Unusual and bizarre things happen all the time, but some of the strangest things have occurred at airports and during flights in recent years. Here are five of the most unusual incidents that have taken place:
1. A turtle inside a hamburger
A Chinese passenger named Li attempted to board a flight out of Beijing with his pet turtle hidden inside a hamburger. Security screeners discovered the turtle’s legs inside the hamburger, prompting Li to claim that there was nothing unusual in his bag. Ultimately, he was prohibited from bringing the turtle onto the flight and had to abandon it at the airport.
2. A body in a wheelchair as an additional passenger
Two women from Germany were apprehended at John Lennon Airport in Liverpool when they attempted to board a plane with the body of a deceased relative in a wheelchair. The women insisted that the elderly man was simply sleeping, but it was later revealed that he had passed away days earlier. The women were attempting to avoid the costs associated with returning the body to Berlin.
3. Crocodile inside the bag
In a shocking incident, a man smuggled a crocodile onto a plane in a sports bag with the intention of illegally selling it. The crocodile escaped from the bag during the flight, causing panic among the passengers. The ensuing chaos led to a crash that resulted in numerous fatalities, with only one survivor able to recount the events.
4. Emergency landing because of mushroom soup
A Ryanair flight from Budapest to Dublin was forced to land in Germany after a passenger suffered an allergic reaction to mushroom soup. The soup had leaked from an overhead compartment, leading to the urgent need for medical attention due to the passenger’s severe allergy.
5. Tadpoles inside the mouth
A South Korean citizen was found to be transporting dozens of tadpoles in her mouth while at an airport in China. Security inspectors were both shocked and baffled when she spat out the tadpoles after being asked to drink the liquid in the bottle she was carrying. The passenger explained that a friend had given her the tadpoles, but she was ultimately forced to leave them behind before boarding the plane.
These unusual occurrences serve as a reminder that air travel can sometimes be full of surprises, both extraordinary and bizarre.
