Sweet Jesus… What is Wrong with This Picture???

Categories: News, What is Wrong With This Picture

This man was on an American Airlines flight. He is obviously over capacity for the seat and we’re pretty sure that this is a safety hazard because he is over flowing into the aisle. What we want to know is,

Should the airline employees allow him to fly???

How big is too big to fly???

What would you do in this situation???

  • Bored at work

    That Big is 2Big.. Lol

  • mai2cents

    dang thats sad…airlines be messed up wit it too.. shooot aint no body tryin to pay for 2 seats when you travelin solo. smh*

  • muchluv

    That’s a tough one, difficult to be fair in a situation like this. The dude can’t help it if he is overweight.

  • htown representa!!!

    I agree with muchluv – and they usually make big people buy two tickets.

  • Alasiagyal

    Well, they could have moved him up to the business class section where they have bigger seats for this one occasion, instead of allowing him to fill up the seat and the aisle. That is embarrassing. I wouldn’t know how to address someone that big sitting next to me. Geez!!!

  • REALITY

    (GUCCI) WELL DAMN!

  • andyf

    @muchluv what do u mean he can’t help it its called diet and exercise…
    Not trying to be rude but its helpless attitude such as this that put people and primarily black people at risk for obesity and overweight and poor health!!!
    We gots ta do betta!!!!

  • Ann

    I know it’s wrong, but this picture is funny as H.E.L.L.
    LOL

  • Caramel Goddess

    Come on, now. I mean, maybe he can’t help his size but he d@mn sure knows about it! If it were me, I’d OFFER to pay for an extra seat for my own comfort, safety AND to avoid embarassment.

    But like I said- that’s just me.

  • Get Real

    I was recently in 1st class when shorly before the door shut this church group boarded. One was so big that the attendant told her to just sit in 1st class. The others were average size but kept demanding to sit in some open seats in 1st class out of shear jealousy. The attendants kept telling them no. I could see the look on the fat lady’s face. She was hoping they would chill before the flight attendant just yelled out, “Look, I put your fat azz friend in 1st class cause she can’t fit a coach seat.” Instead of understanding, the other big hat wearing church ladies were too busy hating.

  • ValleyGirl

    Nonsense. Why are Americans so dang fat?

  • grant

    make his fat a** pay for two seats….fat a** America, that’s why we don’t need to worry about universal health care until we can get people to stop eating fast food 3 times a day….

  • Get Real

    America is the only country with fat poor people.

  • Manic

    I don’t feel sorry him. He is fat and needs to get rid of that weight.

  • D in LA

    He is too big. They would have to kick him off and make him buy 2 seats to travel and give him a special seatbelt, the baby seat belt extension. Real talk. He has to buy 2 seats to travel, safety risk with him in the aisle

  • http://www.soapdish.socialgo.com Saytoodles

    Shame man, that can’t be too comfortable for him

  • drenk

    i kno whats wrong ITS PHOTOSHOPPED!!!

  • DA

    Common sense he cant be blocking the isle. He is a safety hazard if something goes down and you need to get to an exit hell block everyone thats behind him. They should sit people like him away from the emergency exits or at the safety exits so they wont slow people down. Common sense but everyone is probably too scared or dont want to embarrass him. I would just try to sit in a seat in front of him so I wont be in danger.

  • http://bossip deeprincess

    I would like to think that they didn’t make this man fly to wherever for God only knows how long like that. Unbelievable.

  • http://Bossip lady-mxj

    ugh! He poses a safety hazard. And he look like he stink. The waitresses can’t even get through the aisle with the cart. If there was an emergency, I would just stomp right over him.

  • http://bossip MoniSings

    The dude sitting next to him is looking like, “WTF?” That’s too much to be spilling out into the aisle like that. But something about that pic doesn’t sit right. Not 100% sure it’s real. I’ve seen smaller people than him have to pay for two seats. That is a safety hazard for sure right there.

  • Nfatu8ed

    He should pay for two tickets and occupy two seats, its not discrimination, its just common sense

  • Smoovee Sayz

    looks like big boy needs to WALK to wherever he flyin too…hell he might loose about ten sizes

  • Smoovee Sayz

    lose*

  • Dr. O

    “Smoovee Sayz ”
    “looks like big boy needs to WALK to wherever he flyin too…hell he might loose about ten sizes”

    Bwwwwaaaahhhh hahaha !!! bY FAR THE BEST COMMENT ON THIS POST !!

  • Meisha

    How the people behind him ‘spose to get their snacks?!!

    Listen. When a large person sits next to me on the train on the way to work I DON’T PLAY DAT. I refuse to be uncomfortable on a long flight. I paid, too!!!

  • UkFunKY

    Honestly i would just stare and wonder WHY? …. KMT

  • http://esaw@rock.com REAL TALK

    2 CHEAP TO PAY FOR 2 SEATS REAL TALK

  • Sxy Lxy 28

    They should’ve ast him in the cargo bay.

  • Sxy Lxy 28

    No one in front of him is gonna be able to get to the bath room. They put him in the middle to keep the plane balanced.

  • Sxy Lxy 28

    My mistake. They should’ve sat him in the cargo bay.

  • Whaaaa

    C’mon Son!

  • red trini

    i feel sorry for the man next to him. and i feel sorry for him. you can never tell someone’s situation. we can only guess why he is fat and why he hasn’t paid for two seats.

  • curtdogg42

    they should have a special seat for big and tall people im 6’6 when i asked to sit by the emergency door of the plane because they have a little more leg room the FED told me i was under investigation. go figure.

  • Ms. Littlejohn

    LOL at the guy next to him looking at him crazy!

  • Kat

    I’m pretty sure that’s shopped. It doesn’t look right. And if it’s not, I dont’ blame him for being fat because he’s as tall sitting down as most people would be standing up. Proportionately he’s not that fat- just a big individual… unbelievably large… which again makes me think it’s Photoshopped.

  • Ara

    The airlines need to think about having some seats that are extra wide, extra large, something. They know there are some big people in the world. They need to be accomodated just like the handicap. Sidenote …… that’s a big azz man.

  • Angeline

    Aw man, I feel so bad for that guy. I bet it was embarrassing to be gawked at and judged like that. I would’ve just paid for two seats or took the bus.

  • Unimaginative_Trolls_get_your_own_screen_name

    Ohmigod, I’ve GOT to hit that gym on the regular!!!!

  • MIKE

    THE AIRLINES SHOULD EITHER HAVE SPECIAL SEATS FOR OVERWEIGHT PASSENGERS OR CHARGE THEM FOR TWO SEATS. THERE IS NO REASON WHY PEOPLE SITTING NEXT TO THEM WHO PAID THEIR FARE SHOULD HAVE TO SUFFER BEING INCONVENIENCED BY SOMEONE ELSE. IT ISN’T FAIR FOR THE NEIGHBOR EITHER.

  • Miss Beasley

    Major wedgie game PROPER!

    So how they gone pass drinks?

  • just me

    The plane would NOT have been allowed to FLY with him in the aisle. The 2 empty seats behind him are probably his.

  • androidnancy (LOVE AMBER ROSE)

    Shoot, they need to extend the whole “if you’re obese, you have to pay for two seats” to the MTA subway system. I’m sitting down in the 4 train and this ‘ol hefty boy decides to plop down into the seat. Like, you don’t know you’re a tellatubby?

  • BOSSIP IS WHACK!

    Um, no he needs to take his on a boat or something. That’s incredibly dangerous for him, the plane, and the other passengers.

  • nywoman23

    TY @ANDYF FOR TELLING MUCHLUV THAT. BECAUSE I WAS GONNA SAY THE SAME THING. SOMEWHAT. I WILL SAY THOUGH IT IS HARD OT LOSE WEIGHT THOUGH. SERIOUSLY.HE SHOULD HAVE TRIED TO COME UP WITH A WAY TO BUY 2 SEATS AND BY THE WINDOW. I DONT KNOW TOUGH CALL. I DONT KNOW

  • emmie

    That has to be an altered photo, it would be against FAA regulations for the plane to even take off with him sitting on the seat like that. He is required to purchase to seats if he can’t fit into one. He would however be reimbursed for the second seat if the flight didn’t sell out.

  • Laurelaxoxo

    I feel that Airlines should have custom made seats for over-sized people because they are just like us just over weight. and its not fare for only mid size to small size people get a chance on the airplane. Save the embarassment and build a plain with a couple of Big seats even though it might cost the person extra $. its only fare.

  • ValeyVal

    LMAO

  • darealwifey

    Of course he should have been able to fly! They should have given him two seats because CLEARLY he physically needed them. This guy is no different than someone with a disability. It is ILLEGAL to not accommodate people with disabilities. I see empty seats, so they could have moved the middle guy to another seat.

  • Unimaginative_Trolls_get_your_own_screen_name

    its a shame how fast America has become.

  • Poor guy

    Regardless to why he is overweight, he’s still a human with feelings and shouldn’t be embarassed anymore than he already is. I agree with some viewers, charge him for two seats or move him to business class. Also, the person sitting next to him shouldn’t have to be uncomfrotable because the airlines are being cheat and careless

  • http://styleandvogue.blogspot.com DarkEmpress

    @ Get real… wow you really just opened my eyes with that comment that America is the only country where the poor ppl are fat. How crazy is that, poor ppl are starving in other parts of the world and bc healthy foods are more expensive in north america than junk food the poor are overweight. SMH

  • dia

    ok i dont feel sorry, hes covering the aisle!! thats not safe at all, when he knows he would have been fine in two. and i couldnt stop laffing at that caption on the pic

  • shopaholic22

    ROFL he shud hav the entire row

  • Destroy All Cars Made by Saturn

    I’m sorry, but this is funny. I refuse to believe that that weight is put on without a lot of food, so I can laugh because , in my opinion, he chose to be that big. And if I was on that flight and he came to sit beside me. Jesus Take the Wheel, because I would go off on that flight attendant. It’s funny how the row behind him is empty. Those people were probably move to first class for health and safety concerns. He’s probably in the middle of the plane to keep if it from leaning to much in the front or back. He’s keeping the plane balanced, but they are spending more gas with him traveling.

  • Destroy All Cars Made by Saturn

    I agree that he is a human, but I think he should rent a pick up truck to travel. They have some nice ones with comfortable bench seats.

  • Lisa

    This is so fake.

  • Jules

    This dude needs to walk. By the time he gets wherever he is going, he’ll be the right size.

  • AWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWSHADDAAAP!!!!!

    *b a s t a r d

  • noladebby

    The censorship here is ridiculous. Why was n.o.b.o.d.y and p.a.s.s.e.n.g.e.r.s blurred out?

  • jamal K

    If I didn’t know any better I would think that the guy in the seat is Former KU football coach Mark Mangino!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Yoda

    Woh!

    Good Photoshop job though.

  • lone wolf

    the man is not only overweoght, i mean look at his size. he looks like 6 ft

  • sexyprettysista

    ***** against

  • http://bossip THETRUTH

    First of all….the seat behind him as TWO empty seats right next to each other. Why didn’t the airline place the over weight guy in those seats? Perhaps the airlines should have one or two double capacity seats that they charge 50% or so more for?

  • ninal

    well i just think its sad when people get this big . I mean come on thats really big I think they should just make him pay a little more for another seat so they can make sure he’s comfortable along with everyone else who paid there money.

  • ericka the sh$# disturber

    he’s not completely seated. it looks as though he is in the process of sitting down. but he’s still a big ‘un. bless his heart LMFAO

  • charlotte

    I hate sitting next to fat people on crowded planes and buses. They spill out to my seat and we’re forced to sit there touching. Its just gross. The airlines need to ask them to purchase two seats or get off.

  • http://soundcloud.com/ggoodei-mc/tracks GGooDeiMC

    Well…fat folks have to fly too.

    If I was a stewardess I would have told him to switch seats with someone so that he can have a three seater to himself, but that is just damn ridiculous…off the top!

  • cherokee23

    a whole row of seats behind him…to the back buddy!

  • peezy

    OMG wth would i do…I would complain to the airlines about this! This is a safety hazard, and i would be sooooo uncomfortable sitting next to him!

  • nene

    Damn, they make sure you put your purses and bags under your seats and out of the aisle when you fly, but gonna allow a half of a body to chill out in the aisle is very dangerous.

  • me

    Dude has a body only a mother could love.

  • Lee Lee

    The picture isn’t cropped it was on the news yesterday. An airline hostess took the shot, and if the find out which one did it, she’s going to be in lots of trouble. But this pic is funny as hell. I would have asked the hostess to find me another seat because I would NOT want to sit next to him.
