Yeah, lol I remember reading that also, something about he had all of his concert gear plus other entertainers and (Ali I think) on board the plane and it was over weight for take off.

It's a pretty good documentary on what went down during the landmark 1974 Ali and Foreman match in the Motherland, Rumble In The Jungle. I still can't believe Foreman thought someone put a spell on him during that whole trip in Africa because he got beat in one mighty blow by Ali during the match.

But anyways, that was one funky clip of James and Co. Need more footage of it!
