RALEIGH, N.C. (WNCN) A person who passed gas on an American Airlines plane on Sunday afternoon forced all passengers off the jet, officials said.
The incident happened when passengers on the flight became ill with nausea and headaches, according to a spokesperson with Raleigh-Durham International Airport.
The flight, which was not identified by RDU officials, landed at the airport around 4 p.m. when the incident was reported.

Well, no more Slim Jim and boiled eggs in our prepay lunch packages.
And you can’t order a beer onboard!
Oh great, I’m leaving from that airport today.
"....a few beers,a couple of bean and cabbage tacos...and those tiny marshmallows I found under the couch....I shudda just played with those marshmallows"
I’ve cleared my family out of the living room once....never a entire plane. My hat goes off to this person...... Lol :)
Why can’t I stop laughing at toots! It’s been going on since I was a child, my brothers and sisters too! Not my parents but absolutely the six of us! It continues even now in our 50’s-60’s, and now my grandkids have adopted this practice as well! We keep them to ourselves but when one slips, we roll! Even now I am giggling away as I write this! That said, we’ve never caused an evacuation! I think I would have laughed myself nearly to death had I been onboard!
Here are a few links that are sort of related to this story.
Why is it that people have that reaction, but it makes dogs want to sniff it all in?
Some of the comments under the article are hilarious! They are worth reading if you have the time :)
It was the Russian! (Pointing).
Your post made me laugh. If I didn’t know better, I’d think we were raised in the same household. :)
Also, I’m tickled that your user name is GizzyGirl...because of COURSE now all I can think of is how close that is to GassyGirl! (I promise never to call you that, though.) :)
Thanks for the chuckle, my kindred FRiend!
Flight attendants have been known to “crop dust” a passenger they are having a tough time with.
I just read your last link...the “handwritten plea to flight attendant.” Oh my gosh! I STILL have tears on my cheeks from laughing so hard!! I’ll have to read the other articles tomorrow; I don’t want to miss a bit of the fun!
Thanks for posting!! So funny!! :)

Oh my goodness, the comments under the article are HYSTERICAL!!!! My eyelashes are soaking wet, my nose is running, and my gut muscles are hurting, all from laughing so hard.
Thanks for posting; I needed the laughs!!!! :)
Obviously there was a contest going on that flight:

I have read that B-17 and B-24 crewmembers skipped high fiber breakfasts because the gas buildup would incapacitate or kill them at high altitudes....
Brings back memories of my daily bus commute to NYC. The fat ones always zeroed in on skinny me.
