Naked man causes Virgin flight to return to Perth

[OZDUCK]

Hopefully he will have very restricted movement after the court case. Knocking a crewmember over sounds very much like assault

Dared to do so? Tiktok stunt?

I'm sure some people cheered him on until he knocked over the cabin crew.

*sigh*

Ok who was on board to tell us the lurid details.
Not funny with the assault of a crew member and then the aircraft went back to Perth so everyone was inconvenienced.
I hope he gets ordered to pay a 6 figure sum and is banned from flying for a few years.

Possible mental illness?

Looks like flight was already delayed due to late arrival of aircraft

Yes @drron that was my first thought and then I thought alcohol or something else.

Possible mental illness?

Seems likely, given the AFP took him straight to hospital. From the ABC article:

"AFP officers arrested a man after he allegedly ran naked through the aircraft mid-flight and knocked a crew member to the floor," an AFP spokesperson said. "The man was transferred to hospital for assessment, where he remains."

Sounds like mental illness although that's not on the top of my to do list.

I know there's been complaints about people dressing too casually at Perth, but this takes the cake!

Even naked he could have been better dressed than some on the Bali flights.

Birthday suit is not part of the dress code.

It was obviously the knocking-over of airline staff which got the guy in trouble.
I’ve been nekkid under my clothes every time I’ve flown, and never got into this sort of trouble.

Actually sounds like quite a sedate Virgin flight from Perth…

Certainly some interesting personalities on those flights!

Possible mental illness?

Or just PERfect behaviour?

PERth is a pretty remote city if you look around the world.
i was hoping an eye witness from that failed flight could get us more details.

 

[Ouabain]

Did he manage to get into lounge though?

I guess the net was down, and they just wanted live entertainment.
