'That is NOT OK': Social media is left in uproar over image of plus-size plane passenger being WEIGHED on a baggage scale in front of 'the whole airport' after staff accused her of lying when she 'claimed she was 130lbs'
2023-05-20
[Daily Mail, where America gets its news] Based on that photo, if she is taller than 5’4� she weighs over 200 lb. May I suggest reading Tom Godwin’s classic “The Cold Equations“.
  • The woman, named Lillian, said everyone had to share their weight with crew

  • When they suspected one person was lying, they made her stand on a scale

  • Lillian said it was 'safety reasons' since weight balance is vital on smaller planes
