@Copwatchtv obtained body camera footage of an incident where a man decided to go vape in the airplane’s lavatory. Doing so caused the smoke detector to go off and forced the pilots to land the plane in Santa Fe, New Mexico.
Sheriff and city police responded to the Santa Fe Regional Airport to board the plane and remove the man. Police interviewed the man and passed the case to the FAA and NTSB. It is unclear what fines he faced.

Poor guy …… I'm thinking he won't be doing "that" again anytime soon😂😂
Smoking was allowed in the 70's and 80's, was no big deal. Now you can't fart on a plane.
The amount of times i broke a federal law and didnt even fully realize how much danger i was in😂😅 not doing that shit again
Have people never heard of smoke buddies ðŸ˜
Thanks JD
I'm sure whoever's radio battery is dying, they didn't intend for it to happen, but damn you.
I didn't know vaping had smoke to it..I thought it was a moist mist ??
This is crazy how much tax dollars are being wasted over water vapor come on !! Worry about deporting illegals from our country
Now he will know what it costs to land a plane in an emergency
He looks like he wants to kill himself
Thanks, J.D.
Imagine being so damn addicted that you'd risk committing a federal crime just for a stupid vape. Just do it when you hop off, jesus.
Arrested? Yet 40 years ago you could smoke on a plane
Thanks JD
When you vape you're breathing in toxic metals into your lungs like lead and nickle. Worse than tobacco. Vaping should be outlawed. It's always profit over people with these companies.
Thanks JD
bro i used to fly in literal hot boxed planes when i was a child people are too fuckin sensitive these days i swear
Dam. What a huge inconvenience for all the passengers, except him! For him … Just a huge consequence to suck on a vape pen. After you settle the LEGAL side of things…. Now, you have to PAY for another flight to get to whatever destination he was heading for. Not to mention, he may have to book a room if an aleeady overpriced plane ticket isnt available tgat same day. All of fhis for a smoke. I didnt even know that a vape could set off a smoke alarm! Learn something new every day!!! Then again … His gurlfriend is there in her car. So maybe the maker of this video made a mistake when it says emergency landing. Idk. 😂😂😂😂😂
Yet, the airlines are allowed to fly unvaccinated, undocumented illegals.
Of course a guy with a man bun feels the need to smoke on the plane.
THAT'S RIDICULOUS ..
This is why I vape in my seat. Just hold the vapor in and don't exhale anything visible. Easy peasy.
Good thing the cops are wasting their time on someone vaping in a plane bathroom! Great work!
I am so happу, I am sick of these people vaping in buses, anywhere they want. They need to pay.
oh no. not a dangerous vape. what ever shall we do to recover from this travesty! ffs
Is that land the one they call the land of Freedom? freedom were ? or for who?
That is so stupid , arrest a man , just because he needed Vaping
WOW , looking this video i only can say is ;
what a disgusting , corrupt policial State , shame on you USA
And " they" assume that they are a exemple to the world , the land of jails
What a genious!
This would have never happened on a Hollister flight
That officer was really cool.. "you all right" definitely felt compassion for him.
This is just ridiculous… the flight attendants knew he vaped.. they should have just reprimanded him.. this whole shit show they do over vaping like its dangerous. People smoked without incident on planes for decades until the early 90's
weird.. ive vaped in plane bathrooms know tons of people who do and never had an alarm go off… i guess i wont again. Thats crazy to know this could have been me. I always just assumed those things only pick up heat and smoke.. especially e cigs which dont let out much vapor at all or smell, especially if you hold it in for a few seconds.
Let's not forget there was co cane, found in the Whitehouse
Ha so if you dont own anything oh well i guess u cant do shit. Youre simply exsist to be a slave. Everythings owned already.
He shouldve just ghosted it
These cops are cool as hell tho
I’ve vaped on planes all the time. Learn how to zero your hits
Dang!? I wonder how long they've been doing that!? I know for a fact back in 1998 the guy I was dating, absolutely lit a cigarette and managed to take a few puffs in the bathroom on several flights I was on and I was TERRIFIED he was going to get caught!
PS. How do vapes trigger a smoke alarms? Is it new technology or has the old tech always reacted to these new vapes?
Or did he burn a dab?
I may or may not have done this before I’m not admitting to anything but after watching this video I certainly won’t ever bring a smoking device with me on any plane again.
That’s if I did smoke which I don’t
This could happen to me. I vape naturally, by habit. Damn, that’s scary
The depths of people's stupidity is mind boggling
Lol I had a dream one time i was flying with a dab pen and got away with a couple of drags, it was dark, no one around for a fee minutes, and people around me sleeping. Got away with it 😅
thats how you handle the situation. admit fault and take it like a man
