If you get too drunk on board an international flight, you just might be duct-taped to your seat like this man who was so drunk that he tried to choke a fellow passenger,
while screaming that the plane was about to crash. The crew and passengers on board the Icelandair flight from Iceland to New York City were forced to duct tape this
unidentified drunk man to his seat after he became violent. They also trapped the man¡¯s hands behind his back, bound his legs and feet together, and taped his mouth closed.
The unidentified man was reportedly screaming profanities, spitting on crew members and attempting to harm fellow passengers after consuming a large amount of liquor.
New York resident Andy Ellwood, who allegedly received the photo above from a friend on the flight, said the guy ¡°drank all of his duty-free liquor¡± and then just went crazy
about two hours into the journey. The man was arrested and taken to a hospital in Queens, New York when the flight landed at John F. Kennedy International Airport.
