On February 4, 1969 an eastern Airlines flight from Newark to Miami was hijacked and the pilot was ordered to land in Cuba.
Only one passenger and the entire aircrew was in the least nervous.
The passenger's name was Alan Funt.
People were cheerful and laughing at the hijacker and nobody realized they were in any danger at all until the airplane landed in Havana.
Funt had been recognized by some of the passengers and spread word. The entire plane thought they were part of Funt's TV show, Candid Camera.
