Fred Wynn, a passenger on the plane, recounted, "Boyfriend and girlfriend were arguing behind in me. Boyfriend got mad, got up walked down the center aisle, grabbed the emergency door, ripped it off, completely off."
In an audio recording archived by LiveATC.net, one pilot described the chaos: "I can hear all the passengers screaming. Looks like they tried to grab him before he went out."
The Federal Aviation Administration stated that the Airbus A320, while on a taxiway, had its emergency exit opened, causing the slide to deploy and delaying the flight by almost three hours.
