Usually, after a night out at a restaurant, people go to their cars, call a cab, or walk home. But one man in Alaska took a route that he will never forget. Instead of driving away, he flew away in a plane, and the whole thing was caught on camera.How did the unusual exit unfold?The viral video starts with a witness filming from the side of a road. You can see a restaurant in the distance, and in its parking lot, there is a small black plane. The plane slowly moves across the dusty ground before carefully making its way onto the highway, as per a report by NerdStash.The plane picks up speed as soon as the road is clear. Its front propeller spins faster and faster until it finally takes off. In a matter of seconds, it flies high into the sky, right over the cameraman’s car. The loud engine noise makes the moment even more strange: leaving the restaurant was like no other.A customer at a restaurant in Alaska leaves in a planepic.twitter.com/rBAmYUmL33— Massimo (@Rainmaker1973) September 17, 2025 Live EventsWhat did people say online?After the video started going around, people on social media had a lot to say about it. One Reddit user said, “I know very little about planes, but I’m impressed at how quickly it got off the ground.” Another user explained what the plane could do: “These planes are equipped for Short Takeoff and Landing (STOL) because they often need to use short runways or surfaces that aren’t true runways at all,” as per a report by NerdStash.ALSO READ: D4vd Tesla body identified as a teenage girl – was it a murder?
