Jetstar nightmare: Passenger opens emergency exit, slides out of plane at Melbourne Airport

According to reports, a passenger opened the emergency exit of a Jetstar plane and slid down the emergency slide after the plane landed at Melbourne Airport.

The Jetstar plane from Sydney had just landed when a 30-year-old man opened the emergency exit and jumped out after the emergency slide deployed.

“Flight attendants told the man to sit down, he was pacing around, ignoring the crew. There were then shouts from passengers to say ‘sit down’ but he didn’t, pulled open the evacuation door and then slid down the slide,” Sky News presenter Kieran Gilbert reported.

This is a breaking story. More to come.
