New details are emerging about the rowdy behaviour of two Research In Motion executives who were fired for disrupting an intercontinental flight — including that they managed to chew their way out of restraints after being handcuffed by crew members.
George Campbell, 45, and Paul Alexander Wilson, 38, each pleaded guilty to mischief for disrupting an Air Canada flight from Toronto to Beijing last week.
The plane landed instead in Vancouver, where a court later ordered them to pay $72,000 in restitution. They also received suspended sentences and were placed on parole for a year.
RIM fired both men after investigating the incident, but little information has been made public about what was so disruptive about their behaviour.
However, court documents obtained by CBC News paint a very chaotic picture.

It isn't clear if RIM will be reviewing their hiring practices and/or their travel policies.
Thanks, Matt.

So much for that "quiet, polite Canadian" stereotype.
