The other passenger, a white man dressed in a blue hoodie, decided to intervene and escort the other man off the plane

The Tampa International Airport Police Department did not immediately respond to DailyMail.com’s request for comment.

Video of the altercation, which was posted to X (formally known as Twitter) in three parts, showed the moments leading up to the man’s exit from the plane.

It starts with the man, wearing a white and blue button-down shirt, standing in the middle of the aisle as fellow passengers look on.

“I will confuse you universally and publicly,” he says before turning to a male flight attendant.

“Get off the plane,” a woman says in the background.

Female passengers begin to argue whether the man brought a bag on board or not, as he continues to argue with the airline employee.

He then moves to a window seat and sits down as a female flight attendant says, “Do you have a bag or anything else you want to grab before you get off?”

The irate passenger responds, “Um, you’re all attacking me two individuals against one?”

The male flight attendant then speaks to another passenger sitting behind him, while the angry man says he “didn’t hit anyone.”

“Yes, yes, yes, is it okay to raise my voice at a woman? I’ll look into it with you,” he says.

The flight attendant then looks at him again and says, “What?”

As surprised passengers look on, the passenger continues walking and says, “You’re human.”

The video of the incident has since gone viral online and was posted in three parts. (photo: the moment the other passenger decided to control the unruly man)

“And that’s because I’m sitting and lower than you?”

He’s like, “You wanna be a badass, bruh?”

He then turns to a woman on board and says, “I’m moving, I’m moving, and you know what?”

‘You work together. Do you see that most of the people here are white? Yeah, so you were like, “ahhhhh.”

As irritated passengers engage him in conversation as the plane sits on the runway, the man continues, saying, “I’m trying to get to my home country and you all have made it harder for me to get to my home country!”

A woman then answers him and says, “We don’t know where you’re going!”

“I’m telling you, I’m telling you,” he says, pointing his finger at other passengers.

He then says, “No, no, no, no,” and pats the head of the man behind him, calling him the “man with the white hair.”

In the third part of the video, the man is still blurting out as a white male passenger, wearing a dark blue hoodie and baseball cap, approaches the unruly airman and tries to take control of the situation.

“Let me see you in the front,” the passenger says to the man in blue.

“Sir, sir,” says a female flight attendant.

“Come forward, because,” the passenger in the hat says to the loud man as he sends him out of his seat.

“Let me see the big man,” he says as he steps out of the chair and into the aisle with the man in blue.

As the belligerent man steps outside, he appears to place his face menacingly right in front of the man in blue, who says, “Yes, if you put your hands down….”

“Hey, I didn’t get in your face, you told me to leave,” he replies.

The man in blue, approaching him as an unruly passenger, appears to gesture with his hand in his face to tell the disruptive man to back up, while the angry passenger waves a piece of paper and tells the flight attendant that he has a ticket .

The belligerent passenger then turns back around after the man in blue taps him on the back and says, “Let’s go!”

“Yes, yes, touch me, you fool,” the disruptive man says to the fellow airman in the aisle as he straightens his arms.

It is unclear whether anyone was arrested or injured in the incident. Tampa International Airport police did not immediately respond to DailyMail.com’s request for comment about the altercation

The female employee then pulls out a walkie-talkie and says “311” as the two men begin pushing each other in the middle of the aisle.

As they stroll around, they bump into other passengers in the aisle, while others pull out their phones and film the chaotic scene.

The flight attendant then calls for help again while the man in the hat takes the irate passenger and puts him in a headlock.

“You get it, right? Do you understand? Put your hands down and don’t touch anyone,” the passenger in blue shouts at him as his face turns bright red.

From the corner of the frame, a woman wearing a gray Ron Jon Surf Shop shirt and a backwards orange hat intervenes.

She puts her hand on the man who has the other in a chokehold and says, “I’m a police officer.”

“Me too,” he answers.

“I’m here, look, look, I’m here,” she says, trying to de-escalate the situation.

The man then asks the now silent passenger, “Are you going to walk or are you going to be nice?”

He then shouts and tells the man to run. He lets go of his neck before grabbing him again and pushing him forward.

With the other man’s hand over his mouth, the unruly passenger says, “I’m schizophrenic.”

“Me too, walking,” says the passenger holding him.

He is then escorted off the plane by the man while a group of passengers follow him.

Another man with a tattoo sleeve on his arms and glasses is seen squeezing him by the back of his neck as the other pushes forward.

“I’ve never seen this before,” says the female flight attendant.

It is unclear whether anyone was arrested or injured in the incident.
