A huge brawl kicked off on an easyJet flight to Greece a few months ago, but a video of the intense incident has recently resurfaced online.
The viral video shows a man lunging at the staff onboard, jumping and down like a child, and even getting punched by airport workers.
It's recently been posted on TikTok, with the caption: "to hilarious not to post [sic]".
The man in the video can be seen threatening people and asking people to shut up, with a different angle also being posted on social media with sound.

He's also heard using homophobic slurs against some of the staff on top of all of the outrageous behaviour.
While other travellers on the flight have remixed the video with viral sounds to make it that bit more humorous, the incident was taken very seriously at the time by easyJet.
The airline dealt with the passenger accordingly, and have now explained what happened with the mystery man.
An easyJet spokesperson said to LADbible: “This flight on 20 August last year from Manchester to Chania was attended by police before departure due to a passenger behaving disruptively during boarding. Police attended the aircraft and the customer was not allowed to travel.
“EasyJet's cabin crew are trained to assess all situations and act quickly to ensure that the safety of the flight is not compromised at any time. We will not tolerate disruptive or aggressive behaviour towards our crew or other passengers.
“The safety and wellbeing of our passengers, crew and ground agents is always easyJet's priority.”
So, Greater Manchester Police have dealt with the situation, but why it's only been posted and done the rounds now is a wonder.
The original video showing the man losing his head has got over 4.6 million views, with other angles and versions also among the millions.
Other perspectives reveal that he was also shoving passengers out of the way on the jet bridge while they were waiting to board, to get to the airport worker that swung a punch at him.
Users couldn't believe the actions of the man in question, with one writing: "The toddler tantrum jump I’m sobbing," and another pointing out: "Are people not scared of no fly list anymore?"
A third user commented: "The bloke in the high viz was ready to scrap, he's at the end of his shift and just wants get home."
A different user wrote: "Pls why is nobody talking about the way the security guard swung at him," with a number of laughing emojis, with a fifth putting: "Please I need to know what was happening, like why is he having a full on toddler tantrum?"
