- The woman screamed that she was being kidnapped and was wrestling with stewardesses
- Another passenger intervened in the argument and claimed that the woman was possessed
- The riot was captured in a video posted on the social media site Reddit
A Frontier Airlines passenger was filmed having a severe collapse during a flight – while a nearby preacher implored others to pray before breaking into song.
The chaos was captured in a video uploaded to social media site Reddit.
It begins after drama erupted aboard Flight 1161 on November 16 when a woman sobbed and cursed at airline staff as they dragged her down the aisle.
“Stop pulling on my arm!” She barks and lets out a blood-curdling scream.
A passenger wearing a gray cap enters the frame and follows the employees as they lead the screaming woman to the front of the plane.
A woman on a Frontier Airlines flight screamed that she was being kidnapped as employees tried to subdue her. A woman wearing a gray hat intervened in the argument and tried to mediate and talk to the distraught passenger. A woman in sunglasses rose from her seat and threatened to fight her “straight Texas style”
She raises a hand and begins to speak to the woman as she thrashes and throws her head back. Miraculously, the woman stops panicking and looks at her.
The video then shows an apparent confrontation between a man wearing a white baseball cap and an employee wearing a collared shirt.
Other passengers scream. Some hold up their phones, capturing the chaos unfolding in front of them.
“Let him get out too!” Let him get out too!’ shouts another passenger.
Realizing they are distracted, the woman begins to climb over the seats, lifting her legs and falling to the side.
Other passengers get up and run into the aisle to escape as the woman climbs forward. She is eventually dragged back into the hallway before collapsing on a seat.
As a woman’s voice begins to scream in the back of the plane, the camera pans to show a woman wearing sunglasses.
“Straight Texas style! I’m going to drive you crazy!’ she screams.
A man wearing a white baseball cap appeared to confront one of the employees, who was wearing a gray collared shirt. The freakout was captured in a video uploaded to social media site Reddit. The frightened woman began climbing over the seats, causing other passengers to scramble into the aisle to escape. The woman in the hat began pacing up and down the aisle, claiming the passenger was “possessed.”
The first woman panics again and screams, ‘Stop blocking me!’ I’ve been fucking kidnapped!’ before throwing a punch at one of the employees.
The voice of a flight attendant comes over the loudspeaker system.
“Ladies and gentlemen, I want everyone to take your seats,” she says forcefully.
‘Please. Only people who should be upstairs are people working with the passenger.’ The woman has now made it to the seats on the opposite side of the plane.
‘Stop laughing at me! To stop!’ She screams before throwing her arms up and declaring, “Hands in the air!”
She puts her hands on the overhead bins and continues to cry, demanding that the staff let her go.
The woman in the gray hat begins pacing up and down the hallway and announces that the collapse is evidence of a “real devil who wants to kill every single one of you, including your family members.”
She continues to scream and wag her finger, “That’s not her!” She’s possessed! She needs help!
“And I’m sorry to sound like that, but I’m telling you now, Jesus Christ is the way to truth in life and there is no one who will come to God the Father without Jesus Christ.”
It is unclear whether this woman knows the passenger who suffered the collapse.
Meanwhile, another employee in a brown sweater appears to comfort the first woman and rub her shoulders as they stand at the front of the plane.
“Who doesn’t have a relationship with Jesus Christ?” asks the woman in the hat as people murmur. “If you all don’t have a relationship with Jesus Christ, I encourage you to find one.”
“We’re trying to leave,” a passenger says, sounding annoyed.
She stood at the front of the plane and began singing gospel music as Frontier employees tried to get the panicked woman to her feet. An employee in a brown sweater and a headset hugged the passenger and eventually rocked her back and forth like a baby, a police officer came on board. He stepped aside and allowed the woman to return to her seat
The video is cut again. The woman with the hat is now standing at the front of the plane.
She begins singing gospel music as flight attendants try to subdue the panicked passenger, who screams, “You’re fighting me! Stop fighting me!” and falls to the ground.
The employee in the brown sweater hugs her, continues to rub her back and rocks her like a baby.
The woman with the sunglasses got up again.
“Nobody plays with you, girl!” Are you crazy? “Come on, I’m going crazy like you,” she screams.
The police come on board. An officer stands in the hallway and talks to employees.
“We have to get rid of them,” one passenger remarks with a laugh.
But the officer steps aside and allows the woman – who is flushed and wiping tears from her eyes – to return to her seat.
The flight left Houston at 1:39 p.m. and was scheduled to land in Denver but was ultimately diverted to Dallas, flight records show.
Speaking exclusively to Dailymail.com, a woman whose son was on the flight explained: “They had to stop in Dallas to release the crazy lady, the preacher and the man in the white baseball cap.”
She added that “the crazy lady hit and attacked the flight attendant who blocked her more than once.”
Frontier Airlines could not immediately be reached for comment.
The scene bore a striking resemblance to the viral video of marketing executive Tiffany Gomas, who suffered a similar collapse aboard an American Airlines flight in July.
Gomas stormed to the front of the plane and told fellow passengers that she was getting off because the plane was not safe, before accusing a fellow passenger of being “not real.”
