A viral video has captured a tense and chaotic scene aboard an Alaska Airlines flight, where an airhostess was seen punching a man during what appeared to be a violent medical episode. The incident occurred as the man allegedly attacked a female passenger, pulling her hair in a violent outburst.

NBC News’ Dana Griffin spoke with the woman involved in the altercation, who shared her perspective on the shocking episode. The video, which has since spread across social media, shows the flight attendant stepping in to restrain the man, using physical force to subdue him.

The woman who was targeted in the attack described the harrowing experience, recounting the fear and confusion as the man became increasingly aggressive. The episode raises important questions about how flight attendants and crew members are trained to handle medical emergencies and violent outbursts at high altitudes.

As the video continues to gain traction online, many viewers have expressed concern over the safety of passengers and the crew’s ability to handle such situations. It also highlights the potential dangers of medical episodes during flights, particularly when they lead to violent behavior.
