Nothing could be more bizarre. Or embarrassing. A passenger on a British Airways flight headed to Dubai pooped so bad that the flight had to return. The smell emanating from the loo soon became unbearable for the passengers and even the poor crew (pity their job right now) couldn’t salvage the situation.

The plane had departed from Heathrow Airport in London and by the time it reached Brussels in Belgium, the smell had become so intolerable that the passengers and the crew could barely breathe.

An Indian-origin British politician Abhishek Sachdeva was on the plane with his wife and daughter when this happened and tweeted about the incident.

Insane! Our BA flight to Dubai returned back to Heathrow because of a smelly poo in the toilet! 15hrs until next flight... #britishairways — Abhishek Sachdev (@CllrAbhiSach) March 12, 2015

Although the airline offered food and hotel accommodation to the passengers, much discomfort was caused because there was a 15-hour delay to the next flight. It’s been almost a year since this incident happened but luckily for the pooper, his identity was not revealed.
