A strange event involving an old man urinating close to an airplane on the runway at Bihar's Darbhanga Airport has gone viral. The concerning incident occurred when a man in traditional white kurta-pajama attire was spotted squatting dangerously close to an aircraft on an active runway. The event was captured on video by the pilot from the cockpit, showing the individual positioned in a grassy area just meters away from the aircraft.
The individual's positioning in the grassy area adjacent to the runway suggests a breach of multiple layers of airport security measures. Such areas are typically restricted and monitored to prevent unauthorized access due to the critical nature of aircraft operations. Airport authorities maintain multiple security layers, including perimeter fencing, surveillance systems, and security patrols, to prevent such unauthorized access. This incident may prompt a review of these security measures. However, the 9-second video has been viewed more than 285,000 times, with social media users responding in a combination of laughter and worry.
These are some wacky reactions:
One of the users said, "Accha hai na itna samanya darje k log b plane me travel kar rahe hain." Which roughly translates to,"Its good that even common people are traveling by plane."
Another user said, "Accurate way to urinate."
In the backdrop, other passengers are lined up to board the aircraft while a voice that is perceived to be the pilot laughs.
Another said, “Mera desh badal raha hai aage badh raha hai😂😂. Biharis never fail to surprise us.”
Some went on to school the man and the pilot.
A user commented, “Airport terminals have sufficient toilets, but still these idiots would do it in the open. Disgusting civic sense of some Indians, they would never learn.”
“Pilots making fun of old person. Old people have problems controlling the bladder. Shameful”, said another.
The proximity of the individual to active aircraft operations created a hazardous situation that could have impacted flight safety. Aircraft movements require clear and unobstructed runway areas to ensure safe takeoffs and landings.
The Airports Authority of India (AAI) is yet to release an official response to the incident. It is as yet unknown whether the man was a passenger or a staffer, or from which airline's cockpit the clip was shot.
