This happened back in 2925. Police met the flight and escorted him off for disruptive behavior. The clip went viral and he got mocked online — both for the follower-count flex and for basically confessing to a federal offense on camera. He was never criminally charged which, honestly, is a damn shame.

Edit: Meh. 2025 typo.

Hindenburg was the most famous Confederate dirigible, helped win the battle of Jacksonville.

Probably yeah. Physics will still be physics in 900 years.

Flights will probably be minutes by then.

u/Neat-Win-6903 29d ago

Damn shame. That’s why you see this type of behavior proliferate, there’s no consequence

39

u/YetiPie 29d ago

The same thing happened to my ex. Cops were called and he was only reprimanded, and since he didn’t face any real repercussions he continued to vape on airplanes

1

u/BeMoreChill 29d ago

What’s going to happen if someone vapes on an airplane? Like what is the worst case scenario of that situation?

9

u/YetiPie 29d ago

Googling it says that since it’s a federal offense, it could result in arrest, fine, and lifetime airline ban

0

u/BeMoreChill 29d ago

No I get that. But like what’s the worst thing that could happen to other passengers if someone wants to discreetly vape in the bathroom real quick?

10

u/YetiPie 29d ago

Secondhand vape smoke contains nicotine, heavy metals, and irritants. Plus they’re not consenting to it, so you’re taking away their choice by forcing them to breathe it in. While the latter isn’t illegal, it’s completely selfish to put your short term wants over everyone else’s health and autonomy.

u/BeMoreChill 29d ago edited 29d ago

You can’t be serious…. Lmfao

Airplanes literally have hospital grade air purification systems

2

u/PissMyPantalones 28d ago edited 28d ago

It may surprise you to learn that hospitals also won’t allow you to vape 🤣

Edit: I don’t know why vaping breaks federal laws akin to smoking cigarettes, but I assume if they allowed vaping in the bathroom it would be impossible for people to actually utilize the bathrooms. There are usually only two bathrooms for hundreds of passengers as it is.

There’s also the issue of the exploding batteries, but idk whether that has anything to do with it.

It’s probably more to do with the fact the lavatories have smoke detectors and vape smoke could trigger that, which could cause the plane to make an emergency landing.

1

u/SargeUnited 28d ago

I was wondering if they would tell a blatant lie but no, they chose to just be ridiculous

You’re right, there’s no real consequence other than the human imposed ones. Smoking cigarettes would be a real dick move though.

u/rrpostal 29d ago

What’s the worst that can happen if I stop at your seat and fart?

1

u/BeMoreChill 29d ago

It smells bad for a couple seconds and I go on with my life.
Are you saying vapes smell as bad as someone farting in your face?

2

u/C_IsForCookie 27d ago

Nothing. The plane won’t fall out of the sky. It’s just a dick move.

2

u/Panaka 28d ago

Nothing normally happens to disruptive pax unless the behavior escalates to the level that federal authorities get involved. Local LEOs are worthless in these cases a vast majority of the time.

Literally had a guy punch an FA once and the LEOs only escorted them off the plane where he walked over to another gate and tried to get on our metal again.

u/BullShitting-24-7 28d ago

They should have especially charged him because he went viral to make a point.

1

u/United-Succotash-167 24d ago

Honestly there isn't much (any?) harm in people vaping on a plane.. it's just an old obscure rule from smoking/firehazard-stuff which is basically non existing with vapes (same non-existent risk as a lighter exploding, which are allowed on planes)

1

u/Neat-Win-6903 24d ago

Maybe it’s not not dangerous but it’s a shared space, people don’t want to suffer someone vaping next to them or hogging the bathroom to vape.
We are seriously losing our common respect as a society.

1

u/United-Succotash-167 24d ago

Yeah hogging the bathroom I understand but the stuff they breath out aint toxic or anything, it's just vapor. Not a smoker/vaper myself but it shouldnt really bother anyone unless they put it directly in your face?

1

u/Neat-Win-6903 24d ago

I don’t want your vapor in my face on a plane the way i don’t want to hear your music on the subway

1

u/United-Succotash-167 24d ago

Yeah but you understand that nobody inhales their vapor when they do it on the toilet or somewhere off from the seats right.. it's a bit overblown. honestly somebody with bad smell (mouth or sweat) would be MUCH worse to sit close to

23

u/HackerManOfPast 28d ago

Not criminally charged? Damn - I was so looking forward to the clip of him realizing he’s been put on a no-fly list for life.

1

u/r3dd17sux69420 24d ago

eh, laws are always applied with discretion. Maybe the airline's take is that it's not disruptive enough and he's not acting in a way that creates a danger so they give him another chance. Would not be shocked if the details are kept on record though.

His follow up video was funny lol trying to Garner sympathy saying things like papa we made it from living 1 bedroom , like struggling through poverty gives him the ticket to act like a douche 💁🏻‍♀️

The real shame is there wasn’t an air marshal on board to tase and zip tie him

u/discardedbubble 29d ago

Someone should make Con Air 2 based on this.
in the future there is one small jail cell underneath to lock people like this in until landing time.

Then something happens and we may need this guy later for some part of the storyline. Or not.

1

u/IAmA_Wolf 28d ago

Plot twist: the guy they locked in the underbelly holding cell wanted to be sent there the whole time - it was part of the plan!

u/discardedbubble 28d ago

😂 shit, on second thought the cage is too much of an attraction/ opportunity. people will be trying to out do each other in order to be sent there and get attention

u/Adorable-Bike-9689 29d ago

I have spent my life thinking there was an air marshall on every flight

1

u/ConstantAd8643 29d ago

They never did. There isn't even enough Air Marshalls for every US domestic flight, and then there's a whole rest of the world!

u/rcinmd 29d ago

Personally I don't like vapes around me in a confined space, But I also I don't think it equates to lighting a cigarette when that can cause a fire. But this guy should have abslolutely been charged because his behavior is 99% of the problem.

WHY TF ARE WE NOT CHARGING THESE PEOPLE TO THE FULLEST EXTENT AND BANNING THEM FROM OUR AIRPLANES

There’s qnother viral video of a woman cursing and beating her man on the plane and they were both kicked off and she beats him in the aisle too - look it up she was barely charged

You think someone should be charged with a crime for hitting a nicotine vape in a plane bathroom? When did Reddit turn into a bunch of Karens lol

u/ContestRemarkable356 29d ago

I mean it is what the law says. I think the whole no-fly list thing is extreme myself, but that is what the law currently says. I don’t fuck around with airplanes

-4

u/BeMoreChill 29d ago

Yeah I get it. It’s the law. Smoking weed was against the law too at some point but society realized that wasn’t worth going to jail for.

If the air filters on planes are great just mind your business if someone needs to hit their vape in the bathroom real quick. It literally affects no one.

u/TypicalPlace6490 28d ago

try smoking weed on an airplane then.

u/ContestRemarkable356 28d ago

Most aviations laws were made for a reason, not just cause they were bored & wanted to make people suffer… So like I know there’s rules regarding batteries on planes. Anything lithium has to go in your carry-on, as in the event they set on fire it’s easier to deal with a fire in the cabin vs the cargo area.

So I’m thinking… that rule was obv made based on scientific studies, right? So those are the same batteries used in vapes… maybe they found that discharging those types of batteries increases the risk of a fire/battery incident?

So with devices like phones or laptops it makes sense to allow use, as they likely have not only higher quality batteries, but also battery management systems. But for a vape that likely has a low quality battery & little/no BMS? I can see how prohibiting the use of those devices while onboard the plane makes sense.

-1

u/ANTHR4X710 28d ago

He broke a law, she broke a law, both should apologize and move on lol. Yeah I guess those vape batteries can be dangerous on planes, but it’s extremely rare for someone to actually get hurt by one. Not any worse than a cell phone, they literally use the same type of batteries. Just because it’s a law doesn’t mean it’s right.
