We've all been there - you get to your seat, and someone else has already taken ownership of the armrest, which includes part of your space. In most cases, a quick smile and "hi" is enough to create a mutual understanding on sharing the one and a half inches of precious space.

Sadly, not everyone shares that concept - like 31 year old Khodar Ahmad. This Toronto man was on his way to Frankfurt when he got into a fight with his seatmate. His attitude was apparently aggressive enough to warrant a flight diversion to Montreal, where he was kicked off the plane.

This is where the story takes a really interesting twist - Ahmad was lucky, because even though he caused a flight diversion, the cops were not waiting for him in Montreal. So, instead of being arrested and forced to pay a fine for the flight diversion, he was simply left on his own. At that point, this idiot should have counted himself very, very lucky.

Instead, he waltzed over to the Air Canada ticket desk, and demanded that the airline put him on another flight, or even a bus back to Toronto. His scene caught the attention of the local airport police, who arrested him. He's now in a Montreal detention center where he'll spend the next 30 days. It is pretty impressive to do something so monumentally stupid once - but twice in one evening takes a very special kind of stupid.
