Summary
A JetBlue passenger on Flight 161 bound for San Juan, Puerto Rico, opened an emergency exit door and deployed the slide while the plane was taxiing at Logan Airport, Boston, on Tuesday evening.
Witnesses say the man had been arguing with his girlfriend before acting.
Other passengers restrained him until police arrived.
The FAA confirmed no injuries, and Massachusetts State Police stated the man will face charges.
The incident caused flight delays but was deemed isolated with no public safety threat.
Do not give in to intrusive thoughts. We all have them, but don’t.
Internal dialogue:
“oh that sentence was the perfect time to storm out. Let’s storm out”
“but we’re on a plane. And we’re taxiing already.”
“fuck that it’s gonna be so dramatic, let’s go”
I’ve been there before. Stormed out of a car the person I was seeing was driving. Then I had an ~8 mile walk back to my car which was conveniently parked just outside her apartment. I had some very sharp words for her in my head as I walked. I devastated her in my mind. To shreds!
Then we got back together one or two more times after that before I finally called it quits for good. I don’t think we could really stand one another, but damn the sex was good.
Point is, I feel for the guy, but not on a plane.
Wait… are you saying you “stormed out” of a moving car? How?
Because I’ve done that once from a very slowly moving vehicle, my foot got stuck and I got second-third degree burns on my shin. as the car dragged me forward on the sand.
Several times, I’d wager. And with each being more succinct than the last.
We were stopped at a light.
It was poetry!
Oh thank god. Otherwise it might have been a tad over-dramatic
