World’s Craziest Selfie

So I don't take a lot of selfies, but if I did, it would be hard to top this one!

This MIGHT just be the craziest selfie anyone's ever taken, and that's not an exaggeration. A man named Seif Eldin Mustafa hijacked an EgyptAir flight from Alexandria to Cairo yesterday morning because he wanted to see his ex-wife in Cyprus. And he had a BOMB strapped around his waist.

Ben Innes, a 26-year-old from Leeds, England was a passenger on the flight.  And when the flight landed in Cyprus and swarms of cops surrounded it, Ben asked Seif if they could take a picture together. Ben says, quote, "I thought, why not?  I figured if his bomb was real, I had nothing to lose anyway, so I took a chance to get a closer look at it."

Seif was down for a photo, so Ben posed next to him with a grin on his face while a flight attendant took the picture.

You get a perfect look at the bomb in the photo, which turned out to be a fake, by the way. Seif surrendered after a few hours and he was arrested.  An Egyptian official said, quote, "He's not a terrorist, he's an idiot."
