A 26-year-old Briton on an EgyptAir plane Tuesday did what Millennials do all the time: He took a selfie. This wasn't just any selfie, however. The photo included the man authorities say hijacked Ben Innes' plane. Innes was one of the remaining hostages during a six-hour standoff at Cyprus' Larnaca airport, the Guardian reported.

Investigations are still going on about the airplane that crashed leaving Egypt in October. Egypt is still saying it was not terrorism but it is known that a worker might have a link to a cousin who joined the Islamic State. This is an issue because tourism is one of Egypt's main economic contributors, but since the attack no foreigners from Europe or Russia have been able to travel there.

EgyptAir Flight MS181 was taken over by a passenger claiming to be wearing a suicide explosive belt. A hijacking that diverted a domestic Egyptian flight to Cyprus has ended with all hostages released and the hijacker surrendering.
