Watch: Holidaymaker takes action after passenger stretched 'smelly foot' under his plane seat

A holidaymaker got revenge on a fellow passenger who poked her 'smelly' foot under his seat on a Jet2 flight - by pouring fizzy pop on her sock until she moved. Daniel Green was on a flight to The Algarve, Portugal, last month when 20 minutes into the flight he was repulsed by a strong "cheese" smell.

The 31-year-old checked under his seat to find the stench was coming from a passenger on the row behind who had taken her shoes off and stretched her legs so far her foot encroached his footwell. Baffling footage shows Daniel pouring a couple of drops of Tango fizzy pop onto the 'dirty-looking' sock so she'd move her feet out of his smelling range.

As the liquid soaks into the sock her foot can be seen moving "as if to wonder what happened" and slowly retreat back to its own footwell. Daniel's video has been viewed more than half a million times with users split over whether the stunt was a "great flight hack" or if he should have left the fellow holidaymaker alone.
