A flight attendant had to be restrained by passengers and crew on an American Airlines flight after she started ranting that the plane was going to crash over the PA system.

According to news.com.au, she told passengers on the flight from Dallas to Chicago: "We are not taking off. We're having technical difficulties. We are heading back to the gate."

First class travellers helped cabin crew subdue the woman after she started screaming things like, "I am not responsible for crashing this plane", talking about 9/11, and rambling about American Airlines' bankruptcy

According to the Daily Mail, it took five people to restrain the flight attendant, and one passenger described how she had to be "thrown into the first row of seats and held down", and that she sounded "demonic".

Passenger Greg Lozano (pictured) said: "We were pretty frightened. I was glad we weren't in the air."

The Dallas Observer reported that policemen removed the woman "kicking and screaming" from the plane after the incident


......apparently she forgot to take her medication

Poor woman, she obviously had a nervous breakdown and is in need of professional help. How sad though that the first thing most passengers thought to do was get out their mobiles and start filming it.

Oh lord, I shouldn't be reading this when I have to fly in a fortnight! It's bad enough worrying about the plane crashing without having to worry about the flight attendants being on medication in the first place, never minding forgetting to take any!
