MYFOXNY.COM - A Playboy centerfold tried to bust out -- midair -- from a jet amid a bad case of high anxiety.
Law enforcement officers met a JetBlue plane at its arrival gate in Newark Liberty International Airport Thursday afternoon because of a passenger who was causing a disturbance on board, the airline reported.
The passenger was identified as 21-year-old Tiffany Livingston. She was aboard JetBlue Flight 522 from Florida to Newark, N.J., on Thursday when she bolted from her seat and tried to open the door of the plane.
She had became agitated because of turbulence and appeared to grab the handle of an emergency door, a source told Fox 5 News. Then two off-duty police officers who happened to be on the flight stopped her.
The plane, Flight 552 from Fort Myers, Florida, landed safely and without incident, said Alison Croyle, a spokesperson for the airline. "JetBlue will cooperate fully with local authorities, who are investigating this matter," she said in a statement.
"She said she's gone through this before, but never this bad, and didn't have ... her medication," one source told the New York Post .
Livingston was detained and placed in federal custody.
She was the centerfold for the debut edition of VIP, the Singapore version of Playboy, in which she was described as "not just another pretty face."
"Tiffany boasts the immaculate poise of a mature model wrapped with a bubbly demeanor," the profile said.
Asked if she believed in destiny, Tiffany Livingston posted, "I'm the kind of person, who needs to feel like everything happens for a reason. When you date a guy and it goes badly, that's horrible. But if you can write a song about it, then it was worth it."
Fuzzy bunny ping!

What a boob
“and didn’t have ... her medication,””
I knew it was drug related even before I read that phrase..................
Michael Savage talks often about the dangers of our over-medicated society.
Lemme guess. She’s a blond, right?
"Thank you, God!"
Don’t know. I was going to let our resident expert picture finders make this a more useful thread. :-)
"Sweetheart, if you opened the door the plane would have depressurized."
"Oh, I didn't think of that"
What the heck is immaculate poise?
She acted like a mature Alzheimer's patient.
I just want to know where the evidence is...hehe
Ok, she panicked. I understand that. I feel like panicking when I’m on a plane, too. Fortunately, the drink cart usually arrives in time for me and thus for my fellow passengers.
Her place in Hef’s hot-tub has just been cancelled.
I have to say, I stopped flying because I had panic attacks the last 4 times I was on flights. I flew for years without incident before, but then they started. After the last one (many years ago now) I just decided there was no need to continue. It’s not something I can control, so I have sympathy for this woman. I don’t know what causes it, I’m not otherwise crazy. I never got out of my seat and tried to leave the airplane, but I was not ok until the plane was down and I could get off. I felt sorry for my husband tho. The flight attendants were very understanding. But I’m sure they were glad to be rid of me.
LOL! Those were the days!
Isn’t there a connection between stimulant drugs (amphetamines, cocaine) and paranoia.
One of the greatest movies ever.
As the old National Lampoon joked about Suzanne Sommers she probably said “I may not be a rocket scientist but I’m certainly not a brain surgeon.”
