Yet another altercation has erupted on board an airplane. This time it was on board an ANA flight that looks to be returning from Japan, according to the Twitter timeline of the man who took the video.
In the video you can see two men in an all-out brawl, fully fist fighting. As of now, there is no known reason why the fight took place, but the instigator seems to shout “America!” and “You think I’m crazy? What about the government!”
The man who took the video, Corey Hour, described the event in a series of tweets:
So, 10 minutes before take off a passenger starts a huge fight in his row. I get in between him and flight attendants, but he won’t 1v1 me.

He yells, “You think I’m crazy? What about the government!” Then exits the plane. 1.5 hours later and we finally take off. jfc

For the record ANA staff and passengers handled the situation with grace and respect. They did the best they could to diffuse the situation.

The video ended when I stepped in & confronted the man in the red shirt. I told him to leave and squared up with him, he backed down n left.

As of now and after speaking with the other passengers the motive for why he did this is still UNKNOWN. None of us have any idea why at all.

According to LADbible, who published the video, “The man in the shirt was subsequently arrested for assault and public intoxication at the airport in Japan.” Seeing as they’re both wearing shirts, they likely meant the guy with the torn shirt who was escorted off the plane.
What is happening with people right now, more than usual, that they think violence is the answer to all their problems? Who does this? Grow up, already.
