Finnish Passenger Used Toblerone To Hijack Plane In Hong Kong - Polidicks

[quote]Antti Oskari Manselius, 23, from Finland was on board a Hong Kong-bound Cathay Pacific flight, armed only with a Toblerone chocolate bar, demanded the plane fly to Sochi so he could watch the Winter Olympics, a court heard. Two flight attendants told the court that they saw Manselius walking towards the cockpit. He had two economy-class blankets wrapped around his head and was wearing another like a cape. He held the Toblerone chocolate bar "like a sword", the newspaper said, quoting one of the attendants. "He said, 'I am robbing the plane now. I want to see the Olympics in Sochi and I need to get off the plane now," attendant Leung Hiu-lun was quoted as telling the court. "He was furious. He made me feel like he was trying to endanger the aircraft." "A Finnish passenger, a former policeman and an aircrew safety trainer handcuffed Manselius with the help of a cabin crew manager. They also cuffed his legs and fastened his chest with an extra seatbelt," the Post said. After breakfast was served, Manselius fell asleep.[/quote] [url]http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2014/04/18/toblerone-hijack_n_5171762.html?fb_action_ids=10203018702102215&fb_action_types=og.likes[/url]

To be fair if I was piloting the plane, I might consider turning it if I was offered a toblerone bar, they are damn good.

The idea of a would-be hijacker falling asleep after a failed attempt is strangely adorable

The image of a Finnish passenger strutting down the isle with a blanket-cape and Toblerone-sword is killer.

This reads like a round recap in the SS13 thread. Finnish assistant tries to take over the bridge with a donk pocket, captain says no, and then security bucklecuffs him. Shortly after that the clown comes by and feeds him the donk pocket after injecting chloral hydrate into it.

Oh damn, nevermind. Read the full article. Finland representing itself it seems.

Toblerone can be used as a sword? Better ban it from all public schools.

[QUOTE=Oizen;44586587]Toblerone can be used as a sword? Better ban it from all public schools.[/QUOTE] Or achieve world dominance by teaching kids how to hijack planes using a chocolate bar. You decide!

Watch out for the sharp edges!

[QUOTE=UntouchedShadow;44588667]That headgear continues to confuse me to this day.

But running around as a golden cotton-swab of justice is always great.

"Jesus Christ is that a jumbo Toblerone? Those things are fucking expensive at the airport!"

The hero Finland had, but China needed. Such is life outside of New Jersey.
