Lol. Boy collapses in plane after wearing 12 layers of clothing to avoid excess luggage fee

I don't know how he came up with the idea but I doubt he will try it again after his experience. James McElvar, 19 (pictured above) an upcoming singer with a Scottish group called Rewind, collapsed from heat exhaustion on a plane because he was wearing all his clothes - all 12 layers of them comprising of 6 t-shirts, 4 jumpers, 3 pairs of jeans, 2 pairs of jogging bottoms, a pair of jackets and two hats to avoid paying excess luggage fee. The airline told him he was carrying too many luggages and he would have to pay £50 for excess baggage. To avoid paying the money, he wore his clothes.

He was on his way from London to Glasgow when his body temperature sky-rocketed, causing him to have a fit and pass out at 37,000 feet. He was attended to by an off-duty paramedic, before being rushed to hospital on arrival at the airport.

He is doing well now...and today he recreated how he looked on the day he collapsed. (above)

    I know a lady from Nigeria that wear excess clothes. She buys wrappers from Dubai to sell in Nigeria. She say the immigration in Dubai will say "Nigerians, you come into Dubai slim and leave very fat". She said they do these to avoid paying for the heavy laces. Sometimes they can barely walk.

    A clear case of penny wise, pound foolish. But on a second thought, if he had succeeded, he'd have saved £50.

    lol, only those that have not travel between countries frequently that would not have come across this, i remember doing this in December, while returning from UK, after paying excessive high air fare, due to peak period, i had no choice but to put on 7 of my cloths when the issue of over luggage came up, but as a sharp guy that understand the rules. immediately i enter the plane, i removed them and put them back into my hang bag
