Video/Pic: Watch as Russian passengers actually push a plane down a runway in -52C
The next time you complain about air travel, just be thankful that you don’t have to get out and push like these unfortunate passengers in Russia.
Igarka Airport in the city of Krasnoyarsk, Russia, faced a staggering -52C this morning according to RT.com, and it was so cold that passengers and airport crew were tasked with pushing a plane down the runway.
And no, it wasn't for a world record attempt. It was just ridiculously cold outside...

YouTube user Vladimir Ulyanov managed to capture some footage of the incident (above), while Buzzfeed writer Max Seddon recently tweeted out this picture...
Provincial Russian airports, where passengers get out and push a plane like it's no big deal. http://t.co/uijWPcwRwV pic.twitter.com/9jYYvVUlm3

At least Max looked out and saw people pushing, instead of seeing a gremlin on the wing.
