0:00.0

An entitled old jerk screams at a flight attendant, all because he didn't have a place to put his stupid bag.

0:05.3

Things got so bad that this guy almost started fighting other passengers.

0:09.1

But thankfully, this guy got humbled in one of the best ways I've ever seen in my life.

0:13.4

And truly, this guy absolutely deserved it.

0:15.8

Here's what happened.

0:16.7

Okay, so my wife, my baby, and myself were all returning home from a quick trip to visit parents

0:21.7

out of state. I board early to get the baby's car seat secured, and after that, I'm just chilling and

0:26.5

waiting as the rest of the passengers continue boarding. As announced, the flight is a full one,

0:31.0

so the seats are quickly filling up. Well, this old entitled jerk with a clearly disgruntled look on his

0:35.8

face comes storming down the aisle

0:37.5

to the back end of the plane. He then begins complaining to the flight attendant about how someone

0:41.8

supposedly took the overhead storage bin over his seat, and he cannot fit his bag there.

0:46.5

Now this flight attendant is a woman who's probably in her late 40s and early 50s. She then

0:50.9

kindly and respectfully tells him that this is a full flight, that overhead space will be limited, and is not guaranteed to be available right over your seat.

0:59.0

She then politely suggests that he looked for a different compartment to store his bag.

1:02.6

Well, this antagonist of our story did not like hearing that.

1:05.6

He did not like that one bit.

1:07.1

He then begins raising his voice and responds that he needs the spot over his seat and that it is the only way to make sure that his bag will not be stolen. But the flight attendant politely and calmly repeats her answer to him and ensures that his bag will be safe. Well, his face starts turning red with rage. He shouts at her, this is ridiculous. That's my spot. Haven't you tried boarding from the back to the

1:28.2

front so that everybody gets only the overhead space right over their seat? Around this time,

1:32.9

my wife and my baby arrive at our row, and they get a front row seat to this show from this point

1:37.3

on. The flight attendant replies by saying, actually, yes, we did try that years ago and it didn't

1:42.1

work for various reasons, so we stopped. I am asking you to please look for an open space for your bag and take your seat. Now, the old entitled jerk who was fuming at this point, shouts at her about how stupid that is, and how disrespectful she is being to him. He then continues on a long-winded shouting rant, and she tells him that she is trying to be as calm and respectful as she
