Airline Passenger Meltdowns Spark Viral Videos on US Flights

A video posted to World Star Hip Hop shows an unnamed woman on a flight to Detroit climbing seats, swearing profusely and behaving erratically, an incident described by the uploader as an “exorcist‑style” meltdown. She was eventually escorted off the aircraft.

In a separate incident, a visibly intoxicated man caused a disturbance on a U.S. flight, with his father attempting to calm him while crew members repeatedly warned him to behave. A flight attendant warned, "You're not behaving. I'm gonna call the captain, okay. Please behave," and the man was later restrained with plastic handcuffs. Both videos went viral and prompted questions about airline boarding procedures and passenger safety.
