Barstool star stopped passenger from opening plane’s emergency door mid-flight
Barstool Sports star @DonnieDoesWorld was about to doze off on a flight out of Albuquerque after a combination of Panda Express and tequila when there was a commotion several rows back.
Donnie, who’s real name is Zach Etkind, makes surreal and comical travel videos for Barstool from all corners of the planet, explained on the “Macrodosing” podcast this week that he was part of a group of passengers who subdued a man that was trying to wrest open the emergency hatch mid-flight.
“So this is about 20 minutes into the flight. I’d just crushed some Panda Express and a tequila soda. I was watching a movie about to dose off, when I heard people yelling in the back,” he recalled, specifying that the movie was “The Marvels”.

I turn around and there’s one dude trying to open the plane door, and the other guy sitting next to him trying to rip him off the door.
“I hopped right out. I got right over there. I was probably the third person on the scene trying to get him off the door.”

There was some confusion about what to do once they got the man away from the door.
