The video shared two days ago received many likes, comments and views from social media users. One user wrote, "I think before departure, they clearly announce that removing the life jacket from the plane is a punishable offence." "Report to airlines and aviation security, so as they have a lifetime ban on airlines, if this were any other country, they would have done it," a second user added. "It’s high time to implement civic sense classes in Academics!!!" added a third user.
"I once saw a person trying to steal an ATM passbook machine. Instead of recording a video to humiliate him or expose him publicly, I chose to approach him calmly and talk. I explained how such actions are harmful to society and how they would ultimately lead him nowhere. I encouraged him to take the right path and even guided him to the ATM, showing him a better way to access money. Sometimes, a little understanding can do more than judgment," a fourth user added. "Why are you shaming him on social media? You can handle it by taking him aside- Incidents like this can traumatise the person," added another user.
"It's not his fault; many airlines give many complimentary items, maybe he thought it was complimentary. He looks like a simple guy. The airlines should inform beforehand that it's not to be taken. The airline purser has unprofessional behaviour with his voice raised. And shaming the passenger before fellow travellers. I'm sure the guy paid for his ticket. Moreover, this guy has put it on social media," wrote another user.
