Terry Bradshaw Reveals The Unfortunate Truth After Everyone Called Him A “Hero” For Saving Trapped Passengers On Airplane In Pittsburgh
Pittsburgh Steelers legend Terry Bradshaw has clarified a report about him putting on the Superman cape for his fellow passengers during a flight into Steel City on Thursday.
In case you missed it, Ricky Sayer of KDKA in Pittsburgh reported on Thursday that the Hall of Fame quarterback played hero on an aircraft that was flying from Dallas-Fort Worth to Pittsburgh.
Sayer spoke to someone on the flight who claimed that they were all trapped on the plane for about 30 minutes, as the passenger door got stuck and wouldn’t open. The passenger claimed that Terry Bradshaw managed to force it open, much to the relief of those on board.
But on Friday afternoon, the four-time Super Bowl champion took to Instagram to pour cold water on this story. Bradshaw says that he was on the plane, but it was actually the maintenance crew who pried open the door after trying for 15 minutes:
Good on Terry Bradshaw for giving the credit to the maintenance workers, the real heroes in this mini mishap. But as a former NFL quarterback who stood at 6-foot-3 and 215 pounds in his playing days, it’s easy to understand why so many folks just assumed that it was a true story.
Bradshaw spent his entire 14-year playing career in Pittsburgh, earning three Pro Bowl nods and 1978 MVP honors. Bradshaw threw for 27,989 yards and 212 touchdowns, numbers that were considered excellent for quarterbacks in those days.

As reported by Sayer, Bradshaw flew into Pittsburgh to take part in the Mel Blount celebrity roast on Friday night. The Hall of Fame cornerback was Bradshaw’s longtime teammate in Pittsburgh, with both playing pivotal roles in the Steelers winning four Super Bowls during the “Steel Curtain” era.
