"b4grabbing a beer from the galley and activating the slide"

His bail was set at $2500. He has almost 63K fans on Facebook, and everybody was throwing money at him for his bail and legal fees. He's become a folk hero.

I didn't realise he announced he was going to kill himself as well? ;P

Found this laughable. I think the flight attendant might have responded appropriately to the passenger.
From CBC

When the passenger refused to apologize, the paper reported, Slater unleashed a string of expletives via the public-address system, deployed the inflatable evacuation chute, grabbed a beer from the beverage cart, yelled "It's been great!" and slid down and went to his car.

Flight attendants are trained to take charge in an emergency and save lives, forced to live in 2 or 3 different cities making it tough to live the nomral family life, then often the people who get their protection treat them like crap.

I wish I had a recording of the 'string of expletives'

Merged Cunt's post in with the existing thread.

Probably some of both of the above.

There was the issue of the plane's scheduled flights being delayed and a few hundred people being held up, but fuck 'em. He got a beer out of it.

My guess would be about the loss of time this cost the airline. Airplane parts are cheap and plentiful, when compared to the cost of a delay.
