Passenger opens plane door midair on a flight | GMA 

In addition to jail time, make sure he's banned from flying for life!

He should get charge with 194 counts of attempted murder

If I was sitting next to him, I would’ve been in jail too for aggravated assault once we landed.

Are we just gonna ignore how calm and composed those 2 seem?

He's the kind of person who'd unplug someone’s life support machine just to charge his phone

The look between the two men… they didn’t say a word to each other but said so much with just a look.

Imagine the panic attacks some of those passengers must’ve experienced

Should automatically get 20 years in prison,and never allowed to fly in any plane! Any airline!

That’s why having your seat belt on is so important

This is why you always keep your seat belt on.

10 minutes of fun- 10 years of jail😂

The more important question is: why is it so easy for a passenger to do this? We’re spending billions trying to make security robust and all someone needs to do is pull a door handle to put lives at danger?

The way the two men in the front seats looked at each other was kind of a beautiful human moment, hopefully everyone hospitalized will recover soon

Soon, you will Need a mental health screening and clearance to fly.

If convicted up to 10 years? It should be life sentence.

Look how chill some of those passengers look. They are like just another day!

The moment the two guys in the front turn and look at each other is so wholesome 😂. They both nod and raise their eyebrows, it’s almost a unspoken mutual agreement between them how much it sucks that they’re both about to be sucked out of an airplane door and that they’ll never sit near the emergency exit again.

His crazy ass needs to be facing much more than just 10 yrs!!!

The way the 2 guys look at each other as if to say- ive had better flights 😂😂

To all those who say these doors are designed not to open while in flight ? Actions speak louder than words people !

The man who opened the door shouls be charged with attempted murder for every single person on board

I love the reassuring look the two guys give each other when they make eye contact.

He should get much more than only 10 years!!!

He let his inner thoughts beat him. I have urges to open my car door whilst cruising down the freeway

Only 10 years for attempted negligent homicide of 194 souls?

He let intrusive thoughts win

Hes the type of guy to break a window with no handle to get fresh air💀

What is wrong with people?!?!?

Only 10 years??? He should get 10 years for each person's life that he endangered.

They need to just have staff/security that sit at the emergency exits.

Prisoner 1: "I got convicted for murder. What about you?" Prisoner 2: "For opening the airplane door mid-flight." Prisoner 1: "Wait, seriously? 😂"

A perfect commercial for his glasses, stayed on no matter what 😂

Plus, he needs to be on the No Fly list!

Should have given the guy a gentle push out the emergency exit.

When your intrusive thoughts win 🏆

He deserves every second of that 10 year sentence.

Guy next to the guy should unbuckle him and kick him out.

Those two passengers sitting next to the open door don’t seem concerned at all lol. “Umm Ms, Could we get one more bag of pretzels mine just flew out the open door.”

What the hell is going on with air travel lately?

Imagine if the passenger said he/she wanted fresh air not knowing what was gonna happen💀

Give the dude in the blue shirt a medal: calmly holding onto his seat with one hand, his s**t with the other hand, calmly enjoying the breeze from the open door next to him on the flying plane. Legend😎

My God so glad nobody got hurt

He deserves a lot more than 10 years.

Listening to news in America must give one mental health issues.

The old man at the front was loving it

People could have died... What is wrong with people these days?

"no signs he'd been drinking" 😂😂

Blue shirt guy: this is fine!

He should serve the full sentence

Actually no one should sit near the exit doors except the stewards

I definitely would have needed medical assistance 😂😂

Thankyou for putting him behind bars.Can’t believe he manage to get on board without using his brain

How can that even happen? I would think there is some safety mechanism in place for mid flight.

Passenger has a death grip on his book.

He let his intrusive thoughts win😂

Call the psych ward. He broke out. 😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣

I'm surprised he didn't get ripped out of the plane.

I'm stunned that the passengers seemed so calm! I would've been screaming my head off, crying, praying and I know my soul would've definitely left my body permanently and I would've crossed over.

"We're about to land." "Ope, better open my door so I can hop right out..."

boeing be like: we don't need anyone to open our doors in flight.

Why?! Why?! Just why?!!!!

He will probably say, “Whoops…I thought that was the bathroom door!”🫢

That old man sat there like this was an everyday thing😅

He was charged and sentenced to 8 months in prison. He also lost his job

Those people looked calm af. Asians just built different.

Those people didn’t even looks scared 😳

This guy is gonna have insane dad lore 💀💀💀

dude that’s so nice from them, they gave a free door

No flying ever again for that man...PERIOD!

That's crazy! So glad no one was seriously hurt.

This man the type dude to read the warning label to not put chemicals into his eyes and still do it anyway.

When interviewed by the news the man was reported saying “oops”.

No sign he's been drinking? Dude, he opened the door mid flight. I think that's a sign right there lol

10 Years is NOT enough JUSTICE ⚠️

This individual should never be allowed to board an airplane ever in his life 🤦🏾‍♀️🤦🏾‍♀️🤦🏾‍♀️🤦🏾‍♀️🤦🏾‍♀️

He knew what he was doing, waited for the plane to be low enough to be able to open the door.

The guy in the blue shirt seemed to really enjoy the wind/air right in his face: probably a roller coaster lover LOL

That man just wanted some fresh air calm down folks😂

That outta be one zany story to tell the other inmates. ‘Hey man, what are you in for?’ ‘I opened a door.’ Lol

I would teach that guy a lesson as soon as the belt sign is off

When you look at the open door, it makes perfect sense that no-one could shut it again mid flight. So then the passengers have to endure the heavy wind, which must not only be extremely strong but also extremely cold. Not to mention the panicky thoughts of how the wind might affect the flight controls and landing. What a nerve-wracking experience that would’ve been for them. I only wonder what the staff could’ve announced through the speakers to inspire a modicum of calm

I can hear the prison sob story now. "Why are you here?" "I don't know, all I did was open a door." 😂

😂 they all sound like Social Media I can't 😂😂😂

Makes me wonder if he was about to make an attempt on his own life. Tried to build the nerve the whole flight, pilot said they about to land, he thought "now or never" and opened the door.

He probably thought the bathroom was behind that door lol 😂

what’s wrong with getting some fresh air? 😂😂😂

Life in prison to make sure he never flies again!

No one tried to tackle him?

I hope the people on the plane are ok. I would never think to do something that wasn't my business doing, unless a real emergency.

Lost one of my best friends recently, basically a brother.. he lived with us and was family... Just before christmas he randomly had a heart attack and died in my moms arma early in the afternoon. I woke up to her at my door crying asking for help where he was on her bedroom floor. He was pronounced dead an hour later when help arrived. For 40 minutes his body was shutting down and it was horrific. Nothing i could do. He had a slight heart issue hed always had but it wasnt aupposed to affect him for atleast 10 more years. What still hurts me is the night before he was wanting to hangout and i was tired so went to bed and closed my door and thats the last time i talked to him. Just saying "naw im just gonna chill than sleep" than went and closed my door and that was it.... It was out of the ordinary and i was just being antisocial. I usually dont close my door and hang with the family till like 2 am. Life is just awful sometimes and makes no sense and almost like certain moments were designed specifically to be your nightmare.

Only 10 years in jail for attempting mass murder?… no no

He wanted some fresh air...

“IF” convicted? Every person on that plane needs to be at his trial. He could have taken any one of them away from their families.

He just wanted to pull that bright red lever and see what happened 😂

I can't imagine how scary that would be. I'd probably have a panic attack

I feel like there should be a swipe card type lock on those things. I’ve been on one and some kids weren’t being watched by their parents and were playing with the door. Repeatedly even after the hostess spoke to them. Was incredibly stressful

People are doing more crazier things now more than ever in my lifetime. One more reason to not sit near the exit doors I guess. He needs the maximum sentence. Mental health screenings should be required!

Dude was just preparing everyone for Boeing's door plugs

I love how the guy in the blue shirt is calm. This is just a normal day for him with idiots.

People in those seats should sue him for a lot of money
