This silent, four-minute video captured by an airport surveillance video should be titled “How not to act when you miss a flight.” This soon to be former Chinese mining official threw an epic tantrum when he and his family showed up late to their gate and didn’t take it well when the agent closed the flight. He reportedly missed the same flight the day before, too and this time he went mad by destroying airport computers and a chair as he tried to break the glass door of the jet way. Security personnel watched but didn’t intervene because he outranked them, but I’m sure that ranking won’t last for long as the video went viral in China.
