Last week, a woman who was apparently attached with insulating tape to the seat of an airplane after she allegedly attacked the flight crew and tried to open the door of the airplane in flight.
A video posted on social media shows a gray-haired woman with duct tape on her mouth, and her arms and body glued to the seat. When the other passengers got off the plane, she shouted, “You! You! You! ”And the flight attendants calmly nodded goodbye, according to a video posted by TikTok @ lol.ariee.
The incident occurred on a 1774 American Airlines flight, a two-hour flight on July 6 from Dallas-Fort Worth to Charlotte, North Carolina, was delayed for at least three hours before it finally took off at midnight. , but about an hour after the flight began, chaos began, said @ lol.ariee in the following video describing the stormy scene.
The flight attendants started turning on the lights around 1:30 a.m., she said, “and we see all the flight attendants running back and forth down the aisles, and frantically whispering to each other.” >
According to @ lol.ariee, the crew began to lock the bathrooms, take the bags out of the top drawers and not say what was happening.
“It was like chaos, and no one knows what’s going on,” she continued.
Finally, the pilot spoke on the intercom, asking people to stay in their seats and referring to the “bad situation on the plane.”
When the plane was about to land, the flight attendant sitting next to him explained that the woman with a clear mental illness “had an attack and had a desire to get off the plane. She said, “I need to get off this plane,” and she walked to the exit and started knocking on the door, saying, “You have to get me off this plane!”
“I assume that it took the strength of all five flight attendants to tame it and literally immobilize it,” she said of the incident, which was first reported by TMZ. “They put her on a seat and wrapped her in a ribbon.”
American Airlines confirmed the incident, telling The Post that the woman attacked the flight attendant and bit her after she “tried to open the front door of the plane” and was detained “for the safety of other passengers and our team. “
