American Airlines passengers were bewildered when a bathroom leak started flooding their plane mid-flight.
The incident occurred on Dec. 7 during a flight from Dallas, Texas, to Minneapolis, Minnesota, sending dirty water streaming down the aisle.
“It was utter disbelief and a little panic realizing they can’t shut off the water,” Hilary Stewart Blazevic, a passenger on the plane, told Storyful, according to the New York Post.
She added that her fellow passengers cleared their bags from under the seats and lifted up their feet to avoid the “disgusting” stream.
