AVIATION

3 August

A man identifying as a comedian with Jammer TV named Jamie DeGeorge uploaded a 45-second video to TikTok, showing his interaction with a Southwest Airlines captain prior to a recent flight. The man was walking down the jet bridge and passed the captain. Here’s how the interaction goes: Passenger: “Are you the pilot of this flight?” Captain: “Yeah, what’s up?” Passenger: “You haven’t been drinking or anything, have you?” Captain: “You know what, that’s the stupidest f*cking thing you could say.” Passenger: “I’m joking around.” Captain: “No, I’m not joking.” Passenger: “It’s a joke, sir.” Captain: “No, I’m not joking, I can kick you off right now.” Passenger: “I’m joking, oh my God. You ever heard of a joke? I’m a comedian.” Captain: “Come here. All right. You don’t do that. And the reason is because that gentleman right there, and anyone else who is around, now doubts what I do for a living. I don’t go into your work and say sh*t. …” Passenger: “I’m very sorry I offended you. I understand.” Bottom line – this is not a subject to be joked about.
