A man has been handed over to police after stripping off and shouting on a flight from Manchester Airport.
An airline said that police were called over the "intoxicated" man who was aboard a flight from Manchester to Turkey. He was said to be risking the safety of holidaymakers flying with him.
The Brit passenger seated next to him, who asked to be kept anonymous, filmed the ordeal. Footage showed the man - described as "unruly" - shouting and kicking at the seat in front.

The man - who appears topless in the second half of the clip - said: "People are scared of me. I wonder why."
The passenger sat next to the disruptive man explained what had happened as he said: "After taking off the stewardess asked if they could put another passenger next to me. He kept shouting and as he was getting up he was knocking my partner and kids. People kept coming over and asking him to be quiet.
“The stewardess said they were going to divert the plane but I said ‘please don’t do that, I want to go on holiday ’. It was progressively getting worse, he took his shoes, top and socks off and had his feet up high, screaming and shouting. The stewardess said they had contacted the police".
Corendon Airlines said the incident took place on a flight from Manchester to Antalya on July 10. A spokesperson for Corendon Airlines said: "The flight was operated by another airline as a wet-lease operation on behalf of Corendon Airlines.
"The cabin crew determined a passenger who is intoxicated, making other passengers unsafe and the work environment of the flight crew uneasy which we call 'Unruly Passenger' in aviation terms.
"The cabin crew put all their effort to look over him and care for other passengers. Since the passenger did not comply with any of the requirements and notifications he was given, police were requested by the captain at Antalya Airport and upon landing the passenger was escorted by the police.
"All the actions that the civil aviation authorities require in this kind of position were taken successfully."
