And before that, the man had been sitting for three more hours waiting for rescuers.





The most ordinary British Airways flight from Murtala Muhammed International Airport in Lagos to London Airport Heathrow. The plane landed safely at 5.10 am and that's when the the real story about Repka. Oversized passenger of the first class suddenly realized that independently get up from his chic he can't get a place.

All attempts by the crew to pull out the fat man on their own were unsuccessful, then it was decided to call rescuers. The same had to spend another three hours to cut off the partition and with using a winch to get the poor fellow.



For reference, the standard seat width in economy class on Boeing 747 - 45 cm. In the first class of British Airways, the seat is 61 cm and it turned out that this is not enough for the local Winnie the Poohs. By the way, man paid for that fateful place for his ass 7000 pounds sterling.

It's not okay when you get stuck in a children's swing, but getting stuck in an airplane seat is clearly too much!
