An idiot tourist kicked a plane door in a hysterical rage after arriving late for his flight.

The American tourist reportedly showed up at the flight gate after it had closed.

When staff refused him entry, he reportedly breached the security cordon and tried to board the plane.

After finding the passenger entry door closed, he began kicking it over and over in frustration.

His furious outburst was filmed by a passenger in a window seat.

The exasperated young man could be seen banging on the window.

He dropped to his knees as he yelled: “Let me in.”

He even fiddled with a joystick on the boarding bridge in his desperate bid to get onto the plane.

The bizarre scenes were filmed in the early hours of Friday (23 Aug), as reported by Need To Know.

The US citizen was supposed to board LATAM flight 4090 from Bogotá to Cartagena, Colombia.

Police and security personnel intervened and took him to the airport migration office, where he allegedly assaulted an official.

He was deported from Colombia within hours, according to local media.

Daniel Gallo of the Colombian Air Transport Workers’ Union said: “This disruptive passenger first attacked the ground staff after being told that the flight had already closed and he had arrived late.

“He then forcefully proceeded to the boarding gate, and when he couldn’t get on the plane, he chose to breach flight security.”

​​Local media did not report the passenger’s name.

Gallo added: “This man had an aggressive demeanour that put both the staff and other travellers at risk.”
