Obese Air Passenger Photo Begs Us to Ponder Ethics

Obese

I’m not sure where to go with this one but here’s the story…

An obese passenger boarded an American Airlines flight without buying a second seat, so a flight attendant took a photo of him and stuck it on the Internet.

There are numerous sides to this story (including fat jokes which I won’t even go near) but the main one is why didn’t the guy buy two seats?  We can’t really know the answer and it’s quite possible that the man had a condition.  Afterall it would truly suck to sit like that for an entire flight.

On the other if he was just being a dick and wanted the man next to him to suffer, then that’s not cool.

Lastly,  what about exiting the plane in case of an emergency?  This isn’t even a joke.  It would be a major safety hazard and people wouldn’t be able to get out as quickly.

It’s a moral debate but face it folks….would you guys want this dude on your plane sitting next to you?  I didn’t think so.
