Woman goes down baggage chute at Swedish airport
STOCKHOLM (AFP) - An elderly woman misunderstood instructions while checking in at Sweden's main airport and was whisked down a baggage chute after she placed herself instead of her luggage on the belt, media reported Wednesday.
The 78-year-old woman, who was not named, was preparing to fly from Stockholm's Arlanda airport to Germany on Tuesday when she lay down on an unmanned baggage belt in the belief she was following check-in instructions, the Upsala Nya Tidning local daily reported on its website.
She was quickly swept off to the baggage handling centre, where staff members helped get her back on her feet.
The woman suffered no serious injury and caught her flight as planned. |
Oh man. How the hell does that happen? hahaha
(Since she's okay I don't feel bad for laughing. :lol:)

don't elderly people have to bring like... a note from their doctor that they are able to fly w/o any problems? (they are obliged to do that over here ...)
