Man puts on 8kg of clothing to avoid paying excess baggage charges
Some of us would do anything to save money, and this dad is a superhero!
All of us know the pain of going to check-in and having to pay those exorbitant extra charges for heavy bags.
When John Irvine from Scotland was told that his bag was eight kilograms too heavy and that he would have to pay a fee, he devised a plan to save himself some money. He simply put the extra layers of clothing on himself, all 8 kilos!

John's family were travelling back from Nice in France to Edinburgh airport and Josh, John's son, filmed his father piling on the layers of shirts and jackets, and shared it on social media. Seventeen-year-old Josh told Metro.co.uk: "We were coming home back to Bearsden, Glasgow from France on Saturday night and we never thought we’d be over the weight limit by eight kilos."
He struggled to get through security but his stunt paid off in the end.
