Ted Kenney continues his story with Rapport in full wrestling mode as he stops the man from opening the plane’s emergency door.
I get to the bulkhead and Michael has this guy by the collar and manhandling him away from the emergency exit door. Michael tells us he was trying to open the door. Crew and staff where all in the back of the plane so nobody was looking out for our safety except Mr. New York.

All calm now and crew has been talking for a while to this guy. Glad to be around multiple people who would get involved so quickly. Especially Michael.

According to TMZ, the man was confused and thought the emergency door was the bathroom door.
Sources close to American Airlines tell us … airport authorities and FBI spoke to the passenger who tried to open the emergency door, and determined he really was confused … so they let him go. We’re told he continued on a flight from L.A. to Vietnam to visit his mother, who is ill.
Guys excuse was he thought it was the bathroom. Trying to open a door with a window in it that shows your 10,000 feet up and you think it's a bathroom? I'm not buying that.

Kenney also confirmed that the Big 3 players jumped in to help Rapaport. They are all heroes but Rapport deserves credit for keeping a sharp eye and taking action quickly.
Correct. Big 3 players jumped into the fray as well and weren't having it. https://t.co/2G1WUW9vcp
