I found it on another forum (you might need some translation)


If the glasgow airport incident had happened in a US airport, compared to Glasgow- eyewitness accounts


America:"Oh my God! There was a man on fire, he was running about, i
just ran for my life. I thought i was gonna die, he got so close to
me"

Glasgow "Bawbag wis running aboot on fire, so a ran up n gave him a
good boot, then decked him"


America:" I just wanna get home, away from here. I just wanna get
home, I thought i was gonna die"

Glasgow:" here shug, am no leaving here till am oan a f*ckin' plane!"


America:" there was pandemonium, people were running in all
directions, we didn't know what was happening thought i was gonna die"

Glasgow:"F*ck this fir a kerry oan, moan we ll get a pint in"


America :" We thought he was gonna blow us all up he had a gas
canister, and was trying to get into his trunk, I thought we were
gonna die, I just ran for my life"

Glasgow:"a swaggered by the motor that wis on fire, and the dafty
couldnae even open his boot, he wis oan fire annaw so a ran up n gave
him a guid boot tae the baws"


America: there was this huge explosion, it sounded like war, I thought
i was gonna die"

Glasgow:" There wis a bang, yi know when yi throw B.O. basher intae a
fire it wis like that"


America:" I'm too traumatized even to speak, I thought i was gonna
die"

Glasgow "here mate, gies 2 minutes till a phone ma auld dear, if am
gonna be oan the telly a want her tae tape it"



Finally, two quotes from an eyewitness- John Smeaton (these
are real)

John just surpassed himself on the National ITV news. The interviewer
asked "What message do you have for the bombers" - he replied "This is
Glasgow we'll just set about you"

John did an interview on cnn and they asked how he restrained the guy
and he said "me and other folk were just tryin to get the boot in and
some other guy banjoed him" !

    For the guy who's racked up 200+ posts in a little over two months yet accuses others of spending their

    entire life on the internet

    To be honest, I have absolutely no idea where the 200 posts came from. It was on 60-something IIRC correctly on the old MBUK forum. that was about 2 posts a day.
    Then this opens, and there's LOADS.

    Let me clarify, it was on 60, then, as soon as I logged on to here, it was 200-odd, before I even posted anything.
