Really, Mark Wahlberg?
I think plenty of men could of overpowered the terrorists on that flight as they had only box cutters, its just that there was a lack of complete understanding of what was going on. There was some bloodshed, probably viewed by many as a control tactic but obviously there was a lack of communication on board with the passengers, and they believed that it was a simple hijacking and there was an element of surprise.
Nowadays, things would be much different, that we all would agree. Including Mark, but he is looking in hindsight. If he was on that flight in first class, he would have just laid low IMO, and waited things out.
