The 23-year-old Israeli allegedly started shouting that he would open the emergency doors and kill everyone, in what was described by eyewitnesses as a nervous breakdown. The man apparently complained about the food and the service before the episode.
Passengers on board the plane said the man was restrained by the aircraft crew after he allegedly prayed in Hebrew and then went off on a tirade threatening to open the doors saying it was "God's will."
