Zlatan's Wild Helicopter Ride to World Cup Final
19 Jul
Summary
- Zlatan Ibrahimovic experienced a fear of flying during a helicopter trip.
- The Fox broadcast crew traveled via ferry, helicopter, and car.
- The journey included a police escort to reach the stadium on time.
The Fox broadcast crew undertook an eventful journey to cover the World Cup Final between Spain and Argentina at MetLife Stadium.
Their expedition began under the Brooklyn Bridge, where they filmed their extensive pregame show. The team then boarded a ferry across the East River, continuing their transit to New Jersey via helicopter.
During the helicopter flight, former footballer Zlatan Ibrahimovic admitted to being terrified, gripping the door and joking about his fear. He humorously stated he was "s-ting in my pants but OK," expressing relief at having his colleagues nearby.
Upon arriving in New Jersey, the crew experienced a police-escorted drive to the stadium, which Ibrahimovic likened to the video game Grand Theft Auto. The group successfully reached the stadium in time for the highly anticipated match, as fans were also facing significant queues.
