Passenger subdues suspected terrorist aboard Flight 253

So much for the image of wimpy Europeans who do anything to avoid fighting, especially when it comes to terrorists. Jasper Schuringa, a passenger aboard Northwest Flight 253, fittingly leaped into action when he saw smoke and flames coming from the body of alleged terrorist Umar Farouk Abdul Mutallab, 23, who is suspected of trying to detonate an explosive device while aboard Flight 253 as it neared a landing in Detroit. “It sounded like a firecracker went off,” said Schuringer, who is an action film director, according to nypost.com. Schuringa said he saw some rising from a seat near and without hesitation, leaped toward the suspect in a bold move to do whatever he could to prevent tragedy aboard Flight 253. The heroic passenger aboard Flight 253 yelled for water as put the fire out with only his hand. The suspected Flight 253 terrorist was taken out of his seat and secured in another area of the plane until the plane landed. Lucky for passengers on Flight 253 that Schuringa was aboard the plane.
