Threatening, yelling loudly, being a nuisance to your fellow passengers — those things will all get you kicked off an airplane, sure, but will they get you banned from an entire airline for life? Probably not. If you want to make certain an entire fleet of airplanes refuses to share the friendly skies with you, you’ve got to do something as complex as mile-high hero Tom Washington.

Too much build-up, you say? While on British low-cost airline Jet2, Washington, 22, of Grimsby, in England, not only dressed up as a female cabin-crew member with more than 20 of his friends, he also tried to give the safety talk to other passengers before doing something even more special.

Here is what he told Metro, in his own words:

‘I got up but because my jacket was too tight, it exposed my chest which I had covered with a bra.

‘I then proceeded to help the cabin staff with the safety talk using a sex toy.’

And then:

‘The lads mentioned I had a tattoo of Pinocchio, which I showed them, and that was the point where the manager took my passport.’

What Washington doesn’t mention is that the tattoo of Pinocchio is not on his arms or chest. It’s on his genitals. Here’s what it looks like:

The tattoo is pretty hilarious (although Washington will probably regret it when he’s 80), but I guess showing a plane full of people what Pinocchio’s nose does when he lies is a no-no. Washington has been banned from flying Jet2 for life.
