-Sensational headline again !! From what I have read, and if you read the article, it slipped from the side of the taxiway ???? As I understood it aircraft larger than a 757 had to do a lot of 'back tracking' to avoid that taxiway ..... !!

-Unbelievable sensationalism, the aircraft went onto the grass from the taxiway, not the runway.
Kieth, that's not true about that taxiway, I have sat behind 777s on there before. luckily I am on leave and didn't get caught up in it all. I did hear a rumour they were avoiding a squirrel.

Fortunately no injuries, but a couple of interesting comments! Was it raining yesterday?
