John Irvine "about 13 t-shirts on the line".

When an airline employee told Scottish John Irvine that his suitcase contained eight kilograms of overweight, he said: "Hen, watch this," opened it and started to put on about fifteen heads.

Irvine was preparing to return to Edinburgh after a family vacation in Nice, France, when an EasyJet employee announced that he would not be allowed to check in without paying fees. Metro.co.uk reported.

His solution: open the suitcase and put eight kilos of clothes.

His son Josh, who recorded that his father was putting on shirts and sweaters and shared the images on social media (warning: explicit language), said that his father "transpired" in his multiple layers.

"The suitcase is too heavy for women to just put on all their clothes," said the 17-year-old in the video.

"I had ribs hurting," says Josh Metro.co.uk.

"The staff was in the mesh but security was a tough fight because they thought he was trying to smuggle something under all his clothes."

Josh said his father was initially "mortified" when he discovered that the video had been widely shared online, but "ended up laughing after watching it several times".
