A plane passenger has been arrested after allegedly attempting to open an emergency door during a flight.

The terrifying moment happened as the man was suspected of being under the influence of psychedelic drugs.

Other flyers claim that he lost control during the journey, with some of them having to help crew members pin the man to his seat.

He was tied to his seat with rope to keep him from causing further issues on the plane.

The flight took off from Taiwan and was heading to Bangkok, Thailand.

With the man detained, the aircraft was able to safely land at Suvarnabhumi Airport in Bangkok.

Upon arrival, the young man, who is from Thailand, was arrested by police.

One passenger filmed on their mobile phone as officers entered the jet.

Airport personnel also boarded the plane and the man got up from his seat before being placed under arrest.

It has been said that he kept asking the police ‘Where are we?’, as reported by Need To Know.

He was on a work trip, it is understood.
After learning that the plane had arrived in Thailand, he also stated that effects from the drugs had ‘subsided’.

Psychedelic drugs can cause confusion, paranoia, and hallucinations.

It happened last Thursday (19 Dec) on a Thai Airways flight.

Thai Airways has been approached for comment.
