Considering it's almost become commonplace for people to be attacked or forced off planes, this is a bit of a welcome change.

Or maybe it's a fate worse than being manhandled off the plane; it really all depends on how you feel about accordion players. This French accordion player was on a Ryanair flight with his accordion in his lap bag when, out of nowhere, he was approached by two cabin crew and ordered to start playing.

As you can see in the video, the man - at first - is a bit shocked as the cabin crew approached him and doesn't seem to understand what's happening, but before long, he's even got the guy sitting next to him singing Dirty Old Town and half the plane cheering him on.

Take a look.
