(Video) Man Chooses To Live In An Airport For 80 Days
29-year-old Jaeger Mah from Canada has won the opportunity to live in Vancouver International Airport for 80 days. The man will not exactly be sleeping on the ground or having to eat the airport food, he will be staying in a suite with floor-to-ceiling views of the runways at Fairmont Vancouver Airport Hotel and given three meals a day but he will have 24/7 access to most parts of the airport. Mah wants to investigate abnormal things such as discovering how many cans of paint it takes to paint a runway and find out where confiscated items go. Mah submitted a video in his attempt to win the competition as part of the airport’s 80th anniversary. Watch his submission and read more about him after the jump. @Julie1205
