Terrified passengers shocked as plane fills with ‘insane’ fog: ‘Like a horror movie’

Forget snakes on a plane — this flight came with its own haunted-house fog machine. One traveler was left spooked recently when her plane cabin filled with fog so dense it looked like a scene ripped from a slasher flick.

The worker’s employment was terminated after he refused the offer.The case clarified that “the development of artificial intelligence technology is intended to liberate…
