A BRIT lost his rag when confronted by airport security, but he exploded into a full on tantrum when cocaine allegedly fell out of his pocket.

The suspected smuggler, Marc Patrick Wharton, was filmed flailing on the floor and shouting as he realised he could face life in a hellish Thai prison.

On February 18, the 42-year-old had flown from Shanghai, China, to the island of Phuket in Thailand when he was pulled aside by security officers.

He then launched into a fit of rage, which saw him rampage around the area and roll on the ground.

Wharton’s apparent attempt to distract officers failed when 4.11 grams of cocaine allegedly fell out of his pocket.

Despite the failure of his ploy, he continued flailing and rolling on the ground, allegedly spreading the white powder across the floor.

A video taken of the incident showed the Brit on his back weakly pummelling his chest with his hands while begging for help.

With the punishment for cocaine possession in Thailand being 20 years to life, Wharton had a lot to scream about.

During the tantrum he ended up kicking his legs into the air and panicking that he was going to die.

Police eventually arrested him and took him into custody while seizing the split plastic bag and its contents.

Cops at the international airport have since said that they tested the powder that Wharton allegedly dropped and confirmed it was the Class A drug.

According to officials, the Brit had arrived at the airport on a Juneyao Air flight HO 1323 from Shanghai without alerting suspicion from Communist cops.

Police Major Akkarapon Akkraphon, immigration checkpoint inspector at the airport, said: “We charged the tourist with importing a Category II narcotic into the country and illegally possessing it.”

“He was handed over to the inquiry officer of the Sakhu Police Station for legal action.”

Under Thai law, cocaine is a category 2 narcotic that can be punished with a life sentence and a fine.

The fines can range from 2,000,000 to 5,000,000 Baht, which translates to between £47,151 and £117,878.

But tourists are often able to negotiate their jail sentences with the authorities who do not want to pay for the cost of keeping them there.

It comes months after another British tourist, Jamie Louis Swain from Enfield, north London, was arrested in Phuket last May.

The 29-year-old was detained after the immigration desk allegedly found cocaine tucked inside his passport.

Officers said that Jamie reacted with surprise, swearing and shaking, prompting authorities to conduct further inspections.

Jamie was taken into custody and sent to court but surfaced again in England a few months later as his mum claimed he had been set up by the police.

VIRGIN Media star Muireann O’Connell filled in for Ryan Tubridy on his Q102 show this morning.

The Ireland AM host has lots of previous radio credits as she has helmed the former RTE star’s show in the past.

Muireann also had her own show on Today FM that she was fired from in 2019.

Ryan’s show on Q102 airs weekday mornings from 10am to 1pm.

Taking to her Instagram at a more reasonable hour this morning, Muireann shared the news with fans.

Sitting under a giant photo of Ryan, Muireann said: “Ever feel like a benevolent god is watching you?”

The 41-year-old then jokingly glanced up at the photo of Tubridy and reassured him: “Hi Ryan, how’s it going? I’m just filling in for the day, I’m not going to break it.

“It’s going to be… it’s fine Ryan. Just fine.”

For her radio return, Muireann popped on a stunning black crew neck wool jumper.

She rounded off her look by pairing her jumper with some elegant gold pendant necklaces and wore her hair down.

The last time Muireann took over for Tubridy, she opened up about her “anxiety” upon her return to radio.

She said: “The anxiety is really starting to ratchet up because tomorrow for the first time in five years I’m going back on the radio.

“So Tubs is on holidays and the wonderful Martin King has been covering on Q102 all week but obviously Martin has to work tomorrow.

“And I don’t know what happened, I must of been having an outer body experience because I’ve said no to every other radio gig since everything went down and I said yes.”

The popular presenter explained how nervous she is saying: “But now I’m like, ‘What do I do?’. I can’t remember how to do the radio.

“Now the music on Q is absolutely amazing, I love it. But other than that, what do I talk about, these ridiculous sunglasses?

“No one cares what sunglasses I’m wearing, I’m on the radio. I can’t remember how to press the buttons. I don’t know how to count back to do the news.

“I can’t remember how to do anything but I’m hoping it’s going to be okay. I am very sorry Q102 listeners but I’ll remember how to do it before 10 o’clock tomorrow, right? Sorry lads!”

Before this, Muireann’s last time on the radio was in 2019, when she was fired from Today FM.

When she was let-go, she made the announcement on Twitter saying: “Hello lovely people! I have been fired from Today FM. It’s all good.

“Like it’s embarrassing and I’m a bit sad but I love almost everyone in that station and wish them all the best in the future.”
