Fortunately, the young man was stopped by a brave passenger, this Jasper Schuring, 32 year-old Dutch.

Immediately after the news, security measures were tightened in the Netherlands, where all passengers traveling in the U.S. from Amsterdam, will be subjected to corporal scans (using equipment that will cost a total of 10 million Euros needed to flush out small quantities of explosives of the Nigerian, or 80 grams of PETN ), and France. In Paris, in fact, all luggage will be loaded into the hold and the passenger must show the objects that carry a clear plastic bag in hand. Singapore Airlines is known that the passengers, an hour before arrival in the U.S., can not move from their seats and may not have even a blanket over himself.
