Summary

Passengers on an American Airlines flight from Milwaukee to Dallas-Fort Worth restrained a Canadian man with duct tape after he allegedly attempted to open a cabin door mid-flight, claiming he was the “captain” and needed to exit.

The man became aggressive, injuring a flight attendant as he rushed toward the door.

Several passengers, including Doug McCright and Charlie Boris, subdued him, using duct tape to secure his hands and ankles.

Authorities detained the man upon landing, and the incident remains under investigation.

        Maybe try to reason about why an insane person might do that instead of assuming that everybody is evil?

          Feel free to reason it out with someone on your next flight as they do everything described in the article. Have fun.

            Hey perhaps you should get YOUR head checked… and hope that nobody is like you when you need some sympathy yourself to get through the day.
