"We couldn't believe that we were too heavy for the plane to take off."

 

"It was a decent-sized plane full of holidaymakers so it was devastating to be told that even a big plane like that couldn't cope with all our weight being at the back."

It was nothing to do with being too heavy; it was the uneven distribution of weight within the plane.

Its called denial.

 

Good to see this embarrassment made them lose some weight. Everybody gained something from the incident in the end.
