A man aboard a Southwest Airlines flight decided to startle passengers and crew by screaming when a baby who had been crying for 40 minutes showed no signs of calming. His posture was recorded and the video went viral on social media.
In the video, the flight attendants try to calm down the passenger, who gets even more upset and starts insulting the team with several swear words. One of the stewardesses tries to explain that the man’s tone of voice will not solve the problem. “You scream!” she says. “The baby too!” he replies.
On the passenger side you can see a woman who looks very embarrassed. She remains silent through most of the confusion.
The images, which already have more than 200,000 views, were posted on TikTok by user @mjgrabowski. He appears a few times in the recording, laughing with the other passengers.
The confusion meant some people had to disembark and the man had to speak to airport officials when he reached the ground.
The case divided opinions in the networks. While some users say that crying a child is really maddening, others claim that the man was not only exaggerating but also acting like a child.
