But people sitting around the passenger were baffled how they got the knife through customs at an airport in Singapore.
The caption reads: “How [did] he manage(d) to get that thing through customs clearance?”
One viewer commented: “From which airport did you embark this flight.
“Their security at airport are not focussing on their job while his bag goes through into x ray machine.”
Another added: “And security has the audacity to confiscate my water bottle.”
A third wrote: “OMG it’s so dangerous.”
Knives and sharp blades are banned from being carried in hand luggage.
It comes after a butcher said he took a four-inch knife on a plane to Spain after packing the blade in his case by mistake – but had his shampoo confiscated.
Latimer Higham, from Derby, claims he managed to sneak the lethal penknife on to a flight from East Midlands Airport to Lanzarote.
He said customs checked his case after it was X-ray scanned, but security failed to spot the knife back in 2019
But when the scanner beeped they removed shampoo he had packed by accident, he said.
Latimer said: “I unpacked my case when I got to Lanzarote and thought oh my god, how on earth has that got in there.
“It is disgusting that I managed to get on a plane with a knife.
“Something like this could have serious consequences if someone with the wrong intentions did it.”
He added: “A knife like this could be used as a serious weapon.”
