So there was a hijacking on an Egyptian airliner the other day when some idiot trying to get back with his ex-wife strapped a fake bomb to his chest and diverted the Cairo-bound flight to Cyprus. That’s when a British jokester saw the once in a lifetime opportunity to pose for a picture with the guy who was holding him hostage and he took it:
His name is Ben Innes, and he is a legend. Absolute legend. Sure, some people would try to tackle the would-be fake terrorist or escalate the situation. But that was before God invented Instagram. Awesome sunglasses too. In all honesty, it seemed pretty implausible from the start that this guy was a real terrorist. For starters he’s old, skinny, and seemingly acting alone. Pretty sure ISIS wouldn’t send the geriatric retiree to do such an important job. Also pretty sure no one in ISIS lives to be this guy’s age. Might as well snap a photograph so you can show your kids proof that you took on a terrorist and survived. Pretty bad ass street cred right there.
Anyway, the friendship was real and Ben was one of the final three hostage released at the airport:
The best part was the message he sent to his homey afterwards:
“You know your boy doesn’t fuck about.” Is “fuck about” how British people say “fuck around?” Because if it is then I might need to add that to the Turtleboy vocabulary. Turn on the news lad!!

He looks like he’s having a blast.
Social media really exposes how far we’ve fallen as a species. “This guy is gonna kill us! But it’ll make a great post!”
I love the way the press keeps saying he took a selfie with him……. it wasn’t a selfie (they can’t even get that right …. or just using the word for the sake of using the word))
The last geriatric terrorist bomber recently exploded his laptop and got sucked out of the plane, making himself the only casualty. Karma was a bitch that day.
Sorry,don’t see the humor. You don’t fuck around with that shit,especially these days.
Cue the killjoy…..
