Allegedly he was taxying that fast so that he could get his departure clearance from a kid in the tower that was busting to use the potty.

The cameraman allegedly used to be in the swedish airforce and held a current and invalid ATPL and was actually strapped to the nose leg wearing nothing more than a pair of speedos and Raybans operating a handheld camera whilst humming the accompnying tune.

The Captain has since been fired for his complaints, heard on the CVR, about management forcing him into this publicity stunt and the obvious dangers therein. Sadly there is soooo much media coverage surounding the first 2 sensational allegations that the media couldnt give a toss about a seasoned professional fired for pointing out a lack of safety culture in an international airline
