Oh like 35 years ago my brother was a fly around mechanic on a DC-8 for the charter airline Capitol Airlines, and he would tell me story’s about 3rd world people stashing kids into the duffel bins and trying to start build their cooking fires on the floor of the cabin, so this is not surprising to me.

Travelling around the Yucatan in late 70s on bus, nothing for long time & then at some path out of the jungle would be a few people waiting for the bus. You got on with whatever you, the driver and maybe a helpful passenger could load. Crops on the top or live chickens, or box of peepers on a little gir’s lap. The most interesting was a group of hunters with 2 deer carcasses, guns and dogs. The driver made them put their dogs in the side comparments (which dogs never stopped barking). They brought the guns and the carcasses inside the bus and threw them up on the luggage racks. The bus driver was all upset. Down the road we stopped at a store, the driver got off & came back with a newspaper. He barked some orders at the hunters and they all arranged the dead deer with the newspapers under the bloody bodies. Everybody was satisfied.

I hereby apologize for mocking "Snakes on a Plane" as a silly move based on an unrealistic premise. The premise of the silly movie seems more reasonable. It is my assumption of basic intelligence in people that was unreasonable.

PS. Does this count as a Darwin Award?
