Luckily no one was hurt, but why take a penguin? They can't be great pets, anyway the penguin probably said, you are not boxing me in.

Have fun it's saturday. .

How else do you expect a penguin to fly?

“Helicopter crash in South Africa blamed on ‘unsecured’ penguin”. Really? Who doesn’t secure a penguin before they’re airborne?

I thought this was a joke at first since I’ve never heard of a penguin being blamed for a helicopter crash. I guess he didn’t want to leave his homeland.

I hope the passenger who dropped the box has insurance for a helicopter replacement.

The penguin didn’t want to go.

Was it freed?

Gentlemen, when flying always secure your penguin. You never know what chaos it might cause, as demonstrated by this post's story.

“Before landing please secure all tray tables and penguins.” I know I’ve heard that a hundred times.

Yesterday it was the helicopter’s “Jesus Nut.”
Today it’s the helicopter’s “Unsecured Penguin.”

So many ways a helicopter can crash.
