The flight attendants should have realized that there was a problem when the guy started singing, "Tut Tut Tutsi, goodbye."

I'm sure there are Freepers who know much more about this than me. But I thought all the door and emergency exits on an airliner open inward only. So when the cabin is pressurized, it would take tons of force to force one of these open -- I doubt ten passengers could have done it.

I think he was looking for the restroom and got confused by the signs.

(sorta sarcasm, but who knows)

Why was this North African on a flight to Norway in the first place? Did some idiot give him a visa or admit him as a "refugee"? Sounds like leftist immigration policies at work here.

[lorrainer]

One word: "Duct Tape."

[RJBJR]

"We left Heathrow around 5:30 pm and had flown about half an hour when a giant of a North African went back in the plane and tried to push down the handle and release the main door. He seemed very determined," an Norwegian passenger who remained anonymous told VG.


He must have forgot his Voodoo doll and just wanted to go back and get it.

"The man was about two meters tall (6'-6-1/2") and weighed about 140 kilos (300 lbs).

Cool, I'm a giant.

[FreedomCalls]

...a giant of a North African ... (6'-6-1/2")
...He seemed to be on something, because he had a murderous look,
...[said] a Norwegian passenger

Nope, no prejudice here from the lilly white Norwegian who probably has never even seen a black man before. Europeans aren't racist. Nothing to see. Move along.

[RIGHT IN SEATTLE]

A twist of the neck.............send him back to North Africa!

No Pussy-Fuc&ing footing around!

Maim the bastards!

[The_Media_never_lie]

Wonder if he was FWII (flying under influence of Islam)?

[Elsie]

...confiscated a large black sack the man had with him.

When black sacks are outlawed..........

Only giants will........

have black sacks.

(Sounds like a GOOD place to GRAB 'im, if you want to get his mind off of whatever he's thinkin' about at the time!)

'Giant' passenger tried to open plane door.

Being a NY Giant fan, and after Monday night's game, I read this a whole different way.

[Thinkin' Gal]

"The man was about two meters tall (6'-6-1/2") and weighed about 140 kilos (300 lbs). He seemed to be on something, because he had a murderous look," another nervous passenger told the newspaper.

On a Jihad, perhaps? That would be consistent with a 'murderous look'. Was he reading "Jihad for Dummies" shortly before the incident?

They just need to build a brig in the back of the plane. Through passnegers that misbehave in it. Keep them in there until you reach your destination then turn them over there, or keep them in there and deliver them to the authorities when you finish the return trip.

If I'm on a flight, I'm gonna be pissed if we have to turn around because some dude is wacked out on some drug, or clausterphobic, or hasn't slept in 5 days, whatever.

Shove him in a soundproof brig in the back of a plane and forget about him till you get where you going....after an intensive search for any materials that could be bomb related of course.

Maybe outfit the brig with lifesupport machines to keep him alive after the stewardesses drag him from the mob of passengers mauling him because they're tired of being late getting where they're going.

DB COOPER lock ping hehehehehehe ;)

a simple stranglehold (arterial, not across throat) applied properly for approx eight to ten seconds would have put him to sleep. Easily done, especially in a cramped space like an airplane.
