Horses on a Plane 11-16-2023, 07:26 PM
#1
Title isn't as good as "Snakes on a Plane" but you get the point.
Code:
A Boeing 747 cargo jet has been forced to turn around, after a horse escaped from its stall and caused chaos as the plane cruised at 30,000ft (9,144m).
The plane was headed to Belgium from New York but did a U-turn roughly 90 minutes after its departure when the animal got loose.
Air traffic control audio recorded the pilot saying: "We have a live animal, a horse, on board the airplane. The horse managed to escape."
"We cannot get the horse back secured."
Source
Man phones wife: Sorry honey, I'm going to be late coming home, the plane had to turn back around.
Wife: Why?
Man: Have you heard the horse escaping? It’s a terrible tale of WHOA!

That's actually the coolest thing I've seen.

I think there's also been a case of an escaped bear, though I'd have to google to track down the article on it.

The live air traffic control is an interesting listen.

LOL I didn't know this was available for public hearing. The ability for everyone not to laugh is the most impressive thing. True professionals!

That’s actually crazy, free the horses though. They don’t deserve to be locked up

It's not imprisonment for torture or abuse. It's just transport.
Although, if you're into animal welfare there's a really heartwarming show about Beluga whales being moved from captivity back into the ocean. It's especially impressive as they have to take the whales to the ocean sanctuary via plane. Really fascinating how they do it.

I never knew how much the transportation of horses peaked my curiosity until now...

That's actually insane, why would they be transporting a bear lmaoo. I believe it but it's very surprising.
