    VIDEO: Air Canada Passenger Flips Out

    [youtubetp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XxtyisoNBaI[/youtubeFrom the YouTube description:
    I don't know what happened here. But this happened on my Air Canada plane ride to London, England in December 6th, 2007 from Toronto.

    At 3:15 sec he says "f'in white people". I personally believe that another passenger somehow provoked or encouraged this persons paranoid behaviour.

    What is important is that everybody arrived safely.

    I am no medical doctor so I have no idea what this man was going through, but I feel that he seemed more concerned for his own safety? I think he was scared. I think it's a very fascinating phenomenon.

    My partner and I decided we should videotape this in the interest of sharing the experience we went through on this plane with those interested.
    Ladies and gentlemen, this is your captain speaking. We have a small problem.
    All four engines have stopped. We are doing our damnedest to get them under control.
    I trust you are not in too much distress. —Captain Eric Moody, British Airways Flight 9

    At least he was saying "he was going to die" and not "your going to die".

    There is no way that another person could have PROVOKED this. No one goes on like that without some sort of mental condition.

    Seen that look a few times. Without being there I have to say an EDP (Emotionally Disturbed Person) but I have had a few diabetics that combative.

    On my recent ZRH-JFK flight on Swiss I had a very asthmatic women who was flipping out while we were still at the gate about how there was no air conditioner and the cabin was way too crowded. Turns out she had reserved the bulkhead but was not given it and the people sitting behind her had a cat under her seat!

    Luckily she had a rather calm flight but sitting at the gate was a bit of a fiasco.

    wow. never had a combative diavetic, but once got a call to assist nypd with some homeless dude they got called to pull out of some downtown office-building lobby. we really didn't want to take it, but the dispatcher was relentless. we got it at 30 minutes until our tour was over. that dude stank, and i mean really stank!
    it is mathematically impossible for either hummingbirds, or helicopters to fly. fortunately, neither are aware of this.
