TEEN OPENS EMERGENCY DOOR, JUMPS FROM PLANE AFTER LANDING

A teenager has been detained after opening the emergency door of a plane and sliding down a wing onto the tarmac minutes after touching down in San Francisco. The boy, 17, shocked passengers on board the Copa Airlines flight from Panama City as he flung the door open before leaping out on Tuesday. The plane hadn’t parked – it was still taxiing to the gate. He was confronted by construction staff working nearby and held until police arrived to arrest him. The boy, a U.S. citizen, was not harmed. Passengers said the teenager seemed fidgety and anxious throughout the flight and that he had acted very quickly, making it difficult to stop him. It was not immediately clear why the teenager jumped from the plane and ran.
* Because he couldn’t wait to smell the sweet freedom air of the United States of America?
* Or maybe because the in-flight movie was “CHiPs”?
* Ask the middle-aged lady sitting next to him who wouldn’t shut up the entire flight.
* Moron! There wasn’t even an inflatable slide to slide down!
* On the bright side, it’s nice to know those emergency doors really work.
