Viral Video: A video filmed inside an American flight showed a woman passenger creating a ruckus on a flight en route to New York. However, she was knocked down by a male flight attendant after she tried to enter the pilot’s cockpit on an American Airlines Flight 950. According to reports, she did so to question the pilot about the delay.
As the video starts, a pilot opens the door, and a male flight attendant pushes the woman onto the flight’s floor and grabs her by the neck within seconds. To free herself, she threatened the crew members by saying that “she would kick them in the ba**s.” According to reports, the incident happened moments before takeoff on a flight en route from So Paulo to New York.
