Here’s what apparently happened, based on a summary by FlyerTalk member hayzel7773:

• 2hr30min into the flight, the passenger said he needed to use the business class bathroom (he said he couldn’t fit into the economy bathroom)
  The crew accommodated him, and three flight attendants as well as the purser assisted him to the bathroom
  
  A minute after entering the lavatory, the passenger pushed the call button; when the flight attendant opened the door, his genitals were exposed, but his underwear was still on in the back; he told them they needed to help him take off his underwear, or he’d just go in them
  
  He sat down and spread his leg, exposing his genitals
  
  They tried to close the door, but he objected, claiming he was having shortness of breath from claustrophobia and that they need to keep it open; the crew refused, but kept the door unlocked
  
  15 minutes later he said he was done, and they opened the door to find him still sitting there with his pants at his ankles; “I’m done, you can wipe my butt now.”
  
  The flight attendant objected, and then he berated her, saying she promised to do it, and since she promised she needed to do it or he would just sit on the toilet for the rest of the flight
  
  The crew obliged, realizing they can’t just leave him there the whole flight, so they threw a blanket in front of him, which he refused; the purser wiped, while the other flight attendants held his front
  
  While the purser wiped he allegedly says “mmmmmm, deeper, deeper”
  
  The purser ended up having to wipe on three separate occasions, as the guy claimed she didn’t do it correctly; he said “you better have wiped me clean”
  
  Eventually the flight attendants just pulled his pants up, even though he insisted they do it again, and he threatened to faint if she didn’t
  
  The passenger was brought back to his seat, but later in the flight he had to go #2 again, so a different group of flight attendants did the same

Also revealed is some of this guy’s history with EVA Air:

• He also flew from Los Angeles to Bangkok via Taipei in May 2018, where he made a similar request, but flight attendants refused; so he went #2 in his seat, and apparently the whole cabin smelled terrible for the rest of the flight
  
  He peed himself on another flight
  
  On another flight he asked a crew member to clean and change his diaper; they refused, so his diaper overflowed
  
  On another flight he threatened to faint and make the crew’s life worse if they didn’t help him
  
  On another flight, he spilled juice in his crotch area and demanded the crew wipe it; they gave him napkins to do it, but he said “you can do better”

The union is demanding the following:

• The airline to help the flight attendant pursue legal remedies against the passenger
  
  Allow time off for the flight attendants involved (based on the video they seem to be really disturbed by all of this, as they’re crying, etc.)
  
  Blacklist the passenger, and improve the procedure for getting passengers blacklisted
  
  Improve wheelchair handling so that something like this doesn’t happen again

What does fat shaming have to do with being a racist?



Anyway, what's wrong with a little fat shaming? We're growing soft as a global community.

Unless you have a legitimate reason, like your thyroid gland is clogged with Vegemite, like what happened to Stropmeister, then it's probably good for you to be shamed a little.

Just so you don't lull yourself into a delusional state and start thinking that everything is fine and being obese is not a life threatening condition with lasting and far reaching repercussions.

Years ago, when I went through boot camp there were a group of about 5 guys that were borderline as far as maintaining the body weight standards.

The drill instructors grouped them together and started calling them the 'fat-fuck brigade'. I've never witnessed a group more motivated to lose weight in my life. And they did...with the quickness.
