It was like a scene from one of the "Final Destination" movies. But luckily, the plane arrived safely at its destination after a scary incident was caught on camera.

By now pretty much everyone has probably seen the footage of a woman freaking out on an American Airlines flight screaming about a passenger who's "not real" and demanding to get off the plane.

While some people have said she must have been drunk or on drugs, or perhaps having a mental health crisis, tons and tons of TikTokers are coming to her defense to say they believe her.

The sudden and bizarre meltdown happened shortly after boarding an American Airline flight in Dallas-Fort Worth International Airport. As the flight was about to depart, she gets up from her seat and begins to scream down the aisle, "I'm telling you I'm getting the f*** off and there's a reason why I'm getting the f*** off and everyone can either believe it or they can not believe it."

She continued her rant as she got further down the aisle as she turned to look toward the back of the plane.

"But I am telling you right now that mother****, that mother****er back there is not real," she said. "And you can sit on this plane and you can f***ing die with them or not. I'm not going to."

The original clip has been stitched and shared multiple times on TikTok and many are taking to the comment sections to share their thoughts on what's really going on.

Believe it or not, most people are standing up for the lady. TikToker @2Pac.thadon shared the full video of the incident and many people left their thoughts in the comments.

"You can tell in her voice she’s scared to death and wants to get away from whatever it is ?," one person wrote.

Another added, "She felt some kind of evil force coming from that person. She saw nothing she felt it. True story!!!"

Many are sharing a concern for the lady's well-being, saying, "Someone find this woman and make sure she's safe. ?"

And others pointed out that she was willing to just get off the flight without her stuff. "She definitely got scared of something. She was willing to leave her belongings. ?"

It's not completely clear who or what she was talking about. Some videos talk about an African American man, and others claim it's a man in a black hoodie. It was reported that once she was off the plane, the flight was delayed three or four hours and the airline crew was swapped out. It's also been reported that she didn't get arrested and got back through security after she deplaned.

While Many Believe Her, There Is Another Side To This Story

Comedian Carrot Top was on that flight and shared his story on Instagram.

"I literally thought at first it was a flight attendant yelling at a passenger and looked up and she was for real losing her mind… I applaud everyone that was on the flight w me that night. Everyone kept calm and let the professionals do what they do. Hats off to everyone @americanair ????❤️?," he wrote in the caption.

Some of his social media followers left comments about the incident at the airline.

"Idk she seemed prrreettyyy sure she saw what she saw," one person rebuttled.

Another follower thought maybe she was having a "mental health crisis." "Please take a breath and then count to ten before the next time that you are inconvenienced by someone having a mental health crisis. She obviously needed help, not slurs. There is nothing comedic about this woman."

Do you believe she saw something paranormal? Do you have another side of this incident to share? If so, email me, let's talk!
