The signage on airplanes is pretty straightforward, but it apparently confused a passenger so much that he mistook a rear exit door for a bathroom door, and sent the entire plane into a panic.
The man, a passenger on a GoAir flight from New Delhi to Patna last Saturday, had never flown before, perhaps explaining his confusion. As he tugged at the exit door, other passengers took note of his bizarre behavior and alerted airline staff. According to the New Indian Express, he insisted that he needed to use the bathroom urgently, and confirmed afterward that the mix-up had occured because it was his first time flying.
