What a load of croc.

Damn you Antar

Actually it's true and I've got the picture that proves it! :eek:

I'd rather have the snappy croc on my plane than one of those vile pieces of footwear!

Idiot. You would have thought the guy smuggling the croc would have taped his mouth shut with some 0.99p masking tape.

And the fact it was small enough to fit into a carrier bag suggests the croc wasn't that big and therefore not that dangerous as a full sized one.

How... unusual.

I'm ashamed to say that this part made me laugh:

Ironically the crocodile also survived the crash but was later killed with a machete by rescuers sifting through the wreckage.

Jokes aside - why the hell would people panic? Did they think they could run off the plane or something?

Feel for the pilot and staff's families.

In an already confined environment Fight or Flight (no pun intended) is already working overtime.

I'm not sure I'd be comfortable in a plane that can tip over if the passengers stand up.

Seriously? Have you never been on a plane where they space the passengers out to spread the load. Im pretty sure that most commercial aircraft would be in trouble if all of the passengers ran to one side of the plane.

Crocs - Far deadlier than any ink cartridge!

They were already in 'flight' though.

What was rushing to one side of the plane going to achieve, apart from the needless deaths of pretty much all involved?

What a bizarre cause of an accident. V sad for all those involved.

A pic of the type of plane involved:

Seriously though, croc in a bag, hand luggage, can't be that big a croc then?

What the merry ****?!

You're right. I'm sure no sane person would panic if they saw a crocodile loose on a plane.

Erm.

I don't know why but i have a image of a crocodile sat in a passengers chair with a top hat, a fake moustache and a monocle. Then after some turbulence they fall off and everyone realises and panics.

Soon they will be adding it to the list of banned items in carry on luggage at UK airports.

Maybe if it was in a clear security bag then it would have been ok.
