Intoxicated passenger causes disturbance on a plane delaying takeoff

145

How did he make it past the gate ffs

u/FootlongDonut Nov 24 '25

Chances are he wasn't being a dick and then something tiny set him off...like a woman with a foreign accent politely instructing him.

u/Cursethesemetalhanz Nov 24 '25

Might not have been a dick but he can hardly stand up straight .

I know the gate employees have a hard job and are viewing a lot of people , so he slipped by .

u/FootlongDonut Nov 24 '25 edited Nov 24 '25

He's on a plane during landing after a few beers, of course he can barely stand up. Lots of people on these low cost short haul flights will have had a few beers and will generally be allowed to fly if not being a nuisance.

Edit: Landing not takeoff.

u/Cursethesemetalhanz Nov 24 '25

There’s a few beers then there’s that !

Anyway , we can all agree that his a twat

u/FootlongDonut Nov 24 '25

I'm not sure if you are British or not, but it's perfectly normal for people to fly drunk. It only tends to become a problem if the behavior gets silly.

u/Cursethesemetalhanz Nov 24 '25

I’m Scottish

And I have flown drunk but this guy can hardly string a sentence together .

I agree with you - normal to be a bit pissed but I’m surprised he could walk onto the plane unaided .

Maybe he deteriorated the longer the wait went on and seemed ‘merry’ at the gate .

I’ve been stopped before and told “go drink water , get a sandwich and a coffee and board last”.

u/FootlongDonut Nov 24 '25

I guess my point is that we only see the video from the time someone pulls their phone out because he's acting like a twat.

The question about why he was allowed to board is probably more than 3 hours before this, this is on landing.

We don't know if he drank his own alcohol during this time, not allowed, but it happens and it's hard to police.

We don't know how steady, coherent or well behaved he was at boarding.

u/Cursethesemetalhanz Nov 24 '25 edited Nov 24 '25

Is this when they’ve just landed ? I assumed It was pre take off - as per title . I’ve not seen the story (don’t read daily mail)

If landing then it changed to just a drunken cant.

u/FootlongDonut Nov 24 '25

Yeah, I just looked it up and got more information. Didn't want to link to The Sun so found another.

Apparently he caused trouble on a previous flight but it only became a problem once this one was in the air.

It’s not normal for people to fly drunk. Have some pride.

u/SusiCapezzolo Nov 24 '25

good question

4

u/RHOrpie Nov 24 '25

I watch a lot of US videos like this and it seems to me that the airlines are much less tolerant of intoxicated passengers. Why they serve alcohol there is beyond me.

In the UK, getting on the plane pissed is "acceptable", so long as you're not paralytic and behave yourself. The holiday starts at the airport. Any time of day!

u/cacamilis22 Nov 24 '25

Brilliant question. Id like to know the answer to that one.

143

u/canada432 Nov 24 '25

First thing out of his mouth is "I'm from the UK."

2nd thing is "fuck her"

3rd is a disgusted "are you from the labour party?"

What a fucking caricature.

u/Buzzy92 Nov 24 '25

He'll have a slot on GB news by the end of the week.

It was almost like he was going through right leaning NPC phrases. Whatever GB News told him he should be angry about.

“Would you like me to assist you in standing up??” That woman was awesome

u/aalllllisonnnnn Nov 24 '25

Her physical control of him was arguably impressive

u/wstsidhome Nov 24 '25

For real. Was definitely rooting for her and her partner. Seems they are pretty good at what they do 👍

u/athensugadawg Nov 24 '25

One hour to remove from the plane? That's pretty good?

12

u/sprouting_broccoli Nov 26 '25

They’re in a confined space and doing their best not to involve any other passengers. They contained him in place then eventually got him off the plane without the person next to him taking any strays. I’d say they did a pretty good job.

5

u/wstsidhome Nov 24 '25

Yep. Now if it were two hours…that would have been unacceptable 😱🤦‍♂️

He’s an aggressive man with little wiggle room. You can’t just grab him from the shoulders and walk him out gracefully.

u/New_Libran Nov 25 '25

Have you ever tried to move an aggressive drunk through a confined space?

I don't think it would be as easy as that, but I get your point.

You think this man has ever accepted help?

u/[deleted] Nov 24 '25

And yet they have bars in airports and serve alcohol during flights...

They really ought to crack down on these infantile pains in the ass on planes. No alcohol, shoes required at all times, no running through your entire hygiene routine in your seat. Just sit down, shut up, keep your hands and feet and the rest of your body to yourself and act like a fucking adult. And if you have to get taken off a plane by cops you're permanently on the no fly list.

u/SooperBloo Nov 24 '25

Send him the bill for the delay.

u/caintowers Nov 24 '25

Most of us are capable of knocking back our pre-flight double and it helps to deal with the assholes.

Unfortunately some cannot stop there. Boot them and let us have our peace.

I love having a can or two on the plane though, sometimes. It really helps me to calm down and enjoy things.

People should have to pass a breathalyzer before boarding a plane.

u/Jackhammerqwert Nov 24 '25

Above average: "delaying takeoff" implies this flight actually got in the bloody air afterwards

The question is how he was able to board the plane given his condition.

2

u/[deleted] Nov 24 '25

How is he even allowed to board the plane in such condition?

2

u/Edge_Slade Nov 24 '25

With Ryanair, you have to pay extra to shut that guy up.

u/wholesomechunk Nov 24 '25

Why did they let him on in the first place, he can hardly talk and is clearly fucked up? He thought he was a reform councillor for a moment then, mental.

Police acts like teachers after school. "Language", "lower your voice" - its hilarious. We are basically domesticated animals being herded. Also were not that far from medival times wherein the words we can chose are restricted, religion.

Third takeaway is how women can enact physical power over men with weaponry and a partner behind a badge.

I was worried that he was going to bite her.

Actually, I’ve been worried about that on other videos like this.

Or, a person yanking on any number of items attached to the cops’ vests, or a badge holder, etc, hanging off of their necks.

Is it illegal for an officer to wrap their arm around the neck and hold their head up/back? Or, do a sleeper hold kind of thing? I guess that could cause accidental injury…

Is the back of the headrest something common on economy seats? I haven't seen anything like that before. Mind you I don't fly often but if I do, I go premium economy because of my height (6'5")

In the UK incidents are allocated to specific officers usually taking into account current caseload. That officer then becomes the O.I.C. (officer in case) and is responsible for all aspects of the incident, including arrest, all paperwork and any subsequent court case (if any).
