MARK WAHLBERG WOULD HAVE LANDED A HIJACKED PLANE (2012)
Mark Wahlberg was scheduled to be on American Airlines Flight 11, which crashed into the North Tower of the World Trade Center before, canceling a few days before September 11, presumably to log more hours staring at his own reflection. But had he been on that flight, Wahlberg would have left his comfy first-class seat, kicked ass, and landed the plane. Well, according to Wahlberg: “If I was on that plane with my kids, it wouldn’t have went down like it did. There would have been a lot of blood in that first-class cabin and then me saying, ‘OK, we’re going to land somewhere safely, don’t worry.’”
Everyone outside of South Boston called bullshit, and Wahlberg later apologized for acting like such a … him.
