Watch: Man climbs airplane wing right before takeoff

On Saturday Las Vegas Police arrested a man who climbed onto the wing of an airplane right before takeoff. According to reports, the man - identified as Alejandro Carlson - got onto the tarmac at McCarran International Airport and managed to climb the wing of an Alaska Airlines plane. Videos shot by passengers inside the airplane surfaced online. The flight to Oregon was grounded as a result of the 41-year-old's stunt, which lasted 45 minutes as he walked along the plane's wing and even took off his shoes and socks before eventually losing his balance and falling to the tarmac.
