CNN is reporting that it’s a “misunderstanding.” From the Daily Mail:
Sky News said marshalls were alerted to a passenger who had taken a long time in one of the plane’s toilets. When he emerged, a marshall could smell smoke and asked the man what had happened.
His alleged reply was: ‘I was trying to set my shoes on fire.'”
If this is true, the guy deserves every bit of hassle he gets.
