A Southwest Airlines passenger on board a flight to Orlando, Florida, was recorded screaming and swearing at the parents of a child that wouldn't stop crying.
The epic tantrum - thrown by the grown man, not the toddler - left other passengers in hysterics as he screamed about the baby's consistent crying for 45 minutes.
The ordeal unfolded when their flight was forced into a holding pattern around the area outside Palm Beach due to a bad weather front.
Clearly frustrated by the wailing infant, the man started his raucous rant about how he paid a ticket to have a comfortable flight, but those plans were derailed by the baby's screams.
It's unclear when the video was taken, but it was uploaded to TikTok just one day ago - and has already amassed 167,000 views.
The furious passenger was later seen inside the airport being escorted away by police, after refusing to disembark the aircraft following his row.

Could be a high school or college instructor.
Right. I get the frustration but going ballistic only makes things worse.
That clip could be used on TV for a condom advertisement.
“Why assume they weren’t even trying?”
Life experience.
I’ll give that fat ass something to cry about
Earplugs or booze. I pack two pair of earplugs for air travel in my carryon.
This guy is just a moron and drama queen. A public fool.
Yeah, I've traveled enough times with babies on board to figure out that they start screaming, painfully, after pressurization and take off. I feel for the little guys. I'm convinced it must hurt a great deal.
Crying babies are one thing. Not pleasant but to be expected. On a recent flight, there was a grown woman talking very loudly and laughing with the most annoying laugh you’ve ever heard. She was 5 rows in front of me. The only time she stopped being loud was when she went to use the restroom. It was a long 3+ hour flight, and of course, I didn’t have headphones with me for some reason. Never again.
Exactly....Thats why I always bring a laptop and headphones. If you can manage takeoff and landing then it’s going to be okay.
They definitely do. Giving them a bottle at takeoff helps with this.
Crap like this happens everyday. It is not significant. How in the hell is this news? Look at what the other hand is doing.
So we have a man cussing about a crying baby and creating more disruption than the baby. Yet more evidence that we live in a spoiled and soft society.
Oh the huge manatee!! Flying coach on Southwest. Whoda thought there would be an inconvenience. :/
I’ll always be pro life, even if a baby or child annoys me.
Instructive! Always a good reminder to all of us of how to behave in public!
Yep.
He PAID for public transportation.
If he was so concerned about comfort, he should have foregone the $129/roundtrip tickets and ponied up $25,000 for a private jet ride.
You said it!
Bingo. Plus they are tired.
That dude seems to not have outgrown being a crybaby.
He’s just another self hating white lefty!
