Police said they responded about 1:30 p.m. on Dec. 12 to the airport where they said the man jumped a perimeter fence and climbed the wing of a commercial plane.

Several passengers aboard the flight, including Brooke Knight, posted video of the incident, showing the man falling from the wing before he was arrested.

“I know we’ve go De-icers on the wing, but do we have a De-methhead, too?”

At least he waited till the plane was on the ground...

Without appearing to be too harsh, I think that we should have pictures of him being fed into the engine... Feet first...

The County emergency SWAT brought no nets in which to catch the guy if he jumped off the wing, which he did. The wing is ~ 15 feet off the ground. These emergency crews have to reexamine their passenger egress procedures if the slide chutes don’t work ...they came unprepared..now the guy will sue everyone for negligence... These rescue guys never apparently ran a whatever everything possibility scenario thru the computer... duhhhhhhh

Weirdness is right. The whole state is bonkers, what with the new smarmy governor who stole the election there.
