SHOCKING footage shows a drunken air passenger bound and strapped to a seat after punching a flight attendant in the face.

The violent incident occurred on an Aeroflot flight from the island of Sakhalinsk, off Russia's eastern coast, to Moscow.

Pic shows: Maxim G strapped to the seat; This is the shocking moment that a drunken air passenger was bound and strapped to a seat after punching a flight attendant in the face. It happened on an Aeroflot flight from the city of Yuzhno-Sakhalinsk, on the island of Sakhalinsk off Russia's eastern coast, to the capital city of Moscow. The captain tried to convince the passenger, named as Maxim G, to calm down and return to his seat after flight attendants complained about his behaviour. But, instead, Maxim G lost his temper and punched one of the stewards in the face. Other passengers rushed to help the cabin crew restrain him before binding his wrists behind his back with duct tape from the galley. They then strapped him into a flight attendant's seat to keep him away from other passengers. The incident was filmed by another passenger with a smartphone who uploaded the footage to social media where it quickly went viral. In the clip, Maxim G can be heard still swearing at the cabin crew and challenging them to a fight - despite his predicament. He says: "Come on, punch me, come on. You can do it, can't you? Punch me f***ing hard!" The video attracted lots of posts by online commentators including netizen 'Sergey Vasiliev' who summed up the feelings of the majority when he said: "Go punch him if he wants it so much!" The plane was met on the runway by police officers who took Maxim G into custody. He faces charges and a possible jail sentence. Aeroflot, officially titled Aeroflot – Russian Airlines, is the Russian Federation's largest and best known airline.
