A man was kicked off his flight after he was caught on film ripping off his shirt and threatening to batter the cabin crew during a flight. The unnamed passenger verbally attacked a staff on an early-morning flight from Stansted Airport to Tenerife.

The plane was then quickly diverted to Marrakesh airport, in Morocco, where he was arrested by local cops.

Security staff ran to confront the slurring yob after other passengers complained about his behaviour.

When told to calm down by the hi-vis clad steward, he screamed: “How about you calm down c***? Who’s got a problem with me?
