A passenger aboard an Air Canada flight from Toronto to Dubai opened a cabin door and fell to the tarmac before takeoff Monday evening, injuring themselves and causing lengthy delays.
The plane, a Boeing 777, was sitting on the tarmac at Toronto Pearson International Airport preparing for takeoff when the incident took place.
Air Canada confirmed to Global News that during the boarding of flight AC056, a passenger “who had boarded the aircraft normally,” opened a cabin door on the opposite side of the aircraft, instead of going to their seat while the aircraft was at the gate.
As a result, the passenger sustained injuries falling to the tarmac, and emergency services and authorities were called in.

You enter the hallway. There is a door in the north wall with a red handle that says “Do not open.” There is also an open door in the east wall with first class seats in view. What do you do?
How shiny is the red handle? That shine might be too inviting.
Roll for stupidity.
Realise that you have not booked first class and move through the closed door to the economy seats. Spend no time reading any signs on that other door, because you are convinced the other way is wrong.
Take all.
