>>I watched the video and something’s wrong. First, people always have to check a stroller when boarding a plane. Why she thought she could demand to keep the stroller makes no sense to me. Second, why is she so upset about not having the stroller? It’s not like she’s going to go on a long walk. I have absolutely no reason to say this, other than the degree to which she’s upset, but I wonder if she’s a mule and there are drugs stashed in the stroller. (She’s traveling to South America...Venezuela I think.)<<
Yes I saw it too and noted the same. I have no idea why the woman was crying and I am AMAZED the macho-man clearly drunk passenger wasn’t tossed off the plane. Physically threatening an FA is usually automatic removal, frequently by cops.
The whole incident is truly strange.
Look at her forehead for the answer to that.
She may have been told she could put it in overhead or the flight attendant took it from her at the door to be stored elsewhere on the plane. I've had that happen with carry-ons. But he hit her in the forehead with the stroller! She had twin babies.
I'd say the story is pretty accurate since AA has already taken responsibility and admitted the attendant was wrong.

Multiple witnesses said the bald attendant yanked the stroller violently away, striking the mom and nearly hitting her baby. You think that might have something to do with it?
Let me ask this. Does the bald attendant seem like a cop to you?
I’m sorry, but I don’t mean to attack you, but you should really read more about this before you go off half-cocked or is it half-cucked these days.
This video starts near the END of the episode. It’s not representative of the facts.
How many drunks have you known? (yourself not included). This passenger IN NO WAY appears drunk!
“Why she thought she could demand to keep the stroller makes no sense to me.”
Who said she “DEMANDED” to keep the stroller? I read that she was told by an airline employee that she could take the stroller on the plane if there was room in the overhead compartment for it.
She had TWIN toddlers, a lot to carry any sort of distance.
” I wonder if she’s a mule and there are drugs stashed in the stroller”
Maybe she’s a hooker and has the stroller filled with condoms?
The airline employee physically yanked the stroller from her and hit her in the head with it barely missing one of the babies. That is why she is upset and crying.
More reading less bloviating will make you LOOK more intelligent.
I had a completely different take on this. My first thought was if he were my family member I would be so incredibly proud of him for standing up for this woman. Regardless of what she did, it's clear this man thinks she or the child was hit. I don't know what really happened, but he is incensed by something that happened and has the grit to stand up about it.
You have no idea why the mother is crying? You must have missed the part of the witness accounts that said the male stewardess hit her in the forehead with the stroller. Take a look at the huge red mark on her head.
Now you have an idea as to why she was crying.
