Passengers Take Down Austere Moslem Religious Scholar Who Yelled “Allahu Akbar” And Tried to Open Exit Door During Flight (Video)

The terrorist started screaming to Allah and then, without much hesitation, there came Victor Troboloni.

A crazed man yelling ‘Allahu Akbar’ tried to open a door in the middle of a flight from Israel to England Monday—before a brave passenger stepped up and tackled him.

Victor Troboloni, an Albanian who was on his way to visit his ailing mother in London, grabbed the hulking, unidentified attacker and held him down with other passengers while crew members zip-tied him.

Troboloni told the Sun:

It was a very scary situation.

He then added that he was thinking:

I might never see my mother again.

The hero wasn’t about to miss that trip to see mom, was he?

It takes some real guts to bolt into action like that, but somebody had to do it.

Here is some partially obscured video to perhaps get a better idea of how this all went down:

We really never know what to expect these days when we’re up in the air like that. Victor Troboloni deserves a huge amount of credit for his bravery. All it took was one man to lead the response and more inevitably followed.

Speaking of Victor, below he explained the ordeal:

He tried to open the fire exit, he was sitting at the back and it’s easy to open a fire exit, just pull the handle and that’s it.

I got the guy down. He was very heavyweight … I headlocked him and the stewardesses tied his hands with plastic cable ties … I had to do it.

Fellow passengers helped Troboloni hold him down until a flight attendant could find cable ties to restrain him until the plane touched down in Eastern Europe.

I held him for 10 minutes, he got out of breath, he got tired, he was tied up for 45 minutes to 1 hour before we landed in Belgrade.

Bravo, Mr. Troboloni. And thank you.
