A young passenger has proved yet again that it's never wise to make a joke about terrorism – particularly when you're on a plane.
A 21-year-old on a Jet Airways flight found out the hard way, after he was caught covering his face with a hankerchief and making a joke about terrorism on Snapchat, Fox News reports.
Yogvedant Poddar was on a domestic flight in India when he took a photo of himself and typed some regrettable words: "Terrorist on flight, I destroy women hearts".
Another passenger, Benjamin Plackett, reportedly alerted the flight captain after he saw Poddar typing the message.
He was then removed from the Kolkata – Mumbai flight for questioning by security officers.
He claimed the Snapchat photo was a joke for his friends – but the joke caused the 160-passenger flight to be delayed for more than an hour due to the security check.
