00:00A Utah man has been arrested and charged after reportedly bringing a straight-edge razor
00:12on board a JetBlue flight and holding it to a woman's throat mid-flight.
00:19Oh, wow. That's not allowed.
00:22That is not at all.
00:2341-year-old Merrill Daryl Thackrell.
00:26That's your problem right there. His name's Merrill Daryl.
00:28Merrill Daryl.
00:30Merrill Daryl.
00:35Daryl Merrill maybe.
00:38Merrill Daryl Thackrell.
00:40Oh, no.
00:40What are you up to?
00:41I feel like he comes from a long line of rhyming names.
00:46Family members.
00:47During the flight, Merrill Daryl allegedly placed his hands on the woman's screen and said,
00:52Hey, pause your movie.
00:54She took off her headphones and said, What?
01:00That's when Merrill Daryl pulled out a knife and held it inches from her throat.
01:05Yeah.
01:06Easy, Merrill Daryl.
01:07The woman's husband ran away.
01:10No.
01:11Yes.
01:11That's what you do.
01:12He said later he was trying to get help from the front of the plane.
01:15I'll be back.
01:16You don't run away.
01:18The woman had to lunge toward the aisle to escape Merrill Daryl, who stopped her by grabbing
01:25her shoulder.
01:28This is, I guess, some footage of them taking Merrill Daryl off the flight there.
01:31What upset Merrill Daryl?
01:33They don't really know.
01:34Life.
01:35Just life.
01:37Maybe the movie she was watching.
01:39Possibly.
01:39Oh, he was offended?
01:41Maybe?
01:41Oh, maybe.
01:45Do we really?
01:46I know that there's places that use them, but outside of the old west.
01:52A straight edge.
01:52What are we doing with straight edge razors?
01:55I guess you're allowed to take them, right?
01:57You're allowed to have them on flights, aren't you?
01:59Because I can take my razor blade.
02:00I don't think so.
02:01Yeah, I pack my razor every time.
02:03You can't take a straight edge, but a regular razor I can take.
02:05Like, a regular razor makes sense.
02:07But, like, a straight edge, unless you're literally a cowboy in the 1800s.
02:12You can't bring a box cutter on there, and it's got a small blade, so.
02:16You can have a razor blade?
02:19I don't know.
02:21Just a regular, but not a, I don't know.
02:24Yeah.
02:25Yeah.
02:25Authorities didn't say how Merrill Daryl was detained, but the weapon was secured.
02:29Lander identified as a wood-handled straight edge razor with a one to two inch blade.
02:34And if your business is selling these kind of razors, and you see a guy named Merrill
02:39Daryl wants one, you might want to be like, we're all out.
02:44Merrill Daryl.
02:45Merrill Daryl.
02:45You're going to have to shave the old, the regular way, bud.
02:48Your name's Merrill Daryl.
02:50I'll just make my dad, Rod Todd, come down here and buy.
02:53I can't imagine minding your business, though, on a plane, and that happens.
03:01No.
03:02And you're watching a movie.
03:03It's crazy.
03:03You don't, you know, Dave's trying to watch, you know, some kind of confessed Merrill Daryl.
03:08Yeah.
03:08Which there was a, like, little bit of a nude scene in.
03:11Oh.
03:12It's crazier if they were to do it today.
03:14Yeah.
03:15You can turn Fletch off right now.
03:17You understand me?
03:19How dare you let this Jon Hamm come and sully the name of Fletch.
03:22I will bring you out on this plane.
03:25You do not turn the new Fletch off right now.
03:29I don't want it spoiled for me.
03:30There was enough Fletch movies, and I ain't gonna watch this while we're flying.
03:35Sir, what, it seems to be the, what's your name, anyway?
03:38Merrill Daryl.
03:39Merrill, Merrill Daryl, what's your issue?
03:40And you never forget it, you understand?
03:42Merrill Daryl.
03:42I won't.
03:44That's incredible.
03:45Turn Fletch off, I swear to God.
03:47I didn't have a problem when you was watching Bullet Train.
03:49But as soon as you put on that new Fletch, I just couldn't take it.
03:54Damn you.
03:54I mean, just avert your eyes.
03:56I can't.
03:57You know I can't not watch Fletch.
04:00It's impossible.
04:03Too bad, dude.
04:04Anyway, back to my head.
04:05Watching the silent new Fletch.
04:09Razorblade, now.
04:10Razorblade, now.
04:11Yep.
04:13Merrill, Daryl, you bastard.
04:15Yeah, I mean, it's.
04:17Who knows what offended him.
04:18It could have been what he was watching, or what that woman was watching.
04:22I guess it's the voices and everything.
04:25It makes it so much funnier than what it would have been Fletch.
04:27I know.
04:28I know.
04:30No.
04:30I hope it was.
04:32They don't say it, but I.
04:33It's the new Fletch!
04:34I ain't gonna stand for that!
04:36For me, it is Fletch.
04:38It was the new Fletch.
04:39It could have been.
04:40Definitely could have been.
04:41It was just the other day.
04:42This woman should have never watched that.
04:43Well you in a recent Zirish.
04:45Alright.
04:45A brief moment.
04:45Fine.
04:45Thanks.
04:47What's up for the linha?
04:47There was many of the toys.
04:49There was a few one.
04:49There was a beck.
04:49I usually tried to read so many of those of the Zareish.
04:53But I would like to read a song there.
04:54What's out of there.
04:56With you?
04:56It could have been a while.
04:59How do you remember me.
