Man Sprays Seatmate With Perfume... You Read That Right

Federal authorities had some questions for two men involved in an altercation onboard an American Airlines flight Wednesday.

Authorities say one of the men, a 56-year-old Japanese national, acted suspiciously even before flight 918 left Lima, Peru, bound for Miami. The man laid down in the aisle at one point, before asking for a glass of water... which he then proceeded to pour over his head, before settling back into his seat next to a jockey in his 20s.

The Miami Herald reports the older man wasn't done, though... as about two hours into the flight, he then sprayed perfume on the man seated next to him, according to airline spokeswoman Judy Orihuela. He evidently felt his seatmate's hygiene was of some concern.

When the younger man took out his iPod -- apparently in an attempt to ignore his fellow passenger -- the older man then elbowed the younger man.

"(The older man) thought it (the iPod) was not going to be good for the plane ... with all the rules on electronics," Orihuela said.

The flight crew eventually separated the two men, who were not identified. Both were questioned when the plane landed early Wednesday morning... but were not arrested.

Is it just us... or does this sound like something you'd see on "Airline?"
