You, beautiful bastard. Well written.

Dude. If I lived anywhere near Troy, I’d take you to the bar for a cold one.

Agreed. Honestly I hope the dude doesn’t get convicted, just gets the right help.

True on all counts. There is no way he moved the door, and the fact that they didn’t suffer explosive decompression proves that.

You can always reach out to me for taillight stuff for your little girl!

For some reason I read your comment and pictured it in the style of Terry Gilliam’s Brazil. Can we get the folks over at TheAutopian.com to produce a short film about the now directionless City of Troy code enforcement clerk?  I don’t think Gilliam is doing anything nowadays....

I feel like you’re right on both counts.

Wow dude, have you put in an application to write here, because if not you are missing your calling. Or maybe a true-crime blog, either or.  

The best piece of fan fiction I’ve ever read.  Thank you.

I’m still in the greys, and will likely forever remain so, but:

I’m sure there are going to be a lot of people in the comments saying things like, “That’s it, I’m out of here! I’m never reading this site again!” First, grow up. Millions of people read this site, if you want to stop, go with god.

Came here to say this. There’s a big difference between being an entitled prick, and having a mental health crisis. The subduing was certainly justified, but this guy sounds like he needs professional help, not a twitter shaming.

Yeah, Social Media is an oxymoron. More like Anti-Social media. It’s like when you have a group of parents that all get together regularly and end up having 100x the drama, hate, and feuds than they did before they were all stuffed in a group because they were all parents of similar aged kids.

Yeah, I don’t know that it would be physically possible for one person to open that door with the cabin pressurized.

I talked briefly to a FA after seeing an unruly ex-passenger frog marched through an airport. He told me that disturbances on flights are becoming common. It was his opinion that things haven’t been good for people’s mental health for 2 years now and when packed into a small tube for a couple hours, things go sideways.

As he was able to move the door it must have been the door between the cabin and passenger area-  

Paranoid schizophrenia.

I dunno. The tweet seems pretty anodyne in and of itself.

Yes. And screw all the comparisons to BLM.
