Chinese woman chugs Cognac at airport
But the 700ml bottle, costing Dollars 190, was far above the 100ml that security laws allow.
The passenger downed the bottle at about midday after being informed she could not take it on board.
Faced with the choice of missing her flight or throwing away a 0 bottle of liquor, Miss Zhao chased immortality by chugging every drop. She’s a hero to travelers and drunks everywhere.
Unsurprisingly, the alcohol had a somewhat negative effect on the woman, who was spotted rolling around the floor and ‘behaving erratically, ‘ according to the South China Morning Post.
Police officers described the woman, believed to be in her 40s, as screaming and shouting.
Almost all of us can relate to worrying about airport security and checking lists of items not allowed on a plane before packing.
The captain of the Wenzhou-bound flight refused to allow Zhao on the plane on Friday as she was travelling alone, and was concerned that her condition could affect safety on board.
It is reported that despite missing her flight, she thanked police for helping her with the situation. She woke up hours later and made her way home, presumably ordering some in-flight hair of the dog to ease the pain a bit.
Following medical care and treatment, Zhao was collected by her family after being released by police.
