Beijing Airport Brawl

The stress of flying, and the outrage of inexplicable and puzzling delays, cross all cultural boundaries, even if some people might express those sentiments differently. That's clear watching this video, which captures the emotional climax of one particularly harrowing tale of air travel delays at the Beijing International Airport, as told by Matt Sheehan of the great China-focused blog, Beijing Cream. The story began with outraged passengers and frustrating delays and, within a few hours, had an airline manager lifting a metal stool over his head, apparently to hurl at the customers.
