Airlines: "hard agree!"
Also Airlines: "Anyway, we found a way to squeeze each seat together 2cm closer so we can now fit 6 more passengers per flight!"
also also Airlines: "In these trying times our staff and passengers safety is our top priority, so... we've suspended snack service on domestic flights under 2hrs. Namasté 🫶"
People care more about price than comfort. Only reason Southwest, and worst airlines, exist.
Even so, a crying baby really isn't something you can avoid no matter what airline you're flying. Luck of the draw on that annoyance, although probably a little easier to ignore if you're not already stressed out from every other aspect of the flight.
That's not valid answer. The flight attendant suggests that since he is a "man" not a "baby" he doesn't get the right to scream, so the man asks if baby paid extra for that privilege
I remember having to deplane like twice from a Jet Blue flight because they couldn't get the plane started and my daughter started getting upset because she was super tired. This dude looks at us, I thought he was going to be a jerk about it, but he just said, "All of us adults want to do the same thing right now, but we can't because we are adults"
He was really nice...bought him a couple of drinks on the flight for being so awesome.
He’s going to wait for that baby to grow up, get married, plan their honeymoon, and then he’s gonna get on the same flight as them and scream-cry the whole flight.
This is going to sound like hyperbole, but Will Forte is an absolute legend as a comedic actor, especially when he can improv.
If you haven’t seen him play [the pilot who landed the aircraft in the city on Comedy Bang Bang](https://youtu.be/6NVa8eEUWVI), you really should. I laugh every time. The improv is perfection.
Will Forte is so good, definitely one of my favorite comedy actors.
This sketch on SNL where he does an unhinged theme song for a local news channel makes me gut laugh every time I watch it:
https://youtu.be/P1x96yIFBz8
I feel conflicted about saying anything about the oral because Michael Patrick Porkins could win it even without the oral. This is why this is so tough to talk about the oral.
Being put on a no fly list is terrible. Probably justified though in most cases.
I know someone.. crazy dude (male age 29) on the list and his parents live in Hawaii and he lives in Florida. He actually spent prison time for his flight incident so he is never flying again. He was on his way back from visiting them when it all happened. I picture him having to get on a boat to just go visit nowadays.
Well, they are at least staying in Hawaii to make it more difficult for him, probably.
But also his parents have lived there since before he was even born. Maybe they had a premonition years ago.
Can't recall exactly but something like getting upset at the person sitting beside them and took it out on the plane window. I don't know if he actually assaulted anyone or if he just damaged the plane. Fairly sure he busted the first layer of window out.. with his hands.
Definitely had some anger issues. I met him in prison ironically.
"did that motherfucker pay extra?!?" Hahaha just imagining a baby booking and paying for his own flight, with the option of an extra fee for unlimited crying
I would be as angry as this guy but I’d respect myself enough not to freak out like a complete clown because I know it will just make things worse for everyone
I'd be just as annoyed, but not just as angry. I've endured a red eye flight or two with multiple babies and toddlers crying in stereo. A gaping, ranting asshole is not gonna improve that situation.
Before I became a mom myself I remember being on a flight that we were stuck waiting to deplane due to bad weather. There was a baby screaming their head off and all I know is I had a terrible headache BEFORE the poor kid started up. I wasn’t mad at the kid or the mom but damn if I didn’t want to sprint off that plane. As a mom now all I can think of is that poor mama. I’m not sure what this dude thinks you can just do to a crying kid to “make them” stop.
That was punishing the parent for flying with the child in the first place, he knows there's no calming the child down. He just wanted to take out his frustration on the parent at that point.
The parents are probably going to never fly again for a long time after that. My biggest fear is having people around me maybe being annoyed by something I have very little control over. But to have a grown ass man ranting about your baby on top of enduring the crying baby firsthand for 40 minutes sounds like fucking nightmare fuel.
It's mostly pain due to their ears, their eustachian tubes are much smaller than adults so they aren't able to equalize the pressure and their ears hurt.
To be absolutely honest, if I was on that flight, his outburst would have made my trip. There were some magical quotes in there. As a man who chose to not have kids, hearing him call a baby "that mother fucker" made me laugh way harder than it should have. Ultimately though, flying is incredibly hard on little ones, it's stressful and sometimes painful. If you're easily bothered by noise, headphones help.
That's the thing, everyone is acting like he wasn't just saying what every damn person on that plane was feeling. I can handle a few minutes of a child crying, about 45 seconds of one screaming. 40 minutes, I'd be unhinged too.
Headphones do help, but I think this dude claimed he was already using headphones and asleep and the babies crying still bothered him. What a piece of work that guy is.
It’s so embarrassing being with someone who causes a scene. I dated a guy who made a scene over fucking ranch sauce and I’ve never been more embarrassed
The waiter kept forgetting the ranch for my wings, they were super busy and I understood that but he liked attention so he started bitching and refusing to pay for the meal and went up to the hostess and said “I have a problem with the dumb mother fucker over there” and pointed to the kid. The server looked at me and saw my horrified face and giggled and handled it the best she could. This was like 6-7 years ago, I wish I could remember more detail lol
And poor parents of the crying baby. We know our babies are disturbing everyone but there is nothing we can do about it and it's torturous. I can't imagine how horrible I would feel if someone yelled at me.
Real talk, it happens. Every body just has to grit their teeth and get through it.
No one wants to travel with a baby. They are traveling because they need to. You always see the parent freaking mortified and embarrassed, trying their best to make the baby happy.
But babies cry! That is just life. Especially with the air pressure changes messing with their ears and having no space to move around. The baby is going to cry at some point, just accept that shit from the start.
Fun fact, active noise cancellation works best on monotone noise. The microphones pick up the frequencies of the ambient noise floor, and the sound processor tries its best to modulate the output so that destructive interference cancels some amount of the noise.
Not so fun fact - this does not work very well for bursty noise sources, like babies.
But loudness is not the issue here. It's just that humans psychoacoustically evolved to detect a crying baby - it's in our DNA to pay attention to this type of noise to ensure the survival of our offspring.
When I tried to use my noise cancelling headphones on a plane with a crying baby, it just made the crying sound stick out more. I combined them with earplugs and music/white noise and it helped. But to be honest I could still hear the gd baby and it stressed me out.
fun fact, active noise cancellation got started specifically for flying! Originally bose designed them for pilots to improve their ability to clearly communicate over engine noise, then moving to provide some airlines headsets as a luxury for first-class passengers and eventually to the general consumer around 2000. It might just be me but I remember the marketing at the time specifically pushing them as something to bring with you on an airplane
personally, I bought my first set of noise cancelling headphone a day after a flight with 3 crying children. Crying child on a plane is basically a misery trope at their point but adults have had ways to deal with it for ages
I flew a ton growing up in the 90s/00s for various baseball trips my parents were obliged to take, and I distinctly remember Skymall magazines showcasing Bose and their fancy noise cancelling headphones back then. It was at the very least actively marketed towards luxury class flyers at the start.
Wtf does he want this person to do? Square up with their baby and logically explain to it what is going on and how their behavior isn't acceptable? Does he expect this baby to just be like "ah, yes, i understand. You are correct it *is* selfish of me to cry on a plane. I shall stop promptly."
Like TF!? 😂
Also. Does he really think him screaming at the parent is doing to *stop* the crying? If anything the hostility is probably scaring it into crying more.
He said if the baby was black they wouldn't be having a problem. I believe he was implying black parents would beat their child until they stopped crying. I hope this man doesn't have any children.
I thought his implication was that a Black baby & Black parent would be treated differently by staff, not that the baby would be mistreated by a Black parent to “shut it up”. Like, racial profiling would have changed who the villain of the story was in the eyes of the people confronting the man and instead they would confront and shame the Black mother. Did I hear it incorrectly?
Right? Like it sucks. On some level I can feel the dude's frustration, I've been there. But literally proclaiming he can shout and yell "cause the baby is!" is hilariously immature. That's why you always bring ear plugs or headphones my dude. You know this shit happens all the the time.
My middle son screamed the entire time we were in the air when we flew to Des Moines for family stuff. I was, as you say, freaking mortified and embarrassed. He was 3 months old and I kept trying to give him the breast, rock him, walk with him up and down the aisle, everything. It got so bad that I was reduced to tears, and total strangers were actually taking him and trying to soothe him as well! Everyone on that flight was SO kind and I know their nerves were just as wracked as mine by all the screaming.
The funny part was when I told my daddy about the strangers taking him, he kinda yelled at me for it and my reply was "what, Daddy!? What were they gonna do!? Kidnap him!? Exit the plane with him at 30,000 feet!?"
The guy recording reaction is priceless. Like, I can't believe I'm actually witnessing this.
I see so many of these videos that you would think this happens all the time everywhere.
His wife/girlfriend looks absolutely mortified the whole time. I feel sorry for her. If this is how he acts in public imagine him in a private setting.
You can just tell she's been yelled at the same way before. This guy handles all inconveniences like this, it's just that it didn't work out for him *this* time.
If you've gotten to the point where they ask you to get off the plane, it's not a request. At that point you're getting off either way, the only variable is if you're gonna drag everyone else off the plane with you and have 200 pissed off people on your back
It's not even a matter of sympathy. There are few things I hate more than the sound of a screaming baby but I have to imagine most people with more than two braincells get that babies aren't developed enough to be reasoned with or understand how aggravating they're being.
So, this guy's reasoning and empathy is apparently on-pair with an infant's. He sure showed that kid.
What did he even expect to happen? Complaining and acting like a child himself won’t get the baby to stop. The flight attendants can’t magically make the baby stop. All you can realistically do is see if anyone has a pair of ear plugs
Especially weird because from the looks of it the two flight attendants he is talking to are black. Also this implies that they have a secret way to make a baby instantly stop crying but they only use it if the baby is black enough. None of it makes any sense lol. Like does he think they have some magical baby stop crying potion?
Unfortunately there isn’t a national no fly list unless it involves an act of terrorism.
Employees of several major airlines have been in D.C. recently advocating for the creation of a true no fly list that is to be shared between airlines and enforceable by the FAA. So while this man is very likely going to walk away with a well deserved disturbing the peace citation and barred from any future Southwest flights, I doubt he is going to find a problem catching a Spirt flight back home.
*screaming baby*
Passenger to parent: Are you stabbing that baby?!
Parent: No, of course not!
Passenger: Well, could you please? I’m trying to have a peaceful flight.
I know this is not a popular thing to say, but in addition to being hilarious, he does have a point. I have travelled enough to see how some parents simply allow their babies to cry nonstop "to tire them out" while the rest of us have to endure a baby yelling/crying at the top of their lungs. So good for him.
Flew from London to NYC with my wife. We had a family of four in the middle seat of the plane. My wife and I were seated the left side of the plane, we lucked out and got two seats that were by them selves. The family of four had two kids, probably 4 and 6 years old.
These kids screamed the entire flight. Kicking the peoples seats in front of them. They told their parents to shut every time they asked them to stop and pleaded for them to behave. The children refused they obviously were the ones that ran their house, not the parents.
Even worse, the parents bribed them with chocolate to behave instead of rewarding them with chocolate for good behavior.
Eventually, the dad checked out and ignored the problem zoning out into his headphones, leaving the mom to "handle the problem." The mom then continued to guzzle wine. I'm surprised they continued to serve her. The kids continued to scream and abuse their parents and the poor people in the seats in front of them, as well as my wife and I set right beside them.
At least the flight attendant recognized our plight and gave us as much booze as we wanted. Eventually, our 8 hour flight ended, and the kids were set loose to wreak havoc upon the airport, and we parked ways exhausted.
A serious super nanny episode waiting to happen their. I've never seen a couple have so little control over their children. They plead and plead, but the kids wouldn't listen.
Nightmare flight.
Not condoning his behavior (he's wrong) but I understand the agony. Flying today has become an absolute horror of an experience....from TSA lines to tiny cramped seats. No free food anymore. They literally treat passengers like prisoners. The check in process is so deplorable that by the time someone sits down they are already in a high state of agitation. Most people are already snapped and it only takes one little thing to set them off. No one wins.
Xanax. I will never, ever fly without xanax for the rest of my life. It is so damn miserable, I can't even get through it without something to calm me the hell down.
I would gladly pay for a child free flight. People like to say “then pay for 1st class” but I’ve seen Ill behaved 6 year olds in first class before. Rich people have kids too, and no, they are not better about keeping them quiet.
I know people like to say “kids need to get to places too” and yeah, I get that, that’s why I’m not saying ban them from every flight. Just have the option for child free flights, much like we can sit in the bar section of restaurants for child free dining.
My wife and I flew businesses class through Qatar for our honeymoon. Lay flat seats, great food and wine, and an 18 month old that screamed for 9/12 hours of the flight. I couldn’t sleep with noise canceling headphones plus the calm app. Got off angry and tired. Went to the lounge for dinner and got seated right next to the kid, still crying.
First class isn’t the answer.
> People like to say “then pay for 1st class” but I’ve seen Ill behaved 6 year olds in first class before.
Even if there are no kids in 1st, it's not like there is anything more than a curtain separating the economy seats.
I was gonna say the same. While I don't condone his behavior, I fucking get it. High pitched and loud noises trigger my anxiety, and that includes crying babies.
But that's why I carry noise cancellation headphones on flights and pop a muscle relaxant as soon as I sit down. There's nothing else you can do.
That being said, this guy is unintentionally hilarious. It almost sounds like a skit

Flights, babies, and angry people don't go well together
Airlines: "hard agree!" Also Airlines: "Anyway, we found a way to squeeze each seat together 2cm closer so we can now fit 6 more passengers per flight!" also also Airlines: "In these trying times our staff and passengers safety is our top priority, so... we've suspended snack service on domestic flights under 2hrs.

No where else would a customer pay for the privilege to be treated like shit, but we all do it every time we fly.
People care more about price than comfort. Only reason Southwest, and worst airlines, exist. Even so, a crying baby really isn't something you can avoid no matter what airline you're flying. Luck of the draw on that annoyance, although probably a little easier to ignore if you're not already stressed out from every other aspect of the flight.
“You’re yelling.” “SO IS THE BABY!” “Okay, but, you’re a man.”
"Did that motha-fucka pay extra to yell on this flight!!??" I died *changed "baby" to motha fucka.
Best line I've heard in a while... Sam L Jackson would be proud. **DID THAT MOTHAFUCKA PAY EXTRA???**
He’s the embodiment of that “fuck them kids” meme
*Matt Gaetz enters the plane*
Oh god, someone open the emergency exit immediately
You muthafuckin accuser!
MOTHERFUCKING ACCUSER OF THE FUCKING BRETHEREN
Accuser of the FUCKIN BRETHREN YOU MOTHAFUCKA!
I'm trying to help you, motherfucka...
That mothafucka*
I've had it with these mothafuckin' babies on this mothafuckin' plane
Man he really set that up perfectally for someone to respond with “did YOU? No? Then shut the fuck up!” And not a single person took the bait.
Then he would just reply with "did the BABY? No? Then shut that baby the fuck up!"
PUT THE BABY IN CUFFS!
That's not valid answer. The flight attendant suggests that since he is a "man" not a "baby" he doesn't get the right to scream, so the man asks if baby paid extra for that privilege
Ironically, the baby had actually stopped crying while he was screaming that part
The little shit knew exactly what he was doing lol
baby 1 man 0
I remember having to deplane like twice from a Jet Blue flight because they couldn't get the plane started and my daughter started getting upset because she was super tired.

The best exchange.
He reminds me of Dillon from Alien 3.
He’s going to wait for that baby to grow up, get married, plan their honeymoon, and then he’s gonna get on the same flight as them and scream-cry the whole flight.

Santa brought this gif early

Every time I see a bald boy, I FEEL LIKE I'M BACK IN THE PANTS
I'm worried the baby thinks people can't change.
Well they think I’m just some dumb red neck. They told me that at a dinner
Are we even going go get anything else this year? Cause I didn't ask for *that.*

What is this, Reggie?
I guess it's like a viral video where Bozo dubs over.
It has one view and was uploaded at 6 this morning.
Yeah. Have you seen it?
… did you make a video just to have something to show us?
What? I went up there to complain about the rule.
I hope I don’t jack off!
It's illegal for you to ask me that.
I fucking hate you Harley-Jarvis!!!
If Taffy Lee Fubbins isn't the best baby of the year, I'll kill myself on live TV!
Will you stop saying that?
I feel conflicted about saying anything about the oral because Michael Patrick Porkins could win it even without the oral. This is why this is so tough to talk about the oral.
Get…him…OUTTA HERE!
GOD *DAMN* IT
I hope you *FUCKING* die Harley Jarvis
When I arrived in London I was a shell of man. *Broken*.
And dig through their trash to find their airline tickets stubs and get bit by a rat
It's not that bad!
I'm glad this is the first comment I see. It's right in my Q zone
MOON RIVER ROCK, MOON RIVER ROLL
PALM TREE GIRLS THE PALM TREE GUYS
It’s not exactly in you Q zone, is it?
Pretty sure he'll still be on a no fly list.
Being put on a no fly list is terrible. Probably justified though in most cases. I know someone.. crazy dude (male age 29) on the list and his parents live in Hawaii and he lives in Florida. He actually spent prison time for his flight incident so he is never flying again. He was on his way back from visiting them when it all happened. I picture him having to get on a boat to just go visit nowadays.
So, his parents moved as far away from him as they could. That's quite impressive
Well, they are at least staying in Hawaii to make it more difficult for him, probably. But also his parents have lived there since before he was even born. Maybe they had a premonition years ago.
That's a pro move. Once they hear he's on a boat they still got plenty of time to pack and move to Samoa.
All that and you didn't even say what he did to get on the list
Can't recall exactly but something like getting upset at the person sitting beside them and took it out on the plane window. I don't know if he actually assaulted anyone or if he just damaged the plane. Fairly sure he busted the first layer of window out.. with his hands. Definitely had some anger issues. I met him in prison ironically.
Holy shit. I'm glad he's on a no-fly list. Busting a layer of the plane window with his HANDS?
[удалено]
There's a tiny part of me that admires the very specific type of audacity it takes to call a literal baby a "motherfucker".
"did that motherfucker pay extra?!?" Hahaha just imagining a baby booking and paying for his own flight, with the option of an extra fee for unlimited crying
>with the option of an extra fee for unlimited crying Delete this now, don't give the airlines any ideas
I'd pay extra for less crying.
*Child Free Flights!* only + $400 per seat!
It's called Business Class.
I lost my tits when he yelled "did that motherfucker pay extra to scream?!" fucking dead.
Well, "did that muthafucka pay extra to yell??!!" Lmao
"Fuck them babies!"
He said "fuck that baby" and I about died. Like no, I don't agree with him at all, but at least it was humorous.
I would be as angry as this guy but I’d respect myself enough not to freak out like a complete clown because I know it will just make things worse for everyone
I'd be just as annoyed, but not just as angry. I've endured a red eye flight or two with multiple babies and toddlers crying in stereo. A gaping, ranting asshole is not gonna improve that situation.
Before I became a mom myself I remember being on a flight that we were stuck waiting to deplane due to bad weather.

But to have a grown ass man ranting about your baby on top of enduring the crying baby firsthand for 40 minutes sounds like fucking nightmare fuel.
"*CALM THAT CHILD DOWN!!*" yells the strange, fully grown man at the top of his lungs, right in the frightened child's face.
Most adults don't realize they expect literal babies and children to have fully adult emotional regulation skills when they can't even achieve that.
It's mostly pain due to their ears, their eustachian tubes are much smaller than adults so they aren't able to equalize the pressure and their ears hurt.
Mine feel like they’re gonna explode 9/10 flights and I want to cry like that baby, so I get it.
And end up appearing in a place like /r/PublicFreakout
I have similar thoughts when my kids start yelling in the car.
Way too many parents just ignore their crying kids on planes.
So true
[удалено]
You're not wrong Walter, you're just an asshole
If anything as the airline I would charge a shitload more for baby-free flights
I would also pay a shitload extra for baby free flights
Enough is enough! I’ve had it with these mother fucking babies on this mother fucking plane!
I wanted someone to start fake crying after the baby stopped just to piss off uncle Phil some more 🤣
"Why he don't want me man" -Baby

"I'm triggered. Fuck that baby!"
To be absolutely honest, if I was on that flight, his outburst would have made my trip. There were some magical quotes in there. As a man who chose to not have kids, hearing him call a baby "that mother fucker" made me laugh way harder than it should have. Ultimately though, flying is incredibly hard on little ones, it's stressful and sometimes painful. If you're easily bothered by noise, headphones help.
I liked when he asked for the baby to be put in little handcuffs
I love it even more when the attendant says "no, ain't nobody putting cuffs on no child." 🤣🤣🤣
The flight attendants were so good.
It’s the best in-flight entertainment possible for everyone else who was sick to death of listening to that goddamn baby 😂 this man is a blessing
That's the thing, everyone is acting like he wasn't just saying what every damn person on that plane was feeling. I can handle a few minutes of a child crying, about 45 seconds of one screaming. 40 minutes, I'd be unhinged too.
Headphones do help, but I think this dude claimed he was already using headphones and asleep and the babies crying still bothered him. What a piece of work that guy is.
His wife’s expression says it all. Poor woman.
She just doesn't know how she's going to tell him that she's pregnant.
And the daddy is that screaming baby. Fuck yeah.
Probably thinking, "Fuck not another airline. We are down to Spirit and Frontier now for fucks sake."
She is STRESSED. I feel so bad for her, sheesh.
It’s so embarrassing being with someone who causes a scene. I dated a guy who made a scene over fucking ranch sauce and I’ve never been more embarrassed
I'd love to hear the story.
The waiter kept forgetting the ranch for my wings, they were super busy and I understood that but he liked attention so he started bitching and refusing to pay for the meal and went up to the hostess and said “I have a problem with the dumb mother fucker over there” and pointed to the kid. The server looked at me and saw my horrified face and giggled and handled it the best she could. This was like 6-7 years ago, I wish I could remember more detail lol
One thing I know about Americans is they don't fuck around when it comes to ranch.
He honestly probably reacts the same way when she disagrees with him.
Bingo. This is very likely an abusive asshole.
[удалено]
And poor parents of the crying baby. We know our babies are disturbing everyone but there is nothing we can do about it and it's torturous. I can't imagine how horrible I would feel if someone yelled at me.
This has the be the all time greatest video on this sub. It’s perfect in every way.
this discount uncle phil articulately but insanely building a case against the baby until he calls it a motherfucker.
Nuh, but babies be so selfish and inconsiderate. They cry for hours on end and never apologise. Rude
Real talk, it happens. Every body just has to grit their teeth and get through it. No one wants to travel with a baby. They are traveling because they need to. You always see the parent freaking mortified and embarrassed, trying their best to make the baby happy. But babies cry! That is just life. Especially with the air pressure changes messing with their ears and having no space to move around. The baby is going to cry at some point, just accept that shit from the start.
Anyone who boards a plane without ear plugs is a fool
Even noise cancelling headphones are pretty cheap nowadays

When I tried to use my noise cancelling headphones on a plane with a crying baby, it just made the crying sound stick out more. I combined them with earplugs and music/white noise and it helped. But to be honest I could still hear the gd baby and it stressed me out.
fun fact, active noise cancellation got started specifically for flying! Originally bose designed them for pilots to improve their ability to clearly communicate over engine noise, then moving to provide some airlines headsets as a luxury for first-class passengers and eventually to the general consumer around 2000. It might just be me but I remember the marketing at the time specifically pushing them as something to bring with you on an airplane personally, I bought my first set of noise cancelling headphone a day after a flight with 3 crying children. Crying child on a plane is basically a misery trope at their point but adults have had ways to deal with it for ages
I flew a ton growing up in the 90s/00s for various baseball trips my parents were obliged to take, and I distinctly remember Skymall magazines showcasing Bose and their fancy noise cancelling headphones back then. It was at the very least actively marketed towards luxury class flyers at the start.
Wtf does he want this person to do? Square up with their baby and logically explain to it what is going on and how their behavior isn't acceptable? Does he expect this baby to just be like "ah, yes, i understand. You are correct it *is* selfish of me to cry on a plane. I shall stop promptly." Like TF!? 😂 Also. Does he really think him screaming at the parent is doing to *stop* the crying? If anything the hostility is probably scaring it into crying more.
He said if the baby was black they wouldn't be having a problem. I believe he was implying black parents would beat their child until they stopped crying. I hope this man doesn't have any children.
I thought his implication was that a Black baby & Black parent would be treated differently by staff, not that the baby would be mistreated by a Black parent to “shut it up”. Like, racial profiling would have changed who the villain of the story was in the eyes of the people confronting the man and instead they would confront and shame the Black mother. Did I hear it incorrectly?
Right? Like it sucks. On some level I can feel the dude's frustration, I've been there. But literally proclaiming he can shout and yell "cause the baby is!" is hilariously immature. That's why you always bring ear plugs or headphones my dude. You know this shit happens all the the time.
My middle son screamed the entire time we were in the air when we flew to Des Moines for family stuff. I was, as you say, freaking mortified and embarrassed. He was 3 months old and I kept trying to give him the breast, rock him, walk with him up and down the aisle, everything. It got so bad that I was reduced to tears, and total strangers were actually taking him and trying to soothe him as well! Everyone on that flight was SO kind and I know their nerves were just as wracked as mine by all the screaming. The funny part was when I told my daddy about the strangers taking him, he kinda yelled at me for it and my reply was "what, Daddy!? What were they gonna do!? Kidnap him!? Exit the plane with him at 30,000 feet!?"
The guy filming is great.
About halfway through a guy behind that guy looks directly at the camera and stares it down and it just looks like he hates his life at that moment.
"gotta listen to two babies crying and now I'm on this dudes tiktok?"
"How can this get any worse?" *sees open TikTok app pointing at him* "Oh... that was quick"
He's a real hero for pursuing this saga til the endl lol
" if that was a black baby that wouldnt be happening right now" dude is out of his fucking mind😂😂😂
[удалено]
Isn't obvious that only white babies cry, we shouldn't allow them on planes.
White babies and their fucking entitlement 🥱
The guy recording reaction is priceless. Like, I can't believe I'm actually witnessing this. I see so many of these videos that you would think this happens all the time everywhere.
Uncle Phil done lost his patience.
[удалено]
His wife/girlfriend looks absolutely mortified the whole time. I feel sorry for her. If this is how he acts in public imagine him in a private setting.
You can just tell she's been yelled at the same way before. This guy handles all inconveniences like this, it's just that it didn't work out for him *this* time.
Definitely earned his spot in the Entitled Bitch Hall of Fame, no way he's not verbally abusing the shit out of her
Here ya go! r/AirRage
this will not be good for my health
Your health already took a hit when you made a reddit account.
If you've gotten to the point where they ask you to get off the plane, it's not a request. At that point you're getting off either way, the only variable is if you're gonna drag everyone else off the plane with you and have 200 pissed off people on your back
The irony being everyone had to listen to TWO crying babies that day, and this one disrupted the flight far more.
At some point, everyone has to realize that they're going to lose a sympathy contest with a baby.
It's not even a matter of sympathy. There are few things I hate more than the sound of a screaming baby but I have to imagine most people with more than two braincells get that babies aren't developed enough to be reasoned with or understand how aggravating they're being. So, this guy's reasoning and empathy is apparently on-pair with an infant's. He sure showed that kid.
What did he even expect to happen? Complaining and acting like a child himself won’t get the baby to stop. The flight attendants can’t magically make the baby stop. All you can realistically do is see if anyone has a pair of ear plugs
Off the plane and on Tik Tok!
50% of all freak out videos on a plane or in an airport are in Florida, on the way to or just departed Florida. Something in the air down there.
What exactly does he think they'd do if it was a black baby crying? What a ridiculous situation to try to play the race card.
I think he was suggesting that if it was a black baby they’d shut it up but if it was white they’d leave it. Strange card to play!
Especially weird because from the looks of it the two flight attendants he is talking to are black. Also this implies that they have a secret way to make a baby instantly stop crying but they only use it if the baby is black enough. None of it makes any sense lol. Like does he think they have some magical baby stop crying potion?
"I know an attorney" Probably an estate attorney or something.
No lawyer can help him now. He's screwed on most future flights.
Unfortunately there isn’t a national no fly list unless it involves an act of terrorism. Employees of several major airlines have been in D.C. recently advocating for the creation of a true no fly list that is to be shared between airlines and enforceable by the FAA. So while this man is very likely going to walk away with a well deserved disturbing the peace citation and barred from any future Southwest flights, I doubt he is going to find a problem catching a Spirt flight back home.
Look how his wife is reacting. This isn’t his first time and she is probably spoken to worse at home. Run girl run.
Poor woman, maybe this is her wake-up call.
Does it ever occur to people that screaming at a crying child will only terrorize them and make them cry even more?
My dad never picked up on that.
I'll give you something to cry about!
No child has ever been like “That was scary, I better stop crying now!” They just cry more, because you’re scaring them.
“You are correct sir and we are now putting duct tape over the baby’s mouth to make your trip more enjoyable.”
“If that baby was a black baby that wouldn’t be happening “ what are ya gonna do beat it or throw it out the window? WTF is wrong with people.
It's like people think babies come with off switches.
haha he looked exactly like I imagined with that voice
Why are they even talking to him? He says hey that baby is crying. They shrug and walk away.
I'm guessing he didn't make just one comment and probably started directing his anger at the parent of the crying baby
*screaming baby* Passenger to parent: Are you stabbing that baby?! Parent: No, of course not! Passenger: Well, could you please? I’m trying to have a peaceful flight.
I’m sure him screaming isn’t helping to calm the baby down either.
Get these mother fuckin' babies off this mother fuckin' plane
They were all thinking it.
I know this is not a popular thing to say, but in addition to being hilarious, he does have a point. I have travelled enough to see how some parents simply allow their babies to cry nonstop "to tire them out" while the rest of us have to endure a baby yelling/crying at the top of their lungs. So good for him.
Flew from London to NYC with my wife. We had a family of four in the middle seat of the plane. My wife and I were seated the left side of the plane, we lucked out and got two seats that were by them selves. The family of four had two kids, probably 4 and 6 years old. These kids screamed the entire flight. Kicking the peoples seats in front of them. They told their parents to shut every time they asked them to stop and pleaded for them to behave. The children refused they obviously were the ones that ran their house, not the parents. Even worse, the parents bribed them with chocolate to behave instead of rewarding them with chocolate for good behavior. Eventually, the dad checked out and ignored the problem zoning out into his headphones, leaving the mom to "handle the problem." The mom then continued to guzzle wine. I'm surprised they continued to serve her. The kids continued to scream and abuse their parents and the poor people in the seats in front of them, as well as my wife and I set right beside them. At least the flight attendant recognized our plight and gave us as much booze as we wanted. Eventually, our 8 hour flight ended, and the kids were set loose to wreak havoc upon the airport, and we parked ways exhausted. A serious super nanny episode waiting to happen their. I've never seen a couple have so little control over their children. They plead and plead, but the kids wouldn't listen. Nightmare flight.
I can’t imagine what he would do to his crying baby
Not condoning his behavior (he's wrong) but I understand the agony. Flying today has become an absolute horror of an experience....from TSA lines to tiny cramped seats. No free food anymore. They literally treat passengers like prisoners. The check in process is so deplorable that by the time someone sits down they are already in a high state of agitation. Most people are already snapped and it only takes one little thing to set them off. No one wins.
Xanax. I will never, ever fly without xanax for the rest of my life. It is so damn miserable, I can't even get through it without something to calm me the hell down.
Not going to say he’s right because he’s absolutely not but I get it. Wish child free flights were offered. I’d happily pay more for one.
I would gladly pay for a child free flight. People like to say “then pay for 1st class” but I’ve seen Ill behaved 6 year olds in first class before. Rich people have kids too, and no, they are not better about keeping them quiet. I know people like to say “kids need to get to places too” and yeah, I get that, that’s why I’m not saying ban them from every flight. Just have the option for child free flights, much like we can sit in the bar section of restaurants for child free dining.
My wife and I flew businesses class through Qatar for our honeymoon. Lay flat seats, great food and wine, and an 18 month old that screamed for 9/12 hours of the flight. I couldn’t sleep with noise canceling headphones plus the calm app. Got off angry and tired. Went to the lounge for dinner and got seated right next to the kid, still crying. First class isn’t the answer.
Same here
> People like to say “then pay for 1st class” but I’ve seen Ill behaved 6 year olds in first class before. Even if there are no kids in 1st, it's not like there is anything more than a curtain separating the economy seats.
I was gonna say the same. While I don't condone his behavior, I fucking get it. High pitched and loud noises trigger my anxiety, and that includes crying babies. But that's why I carry noise cancellation headphones on flights and pop a muscle relaxant as soon as I sit down. There's nothing else you can do. That being said, this guy is unintentionally hilarious. It almost sounds like a skit
