I'm glad it was handled well, it could have been a tragedy(an unstable person in the cockpit can do a lot of damage, I imagine).

Was anyone, filming? I can't wait to see it as another example of "shapeshifting" on my "For you" tab in Twitter.

What does that mean?

I assume the "they aren't real" lady (video in the link) but there's been so many crazy/high passenger incidents post pandemic I can't be sure:

'They Live' vibes... she's scared out of her wits. It isn't funny to see people derail like that.

“They Live” as in the movie from 30ish years ago?

Yes, her response is as if she's seen something like the creatures from that movie. I wonder what really happened and why she didn't calm down.

For instance, it could be a hallucination, I've had some pretty weird hallucinations myself in spite of never doing drugs (auditory), they were totally believable and yet impossible and I'm rational enough to realize what is a hallucination and what isn't but if it is visual then it may be a lot harder to get a grip on yourself.

Thanks: i totally get it now. Btw same here, never have done any drugs, but have had lucid dreams if that’s similar to what you describe.

There's a trend is social media where people are posting videos of people freaking out in planes claiming that it's a shapeshifting event. I don't know how much of this is trolling and how much of it is people actually believe in this.
