Airline passenger used emergency chute during takeoff 'as a test'

Wednesday, 4 November 2009

An airline passenger who opened a rear exit and slid down an emergency chute as the plane prepared for take off said he wanted to see if the safety systems were working.

Moreno Tavares Lizason jumped from the Athens-bound Cyprus Airways A320 jet in Cyprus moments after the captain ordered the crew to lock the aircraft doors.

He then climbed a perimeter fence at Larnaca International Airport, before police caught up with him.

Hahaha. That's hilarious.

The only thing this story is missing a flying pig! Although I'm sure the cops in the helicopter were there.

Some people are just to dumb for words to describe adequately.
