So Mel Gibson goes on a rage about his ex-girlfriend and Christian Bale goes nuts on the “Terminator: Salvation” set, but Steven Slater gets a free pass? Really people, how does this make the Jet Blue guy a hero? Did he save people’s lives on that plane? No? Did Steven help anybody? No. He just lost his temper on a job. That was it. He went nuts after getting hit in the head with luggage, he’s a hero for that? Wow, that’s even more comical than the story itself. Why does the online world worship this guy so much?
People lose their tempers on jobs. It happens all the time! WHO CARES!!!
It seems to me that Steven was just in a bad mood at the time the incident happened. Maybe he was stressed out ’cause of long hours on the plane or maybe having problems with other staff. Plus, I’ve read reports that other passengers found him a very rude person before that incident happened.
Everyone online is acting like that this guy is so lovable and great, when they need a reality check that guy could actually be a douchebag in real life. Steven was yelling and screaming at a woman. How is that cool? Why don’t Slater try talking like that to a man. Slater wouldn’t dare try to talk like that to a bodybuilder type of guy ’cause if he did, he probably would have been knocked out, he wouldn’t know that it even happened.

My friend simply put big yellow slides make everything better. I’ve always wanted to slide down one of those slides. Also the other two where are ready famous, and mel beat the crap out of his girl which i’m sure we all agree is a whole nother level. I’m with you in thinking SS is more an asshole(drunk asshole) than a hero but you got to admit it’s a funny story (mainly due to the slide) and there really isn’t anything funny about the other two.
