Passenger tries to open airplane door for a smoke

A French tourist tried to open the door of a Cathay Pacific airliner, in flight, to smoke a cigarette.

She's on trial in Australia (where the flight was headed), and is using the "I'm scared to fly, so I got drunk" defense.

Look, I'm scared to fly, and a big part of the fear is falling out of the plane. I get nervous walking by the emergency exits. I would NEVER touch one, much less try to open the damn thing.
