A passenger on budget airline Thai Smile Airways was caught on video forcing the plane to return to the airport gate minutes from takeoff because he had forgotten a bag at the terminal.

In the footage, the passenger is seen arguing with a flight attendant in the aisle. The Bangkok-bound Airbus A320 was taxiing for takeoff from Chiang Mai International Airport.

Thai Smile Airways did not immediately respond to USA TODAY’s request for comment.

According to the New Zealand-based publication Stuff, the flight crew told the man they could remove him from the plane now or he could wait until they landed at Bangkok. “Do you want to go? Or do you want to wait until Bangkok?” a flight attendant said in the video.
