QuoteThe armed hijacker of an African aircraft was overpowered by passengers and crew last night when the captain of the jet deliberately braked suddenly on landing in the Canary Islands.

QuoteThe plan worked and, according to Spanish officials today, the hijacker, named as Mohamed Abderraman, tumbled over and dropped one of his guns before six men, including a Mauritanian mayor, stormed the pilots cabin and threw a pot of boiling water on his groin and chest.

guy deserves a severe beating tbh...

I cant believe that people are still attempting hijackings after 911 - you can pretty much guarantee that next time someone with an islamic sounding name tries a hijacking then half the plane will probably lynch the f**ker.

And rightly so. Idiot. Amazing what one can do if one knows its the last roll of the dice.
