Scary

Fingers politically correct story reminded me of something that happened to me a while back.

I was 18 and living in America and was returning for a holiday in Oz.

My 14 year old sister and I were travelling together on a flight from Denver to LA and 2 young and very dodgy looking middle-eastern guys sat near us.

As we were taxiing to the runway, they stood up and rushed over to the emergency exit door right in front of us and started fiddling with it.

The hostie told them to sit down but they ignored her and continued on to hang up some sort of scroll on the exit door.

My sister and I shit ourselves, turned to each other and thought ‘This is it!’

Hurriedly they laid some inscripted towels on the floor, knelt on them and started praying.

The hosties were now yelling at them and I felt like telling the hosties “don’t fucking upset them!”

They eventually finished their prayers and returned to the seats, leaving behind several rows of frightened passengers and two shit-scared young Aussie kids.

One of the most terrifying moments of my life.

Lucky I had my brown undies on….
