Unruly behaviour by Indian passengers on flights have gained massive spotlight for wrong reasons. But this trend is not limited to India alone.

A video of an Australian pilot’s outburst over a passenger’s alleged inappropriate conduct has gone viral.

According to SkyNews, the video is from a Virgin Australia flight and shows a brawl between a passenger and the pilot outside the cockpit. Another passenger and a flight attendant are seen trying to separate the two. A verbal spat escalated into a scuffle with the pilot pushing the accused towards the exit door.

“You’re off mate,” the pilot said after the passenger reportedly refused to cooperate. The passenger, while initially refusing to deboard even as he is pushed towards the exit, later agreed to leave after the pilot asked the staff to call the cops, the Sky News report stated.
