    Upon being put under police’s physical restraint, the woman exclaimed: “That’s fine. I’ve been there before.”

    Other passengers appeared to be completely shocked by the event, while other passengers with phones filming the chaotic scene could be seen in King Jon’s video.

    At one point, the agitated passenger began shouting: “Let it go,” before adding “Can I do that with freedom? All I care about is freedom.”

    She also claimed: “These **** are hurting my elbow! He’s hurting my wrist. You’re hurting me, Sheriff.”

    As of Thursday (April 4), the location and what police department was involved is unclear. However, Bored Panda has contacted Spirit Airlines for comment.

    The TikToker posted three other clips of the incident, which continued to showcase the woman displaying disarrayed behavior.

    The woman was seen shouting and being extremely agitated on the plane, and she was eventually arrested

    In the second video, the disconcerted passenger was seen shouting about her nephew, her ankle hurting, and an incomprehensible rant about Arizona. 

    She further berated a flight attendant, saying, “This fat b***h is a b***h.” After being filmed being handcuffed, the woman told officers: “I don’t want to go to jail, fatso.”

    Many viewers were stunned by the incident, as a TikTok user commented: “Not gonna lie… this makes me so sad honestly.”

    Another person wrote: “This is an SNL skit.”

    A separate individual chimed in: “This is why I pay an extra $200 for Delta. Every time.”

    King Jon claimed all the passengers had to deplane so law enforcement could arrest her, Dexerto reported.

    The TikToker’s footage of the passenger continued to spark stunned reactions on social media

    CAN WE PLEASE STOP RECORDING OTHER PEOPLE HAVING MENTAL BREAKDOWNS AND THEN EXPLOITING THEIR MOMENT FOR VIEWS? I’m so f*****g sick of this. People are so evil they will do anything for attention, even at the expense of someone else’s pain. It’s disgusting and you’re a monster for doing it. F**k you if you do that and I hope one day someone shows you the same kindness when you’re having a mental breakdown.

    I know. As a clinical psychologist this is abhorrent. The woman has a breakdown and then gets to have a second one when people exhibit this to all the world for "content" and a few snickers.

    Oh, for God's sake. This woman had a mental breakdown, some moronic TikTokkers filmed it, and you are adding to her humiliation by posting it here? Have some compassion for your fellow human beings instead of posting sad things like this. Shame on you.

    No need to attack, you are right but there is a point before people realise that where you can inform and guide. Compassion is for everyone.

    Despicable to film this and put it online. If this woman is recovered from whatever she is going through, this shìt will still be online to haunt her.
