Popular YouTube star, Adam Saleh, who has 1.6 million followers on the video site, was escorted off a Delta airline flight from London to New York after 20 other passengers complained about him.

Daily Sun UK reported that Delta Airlines staff escorted Saleh and a friend off the flight yesterday and he caught the whole incident on camera, saying that a number of people complained about him because he was speaking to his mother in Arabic.


After being removed from the flight, Saleh was grounded in the airport and interviewed by police. He was not charged with any crime and Delta Airlines rebooked him on another flight to New York.

In the video, the online joker yelled: “I cannot believe my eyes. I spoke a word and you said you feel uncomfortable. Why are you guys doing that? Just because I spoke a different language.”

He claimed the complaints came from "six white people against bearded men".

He added: "We spoke a different language on the plane and now we're getting kicked out. This is 2016. "Delta Airlines are kicking us out because we spoke a different language. You guys are racist."

In a statement, Delta Airlines said: "Two customers were removed from this flight and later rebooked after a disturbance in the cabin resulted in more than 20 customers expressing their discomfort. "We're conducting a full review to understand what transpired. We are taking allegations of discrimination very seriously; our culture requires treating others with respect."
