On May 25, 2000, Philippines Air Flight 812 was hijacked by a man wearing a ski mask, swimming goggles and armed with a grenadeĀ and pistol. He demanded money and began robbing passengers of their valuables.
The man then commanded the pilot to descend at 6000 ft to depressurize the airplane so the door could be opened, allowing him to escape using a makeshift parachute.
Just before his jump, the hijacker asked the crew to show him how to do it using a nylon parachute he brought with him. Seeing that the make shift parachute apparently had no rip cord, one of the pilots took a curtain sash and attached it to the homemade parachute. When he reached the door, the hijacker hesitated, and that's when one of the flight attendants straight kicked him out of door.
He separated from the parachute in midair and plunged to his death somewhere on a mountain in Quezon. His body was recovered a few days later. The plane landed safely and no one else was injured.
By far one of the most comical hijackings in recent history and fucks were practically non existent on all sides. #skymiles #stayzero #zerofoxtrot
