Two guys overnight at the American Airlines concourse at Dallas/Ft. Worth and make a video

Two guys found themselves stranded overnight at Dallas/Ft. Worth Airport and decided to make a video commemorating the evening, which they uploaded here a few days ago.

In the video they’re pictured playing around in wheelchairs, beat boxing on the mic at gates, and even pouring themselves a beer at one of the restaurants. This has caused a huge uproar regarding “security,” given that they went about their activities all night without anyone stopping them.

First of all I have to say that I thought the video was incredibly well done given that it seemed to be a spur of the moment video (content aside). For the most part I think it’s hilarious, though I’m not sure how smart it is to post a video of you “stealing” a beer from a restaurant by gaining entry into their kitchen without permission.

The only thing that potentially concerns me about “security” in this instance is whether or not they may have had access to sharp knives in the kitchen of the restaurant. Other than that, they were already screened for security, so I don’t see any safety concern. Still, you’d think that airport security would tell them to knock it off.

What are your thoughts? Hilarious? Pathetic? A safety concern? No big deal?

Spinning on his back on the escalator hand rails was unsafe, dangerous and stupid. Running up the down escaltor was unsafe and stupid.

Spinning on his back on the up/down escalator hand rails was awesome. Thanks for the link, chasgoose. Definitely not an amateur video, but does seem spur of the moment.

I doubt it's staged. I mean why would DFW grant permission to these two to pull a stunt that makes them look bad (not to mention why would they then go make statements about this was unacceptable). You would be surprised how little equipment you need to make high quality video these days, especially if you are a professional, which these people seemed to be. Finally, if you actually look at the video, they film only a few very short little segments. I bet most of their night was spent setting up the shots and less of it was goofing around. The only thing that seems off is the stealing of the beer, and I don't quite know how they pulled that off. Maybe they got lucky...
