Passengers are always the real hero’s in these situations and must be recognized
This is what meth does to people..
Meth and MAGA
No.
I would of FKD him up!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Way to go Passengers
The men on the plane should have attacked the man before he stabbed the flight attendant, their late attack actually makes them look like cowards.
Many fear of financial liability. The airline company will not provide financial support for legal fees if you get involved. It’s a weird time in our society.
The way they did it minimized risk to other passengers. As soon as he said he’s taking over the plane, he had dudes on his a$$. A whole line of men were prepared to take that guy out at that point. It’s not cowardice to use your brain.
moron lost his marbles, serves him right to get arrested LOL
I never had any crazy dumb stupid excitment on any flight I ever took. Not once in 50 years.
Why the blurred face? Every other video didn’t have it
Banned for life!!!
They need to ban him from all airlines
Unchecked mental illness.
God why doesn’t these happen on my flights even with no gun or weapon I have so many fun ideas to end this dude. I can only hope.in the future.
What about the Cauldron of genocide the serpent bloodline lit to put all the extra ingredients for the black goo in the sky?
What about speaking English instead of randomly hitting word suggestions?
These people aren’t idiots.,..they throw those little bits of nuttiness in there just to have a reason to plead insanity
Terrorist attack. We need to torture him and get information. See who he’s been talking too and working for.
I’d love to smash the CEO pretty-damned hard for giving away my seat in 2014 and ruining my business trip along with $1000 I spent on it! Effing United should never be allowed to continue, they’re the worst of the worst.
Dude probably snorted some meth inside the plane’s restroom. I don’t think he really mean to take the entire plane down the ocean.
Lisa Olsen looks and sound like she enjoys a good stuffing
Remember THERE ARE NO AIR MARSHALS ANYMORE 💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯
Men are soo convenient, right ladies?
Yes. That’s why I politely ask them to walk me to my car at night and make sure I’m safely home. I respect men greatly for how they protect me.
And look how calm everyone is while their lives are being threatened by a nut. The woke WEF plan is working perfectly…
The passenger said he is going to take over the plane. If you are in flight and some passenger says that and gets out of his seat to go up to the front of the plane, the other passengers cannot let the man do that, the pilots can lock the door to the flight cabin, the other passengers might have to fight the man, to keep him from trying get into the flight cabin.
NBC forget to mention his religion. He was a white Evangelical Christian terrorist.
Why so much cowardice amongst men? The attacker as well as those who responded after the stabbing. Pathetic.
Too many crazy folks running rampant. I will take my chances driving instead of dealing flying.
There were dudes waiting in line to restrain that guy.
Like that hysterical lady on The movie Airplane.
😂
omg
I don’t think this guy was a jerk, I think he suffered a psychotic break. That could happen to anyone.
I surprised the men on that flight didn’t give him a “break”
Yeah sure Jan…
I hope the men & women who jumped into action can be saluted & given an honor for their bravery. Thank you all! This irate passenger was obvious “disturbed” & posed a threat to all the lives on that plane. He should be banned from flying on any plane. He will be charged & most likely will also receive a psych evaluation. So many more disruptive folks on planes nowadays. We may be forced to institute more official security on planes. Not sure if ALL planes have an air Marshall, I believe they don’t. But disorderly, fighting & crazed passengers are becoming more frequent. Before something more drastic happens, FAA & Airlines need to examine the options for flight security beyond what’s in place now.
Come on bro. It was the men who jumped the guy
@fauxbro1983 Yes it was all men. For some reason I thought I saw a woman get up to aid them. My bad. No disrespect to those brave men!
A Trumper & his meth are soon parted. Sheesh 🙄
he looks like an Al-Queda high on something
Omg
I think disrupting passengers should be removed from the flight while in mid air.
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
The man obviously had mental health problems. Hoping he got the help he needed. Easy to judge until you’re standing in that person’s shoes.
Psychotic episode probably.
Pretzels, cookies, or nuts? Oh, totally nuts.
like what you did with the video
This why I never sleep on my flights. Even if its a 15 hour flight from nyc to India, I’m awake and watching.
Where’s the full uncut video?
A broken metal spoon? I wonder if he got it on board or the plane had metal utensils.
What is it with the Boston flights to LA?
Why does he look Muslim?
My only question is why? Why would you want to harm a bunch of people that you don’t know, why would you want to terrify people, why why why why. You are 32,000 feet in the air, that’s already leaving folks vulnerable. I don’t understand these kind of people. Why do some folks wake up and want to ruin the world with their mark of terror, why why why. Of he opened that door, the cabin would have decompressed and people would have been sucked out into the sky to their deaths. Why? For what? What did the world do to this man to make him this way? Why can’t people travel in peace without fear of death. Last time someone attempted to hijack a plane it ended in two towers collapsing and hundred of people dying. Good lord man. I hope he gets serious help, not jail but a licensed psychologist who get get into this man’s brian and understand what brought him to this day
I hope the people on the plane will be given medals by president Biden and united airlines for standing up to this dangerous man
crazy dems. but peaceful is what they say
Dude favors Charles Manson.
