A passenger at an airport partially destroyed his suitcase in an apparent bid to avoid paying a fee.
A TikTok video shared by another traveler, Kimberly Ann Standen, shows the man tearing the pull-up handle off the case before pushing it into a rack that determines the dimensions of a carry-on bag.
The passenger stood on the suitcase while ripping off the frame in a bid to make it fit. The hack appears to work as the video shows the bag then fitting into the slot.

The passenger appeared to be traveling on an easyJet flight to Gatwick airport in London.
The UK-based airline allows passengers to take a small bag onboard at no charge, per its website, or pay for a larger carry-on bag. Any bags too big for the cabin must be checked at a cost of about £40 ($51). It also offers a "handy bag-sizing tool" on its iOS app.
Standen, who filmed the video at the airport on the Spanish island of Mallorca, told the Daily Mail the man spent between 10 and 15 minutes "bashing" the suitcase to remove its wheels.
"I only managed to film the end of it but before this he had been kicking it, throwing it about, smashing the wheels on the floor," she said. Standen added that other passengers seemed to approve: "Some people cheered and a lot of people were laughing and were flabbergasted at what they witnessed."
One comment under the TikTok video stated "will be cheaper to buy a new suitcase than paying the fee anyway," but another said "they literally post their baggage sizes online and people still don't read."EasyJet didn't immediately respond to a request for comment from Insider, made outside normal working hours.

Plunging into rich saltwater in a sheltered area protected from the turbulent waves, yet still refreshed by the tide twice a day, is an unfettered joy.
As befits a landscape that has been regularly repurposed and reimagined over millennia of dynamic human use and interaction, Eryri (or Snowdonia) is woven like a Welsh blanket with a multitude of tracks and paths. There are Neolithic ways leading to burial mounds, Roman roads past stone forts, snaking trails through coppiced woodland to abandoned mineral workings, drovers’ roads over bleak moorland, old narrow-gauge railway tracks and slate paths haunted by the ghosts of miners walking home from slate quarry to slate cottage. Somehow, Traws Eryri (Trans Snowdonia), a new 140-mile (225km), mainly off-road bikepacking route from Machynlleth to Conwy across the great mountain fastness of north-east Wales, manages to follow them all.
