In a shocking footage, a passenger with no mask aboard the Easyjet flight from Belfast, Northern Ireland, to Edinburgh, Scotland, started to cough on her fellow passengers, yelling about death when she was debarred from the flight. Amid the ongoing coronavirus pandemic that has claimed over 1.12 mn lives globally, a woman passenger not only violated the flying safety guidelines but in a bizarre incident jeopardised other flyers’ well being by flouting mask rule.
In a nearly 42 second footage emerged on Twitter, the unidentified lady shouted, “Everybody dies, you know that?!” on board the plane as she coughed, sending the respiratory droplets straight onto faces of the seated passengers. “Every f----ing body dies, whether it’s corona or not! Everybody dies!” She can be heard hurling profanity in the clip that stunned the internet. Walking down the aisle, the idiosyncratic flyer keeps yelling the same warning, "Everybody dies, that’s the only thing that’s real!” The nonplussed travellers lent stares in the way of the frustrated woman as she squawked same lines over and over, until a cabin crew approached her, instructing her to move out of the airbus, immediately. Flight's pilot was also spotted near the concourse witnessing the incident.
Internet slams 'irresposible' behaviour
Seemingly divided over opinions about masks protocol, users dropped comments some terming the lady as vile while others objecting to the crews’ behaviour for asking her to deplane. “So she got booted off what I surmise is an international flight, after making a reservation, waiting at the airport, waiting in line at the gate, getting boarded, luggage loaded (but not unloaded) and seated for refusing to wear a thin cotton mask?” one opined. "This is why I won’t fly yet because if I was on the plane and someone started this, I’d most definitely get arrested,” another rebuked. “Everybody does die, but everybody doesn’t have to die from a virus we could prevent by being responsible in public,” said one another commenter, making scoff emoticon at lady’s behaviour. “I’ve seen people claim that stay-at-home orders are acts of tyranny,” one other said.
