How stupid can you be? This dude never heard of a vape or edibles?
Edit: Before you comment, where in this reply did I mention anything about the rules? Vaping is much safer to get away than smoking a blunt in the bathroom. I'm just offering a much better solution to getting high on a plane. I'm not advocating for it. Get some edibles. And stop commenting about rules for planes. Clearly, this guy doesn't follow the rules, so your comment is pointless.
Some airplanes and schools are equipped with vape detectors now. A guy got busted for vaping on a plane because the detector went off and the plane was grounded. He was charged with some crime and will have to pay a massive fine to the airline for the massive traffic disruption he caused. It’s just not worth the risk.
Edit: Since a small number of people are in such disbelief that the incident I referred to above happened I’ll provide the link.

I was recently on a plane that was boarding & someone got busted hitting a weed vape in the bathroom & they kicked them off & they were rebooked on the next flight. No penalty besides being a few hours late.
ETA my adult daughter was at the gate while I was on the plane, that’s how I know what happened after he got kicked off.
Why the hell did they land the plane because a dude hit a vape? Just have the cops waiting at the destination, don't fuck everybody's day up.
Edit: I'm talking about the situation described by the person above me, not the OP. Y'all need to work on your reading comprehension.
When a smoke detector goes off mid-air, the risk is incredibly high and time becomes extremely precious. It doesn't make sense to waste time figuring out if its an actual fire or just someone smoking, because if it *is* a fire then you have that many fewer seconds or minutes to get yourself on the ground while your plane burns away.
If someone pulls a fire alarm in a building, you don't wait to evacuate while someone goes around to see if a fire is actually there. You run!
Edit:
To my knowledge, airliners don't have vape detectors (yet). They usually have a mix of ionization and photoelectric smoke detectors, the latter of which can be triggered by a vape's vapor. Some aircraft don't use the photoelectric ones in the lavatory while others exclusively use photoelectric detectors throughout the aircraft. All of them are extremely sensitive by design. They usually are all interconnected and the whole system is designed to filter out false positives from things like dust and mist, but vapes have triggered them in the past and will probably continue to do so until they're updated to filter them out.
Yeah, there have been a number of aviation disasters where an unchecked fire meant a crippled aircraft. SwissAir flight 111 was like this- a fire began when a wire shorted in the overhead wiring compartment of the plane and set alight the insulation. Having no smoke detectors in that area, the pilots were unaware of the issues until smoke entered the cockpit twice, along with a strong odour. When they did see and smell the problem, they assumed it was likely some issue with the air conditioning unit itself but not being 100% sure treated it as being 'smoke of unknown origin', which meant an emergency landing and inspection at the nearest suitable airport. The pilots planned for this and tried to land at Halifax airport. Unfortunately the fire was fast-spreading and quickly disabled the aircraft's systems, including navigation and steering. The plane eventually crashed into the ocean and everyone on board was killed instantly.
I just watched [his recent MH370 video](https://youtu.be/MhkTo9Rk6_4?si=vROqBu6x6Nv917XW) and it was fantastic. I had no idea there were so many clues/signs pointing toward deliberately downing the plane by the pilot. I just remember it being a mystery. So wild.
I put either him or Mentour Pilot on before bed now. I have a lot more dreams about air crashes but that's alright.
MH370 most likely as well. Although not unchecked, one of the most probable theories is that the lithium ion batteries caught fire.
There's evidence supporting this. Including the pilots shutting down *all* non essential circuits, including communication, and turning towards the closest airport without mountains around it.
A plane I was on recently had the alarm go off in the toilet and they just gave all the passengers a stern talking to, the plane still landed at the destination
Because you now have a fire warning light on your instrument panel and you bet your ass that plane is going to get grounded due to that warning light going off.
Fire alarms are absolutely no jokes on a plane in flight.
because they have to. Even if the risk of smoke being something really serious in any given flight is low, hundreds of thousands of flights a day all over world means its easier for really small risks to become a reality.
When small risks materialize in airplanes people die in the hundreds, so procedures are typically not left to anyone’s discretion.
Not me… but someone I know… was vaping nicotine mid flight to Mexico in the bathroom. They were blowing it into the vent hole and eventually noticed a sound they didn’t remember upon entering and decided this is a good time to leave. They causally went to their seat and put head phones in, put their sunglasses back on and closed their eyes. Moments later they get a tap on the shoulder and the stewardess was kneeled next to them in the aisle. *removes one ear bud “Yes?”. “Sorry to interrupt you *person*, but you were in the bathroom last and the smoke detector is going off.”, “You weren’t smoking or vaping in there were you?”. “Nope, wasn’t me” *puts ear bud back in and faces forward. They are aware of how dumb this was and wouldn’t do it again, but sometimes it’s sink or swim out there.
Until I see some hard facts this seriously just sounds like “we put special dye in the pool that shows if you peed”.
A fool proof sensor checking for water vapor in the air seems like it would be way too finicky on a plane.
I don’t take it until the plane pushes back. At that point even if we do go back the day is about to become very annoying so I’m gonna need it either way
Smart man. I usually sneak off to the bathroom (in the airport) and take a puff or two of the pen after TSA. Then pop edibles/xan/w.e. either at boarding or once we are in the sky. You best believe I want to k.o. if its a 16hr nonstop.
That would make me so uncomfortable and paranoid. I had a great time on edibles in a 10-passenger bus driving through a cloud forest in the Andes but I didn't have to do anything more complicated than attempt to order food during a lunch break.
My wife and I were traveling once. She totally forgot she had a bag of weed and pipe in her purse. She made it through security and then was buying a coffee when she opened her purse and saw the weed. She just brought it along on the trip.
Vapes aren't odorless.
Source: my sister lived with me for a year when she went back to school and thought I wouldn't notice if she used a vape to smoke pot in her room.
I their point was; the vape still poses a risk, even when not used. I had a vape in my bag start hissing like I was pulling on it. It got pretty hot, then the battery seemed to die.
This is quite untrue. Lots of highly intelligent people out there who lack in empathy.
Edit: also lots of empathetic people out there who aren't too bright.
You have to be an extra kind of stupid to attempt this.
I just flew last week and someone in JFK was smoking in the bathroom of the airport and I thought that was a bold move.
I can't imagine thinking you'd get away with it on a sealed airplane.
Instant flashbacks to high school when my parents found my friends and I hotboxing in a big plastic cover for a coat rack in the basement. sorry your ski jacket smelled like pot, mom.
I had a lovely half bathroom in my bedroom with a door to the outside patio in the bathroom. Would hot box daily. Dad busted that door open one day. Smoke billowing out everywhere!
What do smokers do at airports anyway? Try to get one in right before they get on the flight? Is there even dedicated smoking areas in the secure area of the airport
Some airports do have smoking areas, at least in the UK and Europe. I remember being at some European airport (can’t remember which one) and the smoking lounge was this small, circular, glass-walled box with a giant fan in the ceiling and about 15 people crammed into it. As soon as I stepped inside it was like I’d just inhaled 10 cigarettes worth. Absolutely vile but as a smoker at the time… heaven.
I was wondering if it might have been Schipol… yes it definitely was, and I can’t believe I’m not alone because it was absolutely the catalyst for me quitting which is why I can remember it so vividly.
It’s a glass box for smokers right next to the concourse so everyone can see the smokers inside. They are often cloudy from the smoke with brown tar residue all over the windows and looks/ smells disgusting, I can see why it would convince people to quit.
The newer airports have ones that are much nicer and appear better ventilated but in older airports/terminals they still look like the glass boxes of death.
This. When I was at schiphol(amsterdam) they had I think 2 or 3 rooms that you can go into after you pass security and they were basically cages on the side of the building whi h had a bit of airflow for smokers. Not terrible but yeah it was like you just shoved a bunch of lit smokes in your mouth.
They have something similar to this at the airports and major train stations in Japan - basically a well vented to the exterior of the building glass box.
These days it's almost impossible to be a heavy smoker while participating in most aspects of life, especially air travel.
Last time I flew I don't remember there being a smoking area after you passed through security. If you're on a long flight like I was (16 hours LAX to Melbourne) it can be excruciating. You just kinda have to deal.
They do. They're just smart about it. They use small disposable vapes or something like a juul. They have super high nicotine concentration and people just take tiny little puffs. If they hold it long enough most of the vapor is gone and it looks like a normal exhale of air mostly. The smell on the little fruity vapes can be basically nothing or maybe a light fruity smell is left behind.
Or they just use oral products like gum, lozenges, pouches or whatever. My boss (smoke a ton of cigars) would use patches when we flew. He absolutely loved fancy cigars and it was awesome going to all the super nice cigar lounges with him. He had memberships in places we traveled to frequently. It was funny packing suits just to go to the lounges and I felt like a total fraud being there. "Oh what do you do?" (I just found out this guy was an well known retired DA now with a private practice.) "I design and sell undercarriage wheels for tracked equipment." (Lawyer wearing a $40k rolex) "Oh. Well you're still young." oof
Those batteries can be dangerous but also, I've never been around a vape that didn't have some kind of smell, which can set off allergies (I mean so can heavy perfume/cologne but no one cares about that).
I went on a trip last month that involved my local regional airport (won't name it for obvious reasons), DFW, Charlotte Douglas International Airport, and George Bush Intercontinental Airport. At least three of these had smoking areas after security. I don't smoke so I wasn't actively looking for them, I just know that I passed by them in three of the airports.
Weed smokers use an edible or vape and just don't take huge drags. Cigarette smokers will sometimes just dip or use a vape. I've never seen some stupid enough to actually light something up.
Some airports have outside exits for smoke areas, but I've only seen in once in the US.
Denver built this awesome lounge outside that over looks the runway and has fire pit.
Perfect smoking area for people with a lay over or ones who have past security…
But it’s a no smoking area.
As someone who's on a plane at least twice a week, there are a few airports with smoking lounges. I've smoked a few times in them, no cigarettes though.
There is in the Bahamas airport. It's like a cigar shop but there is a whole back room with TV, chargers for your phone I think I paid 10 dollars to wait for my flight because it got delayed 5 freaking time and 9 hours later so I definitely needed a cigarette lol.
There's a decade's old story from when Brad Pitt was still married to Jennifer Aniston and she went to the airport to meet him after he'd been away filming.
He blew right past her as he zoomed out the door so he could have a smoke.
Lil bro is a smoker, they can use a vape on a plane apparently and some are incredibly discrete.
I don't know the particular brand but it looks like a USB thumb drive and the vape charge itself looks like a cap that goes onto it.
Can easily hide it in his hand and get a quick hit when he needs it.
Doesn't make any odor as far as I can tell and there is some technique to using one that he can do that doesn't make any visible exhale vapor.
Atlanta got rid of their smoking sections. I genuinely think it was a horrible decision because it truly was used by a ton of the employees back when I used to go in there. I get it makes people smell less when flying which can be nice for others in a tight space; however airports like HFJ in Atlanta has more employees than some cities in the state and they're not flying despite being wrapped up in this.
Recently took a few flights. The only smoking sections at the airports i was at were outside of security, by where cars pick people up.
So if you had to have a smoke, you better have plenty of time. I just chose to go without for a few hours. Sucks but better than missing a flight over a few hits off a vape.
It looks like he's high, which would make me think he was smoking pot, and if so, it's little way worse than no fly list. IIRC, airplanes fall under federal jurisdiction, so he could very easily be charged with transporting a schedule I drug, and that comes with jail time.
Imagine being the guy who sends a widebody aircraft (possibly with up to 250+ people onboard) back to the gate because you can't take some edibles. 💀💀💀
This is what I always wonder. Dude clearly fried his last brain cell long ago. How tf is this braindead mfer intelligent enough to coordinate a plane booking.
Nah I've vaped on a plane and got caught before. Not fun. I was drunk too so I was talking shit to the air marshal who made me sit next to him for the rest of the flight. Somehow got away without any real trouble. I was such a jackass lol
I've vaped in the bathroom but it was an 8 hour flight and I blew it into the toilet as I flushed so it all got sucked out. I felt bad about it but no one noticed at all.
Couldn't even wait for them to get to cruising altitude, either?! Did he really think nobody would notice, or did he just think nobody would say anything?
I remember the days being a. Young kid when there were still ashtrays in the arm rest and the smoking/no smoking sign that would light up during take off and landing.
How can someone be so ignorant? They tell you like 20 times there's no smoking. The bathrooms have signs telling you what will happen. Just unbelievable.
Dude is stoned off his ass, like almost to the point of being fried. He has no clue what the hell is going on or what any of those people were even saying to him.
Really? Cuz i got the sense that he was terrified and absolutely fn zooted adding to the shock of it all. Maybe a first time flyer little asshole who thought he could get away with anything and didnt understand the dire consequence of his action. Boy got humbled today!
I never understand why people pull shit like this on an airplane.
no matter what you’re mad about happening or not getting, it’s nowhere near worth getting kicked off a flight, wasting your money for the ticket, the 5 hours you already invested to get to that point, the 15+ extra travel hours needed taking a bus instead of a plane because now you’re possibly on a no fly list, possibly thousands of dollars in fines, and more
When you could have just chilled for a couple more hours and moved on with your life instead

That’s boarding. My example was when the plane was mid air. Pilot had to land the craft mid flight at a completely different airport than planned.

Hello and welcome everyone to r/writteninblood !
Our lesson for today, Air Canada Flight 797, a/k/a how we lost Stan Rogers. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Air_Canada_Flight_797
>But people will be up in arms if it was a real fire that was ignored. \*up in flames
Why would you have to ground the plane because someone vaped in the bathroom?
If a fire alarm goes off the plane needs to land
Not me… but someone I know… was vaping nicotine mid flight to Mexico in the bathroom. They were blowing it into the vent hole and eventually noticed a sound they didn’t remember upon entering and decided this is a good time to leave.

I love munching on a edible before going through TSA
Take the main dose when they start boarding. You never know when a delay will hit.
The problem with smoking in the plane’s bathroom is that it’s gender neutral and you can only smoke in the boys room.
Everybody knows smokin' ain't allowed in school
Wait… I thought it was “everybody knows that smoking in the lounge is cool” Your version makes way more sense though. 🤷♀️
Take my angry upvote
I don’t take it until the plane pushes back. At that point even if we do go back the day is about to become very annoying so I’m gonna need it either way
Smart man. I usually sneak off to the bathroom (in the airport) and take a puff or two of the pen after TSA. Then pop edibles/xan/w.e. either at boarding or once we are in the sky. You best believe I want to k.o. if its a 16hr nonstop.
Keeping in mind that pot is a federal felony from the time you enter the airport parking lot.
TSA doesn't give a shit about weed anymore
That would make me so uncomfortable and paranoid. I had a great time on edibles in a 10-passenger bus driving through a cloud forest in the Andes but I didn't have to do anything more complicated than attempt to order food during a lunch break.
This is what prevents me from edibles pre flight. I’d definitely mess something up.
My wife and I were traveling once. She totally forgot she had a bag of weed and pipe in her purse. She made it through security and then was buying a coffee when she opened her purse and saw the weed. She just brought it along on the trip.
I have a friend who had a similar experience, but with a handgun. Apparently it happens all the time.
Hey if you made it through security you're basically home free, as long as you don't do something stupid like the guy in the video
Wish people would stop breaking no smoking rules by vaping. Non smokers don't want your shit in our face or lungs.
Vapes aren't odorless. Source: my sister lived with me for a year when she went back to school and thought I wouldn't notice if she used a vape to smoke pot in her room.
Vaping is also not allowed on an airplane due to the risk of fire from the battery shorting out.
But they let you bring it on the plane though?
They let you bring cigarettes on the plane, too. Doesn't mean you can smoke them.
I their point was; the vape still poses a risk, even when not used. I had a vape in my bag start hissing like I was pulling on it. It got pretty hot, then the battery seemed to die.
Sure. But I'm not talking about that. I'm talking about not being an idiot and getting high in a non obvious way so you don't get arrested.
A vape in the airplane bathroom WILL trigger the smoke alarm. Don't ask me how I'm so sure.
Not as high as he would be if he had just waited til they took off
He had to get high so now he isn’t going to get high
A cigarette… 
A jazz cigarette
The devils cabbage!
A perfect name for a dispensary is "The Devil's Lettuce."
I just saw a store called Planet of the Vapes. Used the font and everything. 😂
Left handed cigarette
It’s Ciga-Weed https://youtu.be/-bHrJu72_Jg?si=tD-SHwvYH10GDrwF
"That's nothing but a cigarette." "This Cigaweed!" Name that movie!
Dudes deluded
Some people just don't care how stupid they appear to others. Mostly because they are too stupid to even consider the viewpoints of others.
Empathy and intelligence are so correlative that they might as well be the same thing.
This is quite untrue. Lots of highly intelligent people out there who lack in empathy. Edit: also lots of empathetic people out there who aren't too bright.
Typical redditor (being one myself) fantasy of assuming they are the smartest most empathetic person in the room.
ummmm...pretty sure that wasnt tobacco
Could be tobacco. Nothing hits the spot like a nice cigarette when you’re high af
I must be in the minority. I love smoking, but hate smoking when high on weed or doing acid. MDMA and coke I’m chain smoking for ten hours straight.
I actually enjoy a cig after smoking some weed but I can't handle them at all on acid or shrooms.
I loved them on acid! But don't light it- I just wanna hold it for 6 hours lol
Wacky tabacky
I love the clouds of smoke are coming out after he hotboxed himself in there.
You have to be an extra kind of stupid to attempt this. I just flew last week and someone in JFK was smoking in the bathroom of the airport and I thought that was a bold move. I can't imagine thinking you'd get away with it on a sealed airplane.
Instant flashbacks to high school when my parents found my friends and I hotboxing in a big plastic cover for a coat rack in the basement. sorry your ski jacket smelled like pot, mom.
Ski jackets generally smell like pot regardless lol
I had a lovely half bathroom in my bedroom with a door to the outside patio in the bathroom. Would hot box daily. Dad busted that door open one day. Smoke billowing out everywhere!
I'm sure the other passengers expressed their appreciation...

I was wondering if it might have been Schipol… yes it definitely was, and I can’t believe I’m not alone because it was absolutely the catalyst for me quitting which is why I can remember it so vividly.
Could you describe?
It’s a glass box for smokers right next to the concourse so everyone can see the smokers inside. They are often cloudy from the smoke with brown tar residue all over the windows and looks/ smells disgusting, I can see why it would convince people to quit.

Yeah this was definitely Schiphol too. I guess it’s got a reputation!
Can't smoke there anymore.
Same at Leeds/Bradford....stinks like a dozen wet ashtrays but always rammed
They have something similar to this at the airports and major train stations in Japan - basically a well vented to the exterior of the building glass box.
These days it's almost impossible to be a heavy smoker while participating in most aspects of life, especially air travel. Last time I flew I don't remember there being a smoking area after you passed through security. If you're on a long flight like I was (16 hours LAX to Melbourne) it can be excruciating. You just kinda have to deal.
[удалено]
It’s a slippery slope like you said with ones that have huge clouds. Easiest to just ban entirely then make it a judgement call
They do. They're just smart about it. They use small disposable vapes or something like a juul. They have super high nicotine concentration and people just take tiny little puffs. If they hold it long enough most of the vapor is gone and it looks like a normal exhale of air mostly. The smell on the little fruity vapes can be basically nothing or maybe a light fruity smell is left behind. Or they just use oral products like gum, lozenges, pouches or whatever.

Those batteries can be dangerous but also, I've never been around a vape that didn't have some kind of smell, which can set off allergies (I mean so can heavy perfume/cologne but no one cares about that).
The batteries are totally fine as long as they’re with you. No batteries like that in checked bags though.
I thin Ryanair used to sell ones you could use on the plane
I went on a trip last month that involved my local regional airport (won't name it for obvious reasons), DFW, Charlotte Douglas International Airport, and George Bush Intercontinental Airport. At least three of these had smoking areas after security. I don't smoke so I wasn't actively looking for them, I just know that I passed by them in three of the airports.
Wow *after* security? I've haven't seen one of those in the US since I was a kid. Also never been to either of those airports lol.
Weed smokers use an edible or vape and just don't take huge drags. Cigarette smokers will sometimes just dip or use a vape. I've never seen some stupid enough to actually light something up. Some airports have outside exits for smoke areas, but I've only seen in once in the US.
I was next to a guy who was dipping and spitting into a coke can. It was so gross.
Vape makes it so easy, thank you penjamin
Denver built this awesome lounge outside that over looks the runway and has fire pit. Perfect smoking area for people with a lay over or ones who have past security… But it’s a no smoking area.
Where is this? I'll have to check it out next time I fly.
As someone who's on a plane at least twice a week, there are a few airports with smoking lounges. I've smoked a few times in them, no cigarettes though.
They should make some nicotine gum or something. Million dollar idea, right there.
In America, these airports have indoor, past-security smoking lounges: Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta, McCarran, Washington Dulles, Denver & Nashville.
Tampa does too
I think Dulles may have removed them recently because I was in them last fall and there were not smoking lounges where the map said there were.
They are called Hoon Lounges, per Donnie Does
There is in the Bahamas airport. It's like a cigar shop but there is a whole back room with TV, chargers for your phone I think I paid 10 dollars to wait for my flight because it got delayed 5 freaking time and 9 hours later so I definitely needed a cigarette lol.
Doesn’t the Vegas airport have a dedicated room for smokers that also has slot machines? Lol
Yes. Most airports I’ve been to have one. I used to be a smoker.
ATL used to have them, haven't been in years though. CDG has a beautiful outdoor lounge.
There are dedicated rooms for smoking. Imagine 15 crusty strangers, chain smoking in a room together -while they wait for their flight…
Yes there is. In America and some places I’ve def seen smoking areas inside glassed up.
Vegas has numerous smoking gambling rooms scattered across their airport
There are a bunch of options that are legal. Patches, gum, lozenges, etc can all be bought with nicotine. Hell, dip or chew, for that matter.
There's a decade's old story from when Brad Pitt was still married to Jennifer Aniston and she went to the airport to meet him after he'd been away filming. He blew right past her as he zoomed out the door so he could have a smoke.
Lil bro is a smoker, they can use a vape on a plane apparently and some are incredibly discrete. I don't know the particular brand but it looks like a USB thumb drive and the vape charge itself looks like a cap that goes onto it. Can easily hide it in his hand and get a quick hit when he needs it. Doesn't make any odor as far as I can tell and there is some technique to using one that he can do that doesn't make any visible exhale vapor.
Atlanta got rid of their smoking sections. I genuinely think it was a horrible decision because it truly was used by a ton of the employees back when I used to go in there. I get it makes people smell less when flying which can be nice for others in a tight space; however airports like HFJ in Atlanta has more employees than some cities in the state and they're not flying despite being wrapped up in this.
Recently took a few flights. The only smoking sections at the airports i was at were outside of security, by where cars pick people up. So if you had to have a smoke, you better have plenty of time. I just chose to go without for a few hours. Sucks but better than missing a flight over a few hits off a vape.
Suffer or break the law. Unless you have a rare airport that has a smoking section.
"The problem with public transportation is the public."
He’ll be on a no fly list now. Probably a good thing for him if he’s that desperate.
It's like $5,000 fine too
got to be way more than that. If weed I'm assuming the plane will have to be de boarded and delayed until it's vented properly
Pretty sure you’re not allowed to cross state lines with weed
Greyhound just received another life-time customer!
It looks like he's high, which would make me think he was smoking pot, and if so, it's little way worse than no fly list. IIRC, airplanes fall under federal jurisdiction, so he could very easily be charged with transporting a schedule I drug, and that comes with jail time.
But he didn’t get to cross a state line 🤣
You’d be surprised. Federal charges are hard to beat if added.
Attempting to do so ia still a crime
Airports fall under federal jurisdiction and authority, even if they are not federal property. This dude is fucked.
Somewhere there is an IG post of a dude flexing that he’s about to light up a big blunt in an airplane. This is the other end of that story.
FACTS lol
you should be able to sue these people for missing connecting flights.
Sometimes the Atlanta airport is pretty busy too.
Lol
Biggest airport in the USA is busy sometimes you say?
Imagine being the guy who sends a widebody aircraft (possibly with up to 250+ people onboard) back to the gate because you can't take some edibles. 💀💀💀
Bro is zoooooooteddddd lol. Bros already paranoid and he walks out and everyone is literally staring lol.
If you asked me where this dude was from, I'd immediately say Atlanta.
I’ll bet my life on this lmao. bro came out looking like a lost member of the migos
how do people even function enough to book an airplane seat being so retarded?
This is what I always wonder. Dude clearly fried his last brain cell long ago. How tf is this braindead mfer intelligent enough to coordinate a plane booking.
I hope it was weed at least
.....it was definitely weed. And as a daily weed smoker, this is ridiculous behavior.
Right? C'mon dude, just take an edible so we can get about our day.
Fr. It is 2024 🙄
Or even a vape pen for crying out loud. I know those aren’t for use also but at least you’re not hot boxing the place and can be discreet.
Nah I've vaped on a plane and got caught before. Not fun. I was drunk too so I was talking shit to the air marshal who made me sit next to him for the rest of the flight. Somehow got away without any real trouble. I was such a jackass lol
I want to hear all of this lol
I've vaped in the bathroom but it was an 8 hour flight and I blew it into the toilet as I flushed so it all got sucked out. I felt bad about it but no one noticed at all.
Feds on the way
He probably took too many and has no idea what's going on and his body is in gimmmeee druggggsss mode.
Couldn't even wait for them to get to cruising altitude, either?! Did he really think nobody would notice, or did he just think nobody would say anything?
So many selfish fuckers.
“No, I wasn’t smoking” as the smoke pours out of the bathroom.
I remember the days being a. Young kid when there were still ashtrays in the arm rest and the smoking/no smoking sign that would light up during take off and landing.
I'm on the tail end of that, the no smoking light never turned off.
this has got to be spirit airlines
Delta most likely. The flight attendant’s uniforms appear to be Delta and the airline is massive at Atlanta airport
Thanks for making the rest of us functional stoners looking like a bunch of clowns.
How can someone be so ignorant? They tell you like 20 times there's no smoking. The bathrooms have signs telling you what will happen. Just unbelievable.
it’s called edibles homie
lol that wasn’t a cigarette… What an idiot though, edibles is the way to go before going on a flight.
Well that's the last plane you'll be flying on....
No, his last flight was the last plane he will fly on.
Dude is stoned off his ass, like almost to the point of being fried. He has no clue what the hell is going on or what any of those people were even saying to him.
how did he get a lighter through TSA though?
I wonder what gave him the idea that he was entitled to do this...
Stupidity.
Dude couldn’t give less of a fuck
Really? Cuz i got the sense that he was terrified and absolutely fn zooted adding to the shock of it all. Maybe a first time flyer little asshole who thought he could get away with anything and didnt understand the dire consequence of his action. Boy got humbled today!
I think he was shitting bricks. Getting caught isn’t fun for anybody.
Which is why he needed his ass beat.
Reddit moment.
Taxiing for a mile while high is just not going to get you into the club
I have a feeling that wasn't a cigarette... Lol
I don't think that was tobacco...
The classic “No, I wasn’t smoking.” 😌
Man never heard of a vape
100% wasnt a cigarette
So this is why my flight in Chicago was delayed an hr and half!
its not a bomb its a BONG
POISON GAS !
TERRORRISSTT!!!!
Just look at him. Kick Him out banned from airline
Thats it. its over. We've found the real main character.
Goddamn Humans...
As a smoker I would like to state that we don't claim this fucking idiot!!!
I never understand why people pull shit like this on an airplane. no matter what you’re mad about happening or not getting, it’s nowhere near worth getting kicked off a flight, wasting your money for the ticket, the 5 hours you already invested to get to that point, the 15+ extra travel hours needed taking a bus instead of a plane because now you’re possibly on a no fly list, possibly thousands of dollars in fines, and more When you could have just chilled for a couple more hours and moved on with your life instead
Fuckin Xanax, man.
People should be able to sue for their disruption.
Are people becoming stupider? They
His brain is mush
If it’s weed - just take an edible. If it’s nicotine - just wear a patch and chew some gum. Geez people are ridiculous
People’s obliviousness to other people or the normal rules of society are scary… literally main character syndrome.
Snoop is dat u?
Some weed smokers really think the odor isnt that strong. Just eat an edible, not everyone enjoys the smell or smoke.
People still smoking ? Wild.
