The Terrorists Won't Win
The term hero gets thrown around a lot - but without any hyperbole or humor intended, I think it's safe to say that Anton Gerasimov is the greatest hero of this century or any other century.
Because of the terrorist plot broken up in the U.K. today, airline passengers in the United States were not allowed to bring liquids on board as carry-on items. Most of these passengers, having already checked their baggage, had no choice and threw the liquids out. But not Anton Gerasimov.
Instead of tossing the champagne away, dude SHOTGUNNED the bottle before getting on his flight. Talk about life giving you lemons and turning it into lemonade... except in this case it was hard lemonade. The man wouldn't let the terrorists push him around. He showed them by DOWNING THE ENTIRE BOTTLE OF CHAMPAGNE. So next time you take a drink, raise your glass to the guy who would rather fly completely blitzed... than fly in fear!
And let this be a lesson to all those who want to blow up airplanes. The people of the free world will down as much alcohol as necessary to prevent you from winning.
In the meantime, if I don't see this picture on the cover of Life or Time or one of those magazines I don't care to read and only glance at while bagging my own groceries at Food4Less, I'm going to be very unhappy.
