While on our way home from photographing Formula Drift Palm Beach, Larry Chen and I found ourselves stranded over night in Dallas Fort Worth (DFW) as our flights home were canceled. The following is a brief summary of the events that took place that night.

  • Cam Cornelius plus 8 months ago
    I was offended when I saw the news story that called this a "prank video." This is a well shot piece of art! Thanks for bringing some fun back to the airport. I guess they will get you hotel vouchers the next time you are stranded...lol.

  • Joe Ardent 6 months ago
    It was that moment that I began weeping with bitter envy at how well this was edited.

    There is nothing about this that is not pure brilliance.

  • AQO 8 months ago
    love it, and people from texas have no sense of humor anyway so don't worry about them.

    apparently it's okay to be miserable stranded in an airport, but if you try to enjoy yourselves... its a problem. tsk tsk

    keep up the good work guys! you have my support!
  • Amanda Johnson 8 months ago
    what do you mean people from texas have no sense of humor?? i live in texas, have been to that airport TONS of times and this video made me laugh so hard i almost pissed myself!
  • AQO 8 months ago
    read the local news articles about people considering pressing charges and you'll see what i mean.

    HA.... dfw.cbslocal.com/2011/06/15/video-of-hijinks-at-dfw-not-laughing-matter-for-airport-board-member/
    .... this is so overdramatized and I'm sure you've seen it... congrats! haha
  • James Powell 8 months ago
    thanks for the link chels. the posters to the cbs site really are morons.
  • Chelsea Lupkin 8 months ago
    No problem! The funny thing is that they're really only fueling to the awesomeness of this video. haha
  • trekker 8 months ago
    Yep, I live just a few miles from dfw... the above news cast cbslocal is the only way I found out about it... fun stuff.. hope they dont get into trouble.

  • Victor Zell 8 months ago
    That's too awesome, and probably the last time anyone will ever have that much fun in a US aeroport.
  •  
  • Unite4PeaceOnEarth 8 months ago
    This video certainly went viral since it was on the CBS website and then linked by DrudgeReport.com
  •  
  • Steve Lang 8 months ago
    Awesome video! Not sure why it would cause such an uproar in the press, the only bit that would make the airport security look bad is maybe stealing the beer. The rest is not particularly hazardous/criminal/risking security in any way, just funny. Unless their last name is Muhammad I guess! (jk of course)
  •  
  • Parker Heyl 8 months ago
    This needed music. I know there's some perfect song out there to play in the background that would send this viral
  • felt soul media plus 8 months ago
    I disagree. It'll go viral just fine without dropping in some unlicensed music.
  • Gregory Storm plus 8 months ago
    Yeah, this just got played on KCAL 9 in Los Angeles. Viralosity achieved.
  • Parker Heyl 8 months ago
    Good to hear, that's awesome! If it were my video, I would have found some great, legal, music to accompany. It's not make or break, just a suggestion.

  • Johnal Leifsson 8 months ago

    Totally staged. I'm pretty sure that's not even Joe Ayala, but instead Ross Fairfield.

  • roberto placido 8 months ago
    Awesome video and quality...what kind of camera was used to film that?!
  • My bets are that it was filmed with a Canon T2i.
  • Ditto to the nicely done! High quality and nice angles and bokeh! Let us know when you share what you used.

  • Kaliman Oxcuro 8 months ago
    loved it! thanx for the laff guys. i hope any charges brought against you get dropped. wouldn't want to hear about you guys getting sent to Gitmo over this.
  •  
  • Fred Griffin 8 months ago
    Excellent! This is just too funny. Very creative, Joe. I have shown this video to people - they are asking what camera you used. I point them to this Vimeo Page and suggest that they contact you. Best wishes to you Joe (and to Larry)!

  • Daniel Dragon Films plus 8 months ago
    More proof that good films aren't about what camera you have, but how you use your imagination to tell a story.
