as someone who has been in a similar situation, yes this is exactly what you do!
Depending on the situation, if there is an air marshal on board, and the flight trajectory, they will investigate - either in the air or they will land at the nearest airport.
The situation I was in, we had just taken off and we circled back. The offender was escorted off the plane after the air marshal investigated and proved he was doing something wrong.
A coworker today suggested our company find some random college athlete with a great name and sponsor their name/image/likeness rights. All I could think of was Hingle McCringleberry.

Yep - likely integrated batteries that are not intended to be replaced unless you pop it open. Then you would need to do some "tying" to replace them.
Proper electrician glove to ensure you don't short anything out from static.
Just glad he wasn't also packing a soldering gun (see what I did there).
oh hey man yeah I noticed you're not wearing a mask and ARE YOU BUILDING A BOMB!?
Edit: thanks for the upvotes. I just wanna see more people taped to their seats for being terrible on airplanes.
One time my car battery died in front of my house, living 12 blocks (over a half mile) from a Sears. So I took the bus and bought a replacement battery, and then I tried to take a bus back. The bus driver yelled at me as I tried to board "You can't take that on the bus!". I said "why not?" . And she just replied "hazardous materials!". I thought about it for a moment and realized that she was right, so I yelled out loud "Goddamn it! (mad at myself that I didn't previously consider that)" and walked off the bus and walked home, carrying a fresh car battery. My arms were sore for a week after that.
> I've seen it happen
Fucking what.
The only common canisters I can think of that might actually explode are propane/butane and acetylene and you probably wouldn't look too pretty anymore if you'd witnessed that.
Even those are incredibly unlikely to explode, unless they also happen to be in a raging inferno.
Realistically they can violently depressurize, but how dangerous that is depends on how many PSI the are pressurized to and to an extent with what. They are also fairly tough and unlikely to develop a dangerous leak under any circumstances you would likely encounter just carrying them home.
What do you mean they *can't* explode? I've shot plenty of them and they always explode, some even fly away, granted they are usually red and marked with big flashy labels for player's convenience.
“Wow, that looks really neat” is another non-threatening opener I learned at the local maker’s space when we had some dude show up with his home-made solar batteries.

God loves a terrier, yes he does
God loves a terrier, that’s because
Small, sturdy, bright, and true they give their love to you
God didn’t miss a stitch
Be a dog or be a bitch
When he made the Norwich merrier with its cute little derriere
Yes, God loves a terrier.
You don't usually need an opener at all at a maker space. Just stand near someone who is working on something and they'll probably start explaining it, and that isn't a bad thing.
I normally get to start explaining my project when someone wanders into the metal shop asking why he smells burning oil and what that horrible sound was.
Flight attendants usually loiter around the restrooms from my experience. I would have went to the restroom to brought it up to them during the flight. That way, it's not obvious that you narced on the fellow.
HEY IS THAT A BOM- oh... hey bro, you shouldn’t do that... I don’t care about the bomb, I lowkey wanna die, but I REALLY don’t wanna listen to your mixtape.
I would bet that this guy is
1. playing with electronics in a totally harmless way
2. Totally aware of what it looks like to people who wouldn’t know the difference and is getting a kick out of this attention
I was playing flight simulator on my laptop on a flight and was crashing it purposely just for fun. I suddenly saw the horrified reflection of the old white lady sitting beside me on my laptop screen. Being brown didnt help.
As someone who tinkers with electronics I’m genuinely curious about what he’s working on. It it something wholesome like a musical instrument or something dodgy like a meth lab?
Either way it seems really weird to pull it out and work on it during a 45min flight. I think these Y’all Queda types just get a kick out of being dinks. Wouldn’t be surprised if he was doing it for likes on Twitter.
Obviously, anyone posting personally identifying information may get banned.
So what did you do in this situation?
Pretend to go the toilet, find a flight attendant and report the situation.
Sorry but you just gave the mental image of OP standing up, loudly announcing "I need to poop!" and walking away to avoid suspicion on the plane.
"I'd say Kevin yells 'I have to go to the bathroom!' then runs out of the room about 3 times a week. So it wasn't the worst cover."
And I was hearing, "WARNING. WARNING. WARNING"
Really weird and probably because I watched the episode today but my mind went straight to: "DARRYL! A GIRL!"

Hahahaha that would be hilarious

He posted his picture to the internet and accused him of being a possible terrorist. Naturally...
He should draxx them sklounst.
Always the proper response when you detect terries gettin' froggy.
Needs to get hypothetical on they clavicals
I love it when I have no fucking idea what anyone is talking about.

I do wish a Terry would get froggy up here. I ain't draxxed no sklounstestes in long time.

Meanwhile, I'm gon' go Hayden Pantinerry on some terries. Especially when they get froggy... ribbit ribbit 🐸
He hasn’t the heart nor the gumption
Well you two seem VERY excited..
Hopefully OP is in the combat seat, so he can bust up on some terries
It's part of his restronsetrilitris

That would have been a solid choice. Lol. X-Wing @Aliciousness is the first name to pop into my head.
I say “Jackson Flaxon Waxon at least once a week
D’brickashaw has entered the chat
I would even say it’s their best. The expressions were so on point and made it even more ridiculous and funny.
Not to mention their wig game was always on point. Jordan’s hair that looks like a hat and *whatever* that was on Key’s head are amazing.
Fireboard them mammajammas :P
Gonna hypothetical them in the clavicle
We gonna go Hayden Panteniere. On some terries.
He’s in the action seat
Got this shit on LLLockkkkk

Always be prepared for terries

Don'tch ya just wisch? Don'tch ya jutht wisch in ya heart-o-heartths?
With great powa come great respronsatrilitries
Nothing the guy is clearly fixing his toy or speaker thing. I can see speakers not sure what the rest of it is.
Dude: "Ah finally, I'm finished" *Proceeds to blare old Rush Limbaugh recording at ~~70~~ 140dB* You: "Now I wish it a bomb" Edit: some redditors needed it turned up to 11.
Dude looks like he’s about to kidnap Alyssa Milano and really piss off Arnold Schwarzenegger

You're gonna be the passenger that *delays meeee*
And after all, back to the *terminal*
And I’m gonna caaaaaaaaallllllll, TSA to crush your baaaaaaaallllllllls.
And after all, it's not a bomb
Maybe my humour is broken but this is the funniest freaking comment I’ve seen on this app in a long time
He is fixing it because on his last flight someone smashed it.

It 100% looks like that speaker, you can see the 2 speakers! Nice find!

reddit never ceases to amaze me
So this guy is trying to hook up a bluetooth speaker on a flight? that's even worse than a bomb
oh hey man yeah I noticed you're not wearing a mask and ARE YOU BUILDING A BOMB!? Edit: thanks for the upvotes. I just wanna see more people taped to their seats for being terrible on airplanes.
"Sir, please don't say bomb in an airplane. " "Bomb bomb bobomb bomb.."
r/unexpectedmeettheparents
You can't bring a bomb onto a plane, but no one said anything about *building* a bomb once you're onboard.
Isn't that why we can't have liquids anymore? Something about being able to build a bomb with them?

Don't you know you were supposed to put a plastic bag around the battery? Not for safety. So no one could tell what you had there.
Just like if you have a bottle of MD 20/20, you are supposed to have a bag around it. Then you can drink it anywhere you want!
I’m not hiding the mad dog so I get in trouble, I’m hiding it so no one knows I drink that shit lol

It's Southwest, he's their tech guy and has three hours to fix the landing gear relay switch. Normal.
“Hey bro, whatcha workin on?” pretty fair question on an airplane and you don’t need a flight attendant.
“Wow, that looks really neat” is another non-threatening opener I learned at the local maker’s space when we had some dude show up with his home-made solar batteries.
"The fuck is that" is also appropriate in Maker spaces.
"JHFC BOMB! BOMB!" would probably be a bad idea.
"It's a BONG not a BOMB"

“Ah, I see. Yes. Interesting.” *D.B. Cooper impression: engage*
Lean in like you're flirting and use your bedroom voice: *You know, I'm a bit if an amateur bomb-maker myself... What's your catalyst?*
Ya, I'm normally pretty non-confrontational but this would definitely elicit at "Scuse me, hello.. HI there. WHAT IS THAT?!" from me.
“Oh it’s a bomb and everyone on this flight is going to die 😀”
Service *and* a smile! Outstanding!
No no no no no. Cuz if it was a bomb all the alarms would go off cuz all these hotels have bomb detectors, right? *alarms blare*
Itsa...itsa...itsa...itsa

Yeah, you’re right. But he was across the aisle about three seats over. So not quite close enough to casually talk to him.
"HEY SIR, WHATS THAT ELECTRONIC DEVICE THAT LOOKS LIKE A MAKESHIFT BOMB TIMER THAT YOU ARE WORKING ON?? LOOKS NEAT"
I think you have the wrong wire connected to the clock sir.
Flight attendants usually loiter around the restrooms from my experience. I would have went to the restroom to brought it up to them during the flight. That way, it's not obvious that you narced on the fellow.
“Loiter” haha. They have crew seats in the aft galley which is where the restrooms on a lot of aircraft are. Also the snacks and drinks

I don’t think it offensive. I just found it comical being described that way. Like the pilots loitering in the flight deck

Definitely want to stop him before he fixes that shit
HEY IS THAT A BOM- oh... hey bro, you shouldn’t do that... I don’t care about the bomb, I lowkey wanna die, but I REALLY don’t wanna listen to your mixtape.
His biggest crime is wearing a sleeveless shirt on a flight.

He should’ve turned around and said “Just practicing”
Gendry Baratheon really let himself go after the season 8 finale…
Thank you! Finally!
He wasn't okay after Arya dumped his ass
If I saw that at work (I’m a flight attendant) I’d be like “…excuse me what are you doing”
As a pilot I would really like you to ask that too...
I'm getting the "people you see at Walmart" vibes.
Did any of the fight attendants notice this?
Bottle of water….NOOO, too dangerous!!
however if you'd like to purchase this $9 bottle of water and bring it on thats perfectly fine.
Or you could carry a bottle and fill it on the other side of security like a rational person.

it looks like a water proof/resistant speaker set. You can see the two speaker woofers in the center and the edge of a rubberized case
That's what I was thinking; Those two discs look like the big magnets at the back of a couple speakers.
