An angry buff man was kicked off a Southwest Airlines flight after he allegedly lost it over another man chatting with his wife, according to social media users.
The unidentified passenger was recently captured on video having a massive meltdown that resulted in him chucking food at another passenger and being escorted off the aircraft.
The man, who donned a gray Under Armour t-shirt, white baseball hat, beard, and tattoos on his arms, was seen in a video posted to TikTok getting up from his seat while a female airline employee stood over him.
But as he did so, the irate passenger had a heated conversation with an older man seated behind him, who was seen putting his hand out in an apparent attempt to keep the younger male away from him.
‘I’m just protecting myself from this man,’ the older gentleman said before the bad-tempered man cut him off and pointed his finger at him.
‘Nut job! You’re running your f***ing mouth motherf***er!,’ he shouted as the female staffer tried to keep the two men separated.
The troublesome passenger then gathered his belongings, including a pizza box and to-go bag filled with food, and headed toward the front of the plane as he shouted: ‘F*** you and your mother!’
He then appeared to realize he had forgotten his backpack and headed back to his seat, causing more of a stir.
An angry, unidentified male flyer was seen on video having a dramatic outburst on board a Southwest Airlines flight. According to social media users, he was upset over a man talking to his wife
The first clip showed the man bickering with an older gentleman seated behind him as a female employee stepped in to try to split them up
As he did so, another male passenger heckled at the man: ‘Dollar for a slice!,’ another TikTok clip showed.
The comment instantly ticked off the problem flyer, who quickly turned and looked at the man and said: ‘Put your f***ing phone down you d****bag,’ as people laughed.
‘Are you like 80 and you’re still f***ing filming people?,’ the man added before staring directly at the camera, seemingly waiting for the other man to put his phone away.
‘Don’t make me throw my food at you to make a f***ing point,’ the angry man said before hurling his to-go container at the other.
Other passengers were heard gasping in disbelief as a male Southwest Airlines employee joined in to try and help deescalate the situation.
‘I’m gonna need all you guys to stop,’ the male employee said.
The crazed man then continued, telling the guy he threw the food at: ‘Put your f***ing phone down motherf***er!’
Another angle of the dramatic moment that was posted on Facebook showed the passenger being booted off the plane while others clapped.

Would YOU feel safe sitting near a passenger acting like this?
The moment quickly grew physical as the crazed flyer was seen hurling his to-go food at another passenger before being booted off the flight
Just before he made it to the front, the man turned around and said: ‘It’s yours now? Ok, I’ll make sure to meet you at the gate b****!
‘I’ll meet you at the gate,’ he added before the clip ended.
When contacted by the Daily Mail Southwest Airlines declined to comment.
It is unclear where the incident took place of what happened when the rowdy flyer got off the plane or if police were involved.
It is also unclear if the man and his wife were seated next to each other or not, but the budget airline is known for allowing passengers to sit in any available seat after boarding.
That rule will soon come to an end on January 27, Southwest recently announced.
