Frozen Plane Passengers Help Push An Aircraft In Russia [+VIDEO] At -52C

Frozen Plane Passengers - It's not every day that a plane gets pushed into the runway by its passengers. The situation occurred, though, in Siberia.

The temperature in the Krasnoyarsk region hit as low as -52C and although people are used to these low temperatures, machines can't cope many times. This is what happened to the UTair plane, RT noted.

The event took place on Wednesday. The plane going out from the Igarka airport was "frozen." It was stuck on the tarmac. The aircraft had 74 passengers and apparently, when this happened, they found an opportunity to help out.

"In order to deliver the plane to the taxiway, the passengers were invited to leave the plane and move to a bus parked nearby."

"After that, some of them arbitrarily left the bus and approached the plane trying to assist with the use of physical force," said a spokeswoman for the West Siberia Transportation Prosecutor and Time reported.

Even though the action of the passengers was an admirable one, conflicts began later. The event was filmed by a passenger and uploaded to YouTube, where it went viral.

Once this happened, Russian investigators took over the case to analyze it. Apparently, the frozen plane's passengers had no right to push the aircraft and it wasn't a "smart" move, according to ABC News.

Still, people online praised the entire situation and even made joking comments on it.

Now, one of the sayings was modified and goes, "Planted a tree, built a house, pushed a plane," referring to the actions that are seemingly vital to any Russian man.

The frozen plane was moved to the taxiway successfully after the "push" provided by the passengers and left to Krasnoyarsk, where it landed safely and securely.

The only small problem is that the aircraft arrived with a bit of delay. Other than that, everything turned out fine.
