Wing Chun in Mid Air!
Let this be a warning to you.. Especially Fat Drunk Guys ..
Next time you're flying in or out of Hong Kong, you may want to think twice about ordering that third G&T. Hong Kong Airlines has begun training its cabin crew in the ancient Chinese martial art of wing chun – a branch of kung fu – as a means of restraining unruly passengers.
According to the airline, wing chun is ideal for in-flight combat, because it employs short, swift movements and can be practised in a confined space. Two weeks ago, a female crew member apparently put her wing chun training to the test, successfully subduing a difficult male passenger on a flight from Beijing.
"Normally, female cabin crew can't handle a fat guy, especially if he's drunk," Eva Chan, a spokeswoman for the airline, explained with admirable candour, "but because of the training, she can handle it quite easily."
A flight attendant could use the chi sau ("sticky hands") technique to prevent a passenger from hitting her. "
