From the Associated Press:
A SkyWest Airlines flight from Helena, Mont., to Salt Lake City was diverted to Idaho Falls after a passenger began banging on the cockpit door, saying he was a space alien and wanted to fly the plane.
This is the greatest true news story I’ve heard in awhile. Makes you want to call up the FBI and page Agent Mulder to get on the case right away. How mentally ill does someone have to be to really believe that number one, they are not human and instead are an alien. Two, that they would not have garnered some sort of attention earlier on by people in the airport like security at the airport itself? I suppose that the guy might have had some sort of reaction to the elevation levels or something once the plane was flying. That or his medication wore off mid-flight. But, just to consider all sides or what have you of this story, what if this Las Vegas man truly *is* an alien? What if there really are aliens living here amongst us? As Agent Mulder would say, “Do you believe in the existence of extraterrestrials?”
