“You triggered me”
In the video, the passenger is heard saying, “You triggered me” before the attendant responds by emphasising decorum and the need for mutual respect on board. As tensions escalate, the crew signals ground staff to assist, and security personnel escort the woman off the plane.
It is not known yet what the actual action was that triggered the passenger, but the video seems to have garnered a lot of attention.
One of the comments under the video says criticizing the passenger's behavior, "'You triggered me' really means, I take no responsibility for my own actions, I can’t think for myself and can’t control my emotions. I can’t cope with the world around me, and use less than 1% of my brain.”
Someone else commented about the use of foul language in front of children and said, “Anyone who cannot control themselves to the point that they are throwing around f-bombs and other poor language around children is a menace to society…often there are drugs at play, and that may be the backstory here.”
