it and it is much faster and more efficient and hotter.
Being sucked into a jet engine would likely result in serious injury or death due to the extremely high speeds and forces involved. The individual would suffer from severe trauma, burns, and potentially dismemberment from the rotating components within the engine. It is not survivable in most cases.

Jet engines work by igniting a fuel-air mixture to produce a force. First, air is sucked into the front of the engine and pressure is built in the compressor, a device made up of many tiny fan blades. After the compressor, the air is mixed with fuel. This mixture is ignited and the gases are forced out of the back of the engine. The action of the moving gas produces and equal reaction in the opposite direction, propelling the engine (and the airplane) forward (Newton's third law).
Air is taken in at the front and propelled out the rear and there is jet propulsion - in the simplest of terms.
The concorde crashed due to a scrap of metal from a dc-10 left in the runway being sucked through the engine and creating a HUGE fireball.
This would decrease the efficiency of the engine because less air would be able to enter.
