1) This DEFINITELY wasn't his first time doing this

2) Had the plane not been fully booked, he would have 100% gotten away with it

He's con artist, dude smiles and shakes hands with passengers who he stolen their indenties from.

[tom-xfxs]

He looks so casual. He's done it before for sure.

"Just made a mistake and wants to go home". The cry of every criminal when caught.

[severtone]

Clearly, not everyone who shakes your hand with a smile has good intentions.

From the video, the person on his right noticed him taking a picture yet did nothing.

That wasn’t a “mistake”. That was a CHOICE.

This why im always cautious of random people coming up to me trying to start conversation. Especially if they are asking me questions about where im from, where im going... Why is a stranger asking me this?

This is not a mental health issue. Do not put everything on that! He did something criminal. No need to assess his mental state. He knew what he was doing. This is not someone going through a mental breakdown or crisis. This is someone who took time to think about a criminal plan to steal someone’s ticket and therefore money.

That’s no mistake, it was deliberate and calculating. Not a mental health issue.

He’s done this more than once. Investigators should track down all his flights to see how many times before he’s done it. Although logistically impossible due to camera recordings and how long they are kept, I’m sure he’s done it before.

He didn't make a mistake, he made a decision to steal someone else's pass to get a free ride.

He steals his ticket then shakes his hand. 😂😂😂😂😂😂

[SonOroSound]

"Florizard" sounds like a Pokemon name

[davidcarlin]

Mental health evaluation? He is a criminal. He knew exactly what he was doing. He stole someone’s ticket information.

[maryd]

He should be on a NO FLY LIST permanently

This is the kind of sneaky snake you DO NOT want to have as a friend.

[Mumblix]

See him smiling and being everybody's friend? Gaining their confidence. That's where the "con" in conman comes from.

This is also a moral lesson to all. Don't take out your boarding pass for everyone to see, until you're at the boarding gate.

How is this possible? Before you go through TSA, you have to show your ticket with you ID and they verify it.
