An Extinction Rebellion protester glued himself to the top of a British Airways plane at London City Airport today.
The man, identified by Extinction Rebellion as former Paralympic cyclist James Brown, was seen clinging to the aircraft in a video streamed online by the protest group.
Mr Brown, who is visually impaired, was arrested at Heathrow last month after a protest which saw some Extinction Rebellion activists try to fly a drone near the airport.
The 54-year-old, who won a bronze medal at London 2012, glued himself to the top of a British Airways Embraer 190 jet.
“Here I am on top of a f****** aeroplane at City Airport. I hate heights, I’m s******* myself, I managed to get on the roof. I am so shaky,” he said in a Facebook video.
“This is all about the climate and ecological crisis, we’re protesting against government inaction on climate and ecological breakdown. They declare a climate emergency and then do nothing about it.
“In fact they go the opposite direction, they sanction the expansion of airports, Heathrow, Bristol and others. We can’t let this go on, we can’t have our cake and eat it.”
He later noticed security were approaching and said, “Oh good security are coming. I hope they don’t take too long because this is f****** scary.”
He was eventually removed. A spokeswoman for British Airways said, “We are investigating what happened as a matter of urgency.”

and they didnt taxi and take off??
Fine, my plane could use a hood ornament!
Leave him there and take a test flight up to 33,000 feet.
All this Crap because of global warming Crap LIES!
The article failed to mention he is mentally impaired. :-)
That beats the hell out of a Mack Bulldog.
My question exactly
Just increase takeoff speed
“That’s right, I’ve glued myself to this plane and I’m not coming down until....what’s that whining noise?”
CC
I have a more humane solution.
Lock him in a cell and play this video over and over and over again until he recants:

(George Carlin’s amazing video—The planet is fine, the people are f***ed!)
“Here I am on top of a f****** aeroplane at City Airport. I hate heights, I’m s******* myself, I managed to get on the roof. I am so shaky,” he said in a Facebook video.
If he cannot see, how does he know how high up he is?
Take him for a ride!!!
He would have had a nice view.
The only fear there is from global warming is fear.
I’m assuming London City Airport is looking for a new Security Chief?
How lame. A true SJW and GW soldier would have superglued himself naked to the plane. That would have been funny.
“To demonstrate the incredible adhesive power of Flex Glue, I’ve glued myself to the top of this British Airways Jet! Wooooo Hooooo!!!!!”
That’s another great rant by Carlin. Too bad he’s not still around because he’s be more pissed about people’s ignorance than ever. Thanks.
Lol
I guess the brain malfunction was his ticket into the para games.
“This is all about the climate and ecological crisis”
The mass hysteria has started. Inspired by a privileged, truant Swede, it is now spreading. Expect more as some people repeat over and over the words “climate emergency climate crisis world has 12.4 years we’re doomed Trump bad”.
