AirAsia flight is diverted after passengers spot a snake on their plane

Transcript¹

You can't help but think of the 2006 film Snakes on a Plane starring Samuel L. Jackson when you learn about this story. A flight in Malaysia was grounded recently when a snake was found on-board.

LEILA FADEL, HOST:

Good morning. I'm Leila Fadel. The 2006 film "Snakes On A Plane" starring Samuel L. Jackson is a cult² classic, in part for its absurd plot. Snakes infesting³ a plane mid-flight? It could never actually happen - or could it? Recently, a flight in Malaysia was grounded when a snake was found on board. Thankfully, nobody was hurt. So far, reports haven't identified exactly what type of snake was found on the flight. But if I had to guess, I'd say it was a Boeing constrictor. It's MORNING EDITION.

当你了解这个故事时，你不禁会想起2006年由塞缪尔·杰克逊主演的电影《飞机上的蛇》。马来西亚的一架航班最近因飞机上发现一条蛇而停飞。

莱拉·法德尔，主持人：

早上好我是莱拉·法德尔。2006年由塞缪尔·杰克逊主演的电影《飞机上的蛇》是一部狂热的经典之作，部分原因是其荒诞的情节。飞机飞行途中有蛇出没？它不可能真的发生——或者可能吗？最近，马来西亚的一架航班因飞机上发现一条蛇而停飞。谢天谢地，没有人受伤。到目前为止，报道还没有确定在飞机上发现了哪种蛇。但如果我不得不猜测的话，我会说这是一架波音巨蟒。这是早上版。
