- 0:42Speaker 3: So me and a few bodies were headed to like
- 0:45Speaker 3: to Vegas for a guy's weekend, right, And we got
- 0:48Speaker 3: to the airport early, and we started having drinks, and

- 0:54Speaker 3: a couple.
- 0:55Speaker 2: Drinks, you know what I mean.
- 0:56Speaker 3: Yeah, So by the time we were boarding, like as

- 1:02Speaker 3: But by the time we were boarding, like I was,
- 1:04Speaker 3: I was feeling feeling pretty good, you know what I mean.
- 1:06Speaker 2: I was feeling myself like real, real good.
- 1:10Speaker 3: So one of our friends we didn't think was gonna
- 1:13Speaker 3: make it.
- 1:13Speaker 2: He was. He didn't make it. He wasn't there early,
- 1:15Speaker 2: he wasn't drinking, he was running late, and we.
- 1:17Speaker 3: Were thinking like, he's probably gonna miss the flight. At
- 1:20Speaker 3: this point, you know, they started boarding. So my alcohol
- 1:23Speaker 3: fueled brain decided to say I've got this, and without
- 1:27Speaker 3: thinking it through for even two seconds, I decided to
- 1:31Speaker 3: fake having a seizure. WHOA yeah. I was like, if
- 1:37Speaker 3: I do this, they will stop the plane and it
- 1:41Speaker 3: will buy him some time to get there.
- 1:43Speaker 2: Right.
- 1:43Speaker 1: Oh my god, So you wait, you fake having a seizure?
- 1:51Speaker 2: How did it go down?
- 1:52Speaker 1: You're like, first of all, that's that has got to
- 1:55Speaker 1: be an alcohol fueled decision.
- 1:59Speaker 3: I didn't say there was a lot of yeah, there's
- 2:01Speaker 3: not a lot of thinking involved.
- 2:02Speaker 2: It was just kind of a yeah. And I'd like,
- 2:05Speaker 2: you asked, how did it go down?
- 2:06Speaker 3: Well, it was me going down immediately and it.
- 2:10Speaker 2: Was not good.
- 2:12Speaker 3: And then everybody else came down too, like it worked
- 2:14Speaker 3: really well, but not the way I had planned.
- 2:17Speaker 2: People.
- 2:18Speaker 1: So here you are, you're doing your thing, You're faking
- 2:21Speaker 1: a seizure, thinking this is going to stall the plane
- 2:23Speaker 1: from leaving.
- 2:24Speaker 2: So what like, Oh, my buddy's gonna make it, and
- 2:26Speaker 2: I'll be like I'll be fine, you know what.
- 2:28Speaker 1: So what happens.
- 2:29Speaker 3: Everybody both believed what was happening, except for my friends,
- 2:32Speaker 3: but they were smart enough not to get involved.
- 2:35Speaker 2: They were just standing there kind of watching.
- 2:38Speaker 3: Everybody else bought it. Within seconds, flight attendants swarmed me.
- 2:42Speaker 3: You know, people were freaking out. The people at the
- 2:45Speaker 3: check in desk called paramedics and and like they got
- 2:49Speaker 3: you know, it was still I figured like once everyone
- 2:52Speaker 3: showed up, I just kind of snap out of it
- 2:55Speaker 3: and be like, oh, I feel fine, and then it
- 2:57Speaker 3: would be okay to fly.
- 2:58Speaker 2: Apparently that's not how it worked.
- 3:00Speaker 1: Yeah, that's your drunk brain thinging. I wouldn't expect you
- 3:03Speaker 1: to be okay and continue on if you just but.
- 3:06Speaker 2: I don't know how it works. I don't know, I
- 3:08Speaker 2: don't know. You're right. Yeah, I was like, oh, I
- 3:11Speaker 2: just have seizures. It's fine, I'm fine.
- 3:12Speaker 3: But the so paramedics got there and they got close
- 3:16Speaker 3: and they could smell the alcohol in my breath. They
- 3:19Speaker 3: told the captain and he decided that he wasn't comfortable
- 3:24Speaker 3: letting me stay on the flight. I don't know if
- 3:25Speaker 3: you thought something was up, but either way, he was like,
- 3:28Speaker 3: this drunk seizure guy is not coming on the flight.
- 3:32Speaker 2: So the plane took off without me. Oh and I couldn't.
- 3:35Speaker 3: Like yeah, and I couldn't admit that I was faking
- 3:38Speaker 3: the seizure at this point, because.
- 3:39Speaker 2: I was like, I could get in a lot more trouble.
- 3:40Speaker 2: At least my drunk brain said that. To me, it
- 3:42Speaker 2: was like, tell them you're faking it.
- 3:45Speaker 3: So I had to, you know, go to the take
- 3:47Speaker 3: a ride to the hospital.
- 3:49Speaker 2: Go through the whole thing. Oh yeah, And.
- 3:54Speaker 3: The best part is the plane still left before my
- 3:58Speaker 3: friend even made it to the gates.
- 3:59Speaker 1: You didn't get he didn't even get on the plane.
- 4:03Speaker 2: We both didn't get to go. Yeah, oh my god.

- 4:18Speaker 2: a lot.
- 4:19Speaker 3: Once I was at the hospital, I was like, I
- 4:20Speaker 3: feel fine, and then you know, they left.
- 4:22Speaker 2: They let me go.
