TikToker Documents Harrowing '29-Hour Flight' Next To Kid Who Screamed The Entire Time

TikToker Documents Harrowing '29-Hour Flight' Next To Kid Who Screamed The Entire Time

TikToker Balu Brigada endured a lengthy flight to Berlin next to a kid with a strong set of lungs.

Anyone who chooses to fly as one of their travel options likely has a list of conditions they'd prefer to not encounter while flying.

This most likely includes layovers, delays and cancelations, problematic flying neighbors, and of course, loud children.


For people who have flown in the past, some would describe loud children or crying babies on their flight as the greatest form of torture. Others, while they would agree that the sound is disruptive, would be more empathetic to the family involved, who would likely be scrambling to comfort their child.

TikToker Balu Brigada made it clear he was not interested in loud children after he posted a video, featuring clips from his recent "29-hour flight." In each of those clips, a baby seated nearby was crying at a high volume and was seemingly inconsolable.

Brigada captioned the video:

"Hey baby, how was your flight?"

And he was ready to answer that question by placing a layover text at the beginning of his video, which read:

"Rate my 29-hour flight to Berlin."

Clearly, he would have given this flight fewer than zero stars if that were an option.

Hey babe, how was your flight?

The video has already garnered more than 2.8 million likes, 36 thousand comments, and 35 thousand shares from TikTok alone.

In the video, Brigada commented on the volume of the baby's crying:

"The kid's got some lungs."
"Kettle's boiled."

In the background of each clip, the baby's crying could be heard, and in response, Brigada's left eye kept twitching, increasing in speed as the baby's volume increased.

Some agreed with the TikToker and said they were furious on his behalf.

Others thought this was hard for everyone and sympathized with the parents and the baby.

This is one of those tough situations where it's easy to forget that there's a person with feelings and needs on both sides of this situation. On one side were parents who were probably stressed from trying to calm their baby, who was clearly going through something, and on the other side was a very perplexed passenger.
