Police in Las Vegas have arrested a man who was clinging to the wing of an Alaska Airlines 737 jet on the tarmac Saturday afternoon. A cell phone video, posted by Fox News shows a passenger on the wing and holding onto the winglet. He apparently opened the emergency wing exit on the Alaska Airlines jet and walked out onto the wing. The aircraft was still at the gate. A group of police walked out on the wing, but before they reached him, he lost his grip and fell to the tarmac. READ: Qatar Airways soars to 100 destinations.
