A drunken passenger was tasered by police after stripping naked on the airport tarmac – and challenging the pilot to a fight.
The 52-year-old man, who had arrived in Manchester on an easyJet flight from Malta, also urinated up the side of the Terminal One building.
Video taken of the amazing incident shows the burly, bald man removing his clothes on the runway apron and posturing at the captain – before receiving a slap across the face from his female companion.
It is understood trouble began mid-flight when the man, who appeared drunk, became abusive and started swearing at fellow passengers.
A witness who asked not to be named said: “He’d had an altercation with other passengers and the captain had come down the plane to calm him down.”
But on landing at Manchester at 1.28pm, the passenger’s bizarre behaviour continued.
It is understood that after coming off the plane, down the steps and on to the tarmac, he stripped to his black underpants and gestured towards the pilot.
