A large passenger was seen getting dragged off a Thai Lion Air flight in a video that's circulating on social media. You can't always get what you want!

You never want to be seen getting dragged off of a flight. It's a terrible look, especially if you're a larger man. It's not how you want to be seen. Unfortunately, this guy is now being seen by the masses as video of him getting dragged off a Thai Lion Air flight is going viral online. It sounds like he demanded an aisle seat which led to him getting dragged off and the flight was delayed over an hour. Imagine being someone on that flight with somewhere to be and you end up getting delayed because some large man has to be dragged off the flight like a toddler. That's not what you want but that's how it goes flying in the friendly skies these days!

You don't want to go viral for getting dragged off a flight while wearing your Garfield shirt. It's like one embarrassing thing after another in this video. It has more than 1.7M views on social media.

That viral video was shared by @CollinRugg on X (formerly Twitter) and is captioned, "NEW: Overweight man wearing a Garfield shirt gets dragged off a plane after demanding he get an emergency exit seat due to his weight. The definition of a man-child right here. The man was reportedly from the UK and threw a tantrum on his flight departing from Bangkok when flight attendants refused his request. Authorities then entered the plane which promoted the man to lie in the middle of the aisle, forcing them to drag him off. The plane was delayed for an hour due to the incident."

That's wild. If you don't get your way you can't just lie down in the aisle! That's definitely man-child behavior right there. I'm saying that as a man-child myself.

That’s thanks to his time spent as an Intern at Comedy Central and Social Media Correspondent for The Colbert Report. Cort has done comedy across the country, both standing up and sitting down. When he’s not trying to make you laugh on-air and online, he’s probably at home enjoying his favorite shows like Seinfeld, South Park, and The Office. He’s also totally uncomfortable writing about himself in the third person. Cort enjoys writing about comedy, food, sports, and entertainment. So, basically anything and everything.
