ANCHORAGE, ALASKA — Passengers on an Alaskan Airlines flight were more than a little shell shocked after a man started running through the plane in his birthday suit.<br /><br />The Mercury News reports that Nick Steffl first noticed the dude while he was watching James Franco's The Disaster Artist while still fully clothed.<br /><br />He said he suspects the movie might have played a role in the nudity that ensued, since one scene shows Franco in all his naked glory.<br /><br />Retired Alaska senator Johnny Ellis was also on the flight. Both he and Steffl witnessed the man bolting to the cockpit whooping and hollering, before turning back toward the rear.<br /><br />Steffl stood up to confront the man, asking him what he was doing and then slapping him across the face when he gave a wisecrack response.<br /><br />Seconds later, a second passenger who might've been the fella's dad restrained and then took him to the crew area.<br /><br />Despite being out of sight, the naked man shouted crazy things until the plane landed in Anchorage 45 minutes later.<br /><br />Police waiting at the gate took him into custody and later brought him to a hospital.
