One passenger filmed their wild experience cruising down a Delta Air Lines plane's emergency slide, and it looked really fun.
"Soooo this happened the other day on my flight with delta," a person with the username johniquec wrote in a TikTok post on August 3.
The passenger's post included a location tag at the Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport, suggesting that was where the incident took place.
"Come forward. Come this way," a flight attendant's voice could be heard as passengers proceeded toward the emergency slide in the video. "Come this way. Leave everything. Jump and slide."
"Woah," johniquec could be heard giggling as she went down the slide. Staff on the ground were there to help them up at the bottom of the slide.
In the second half of the video, johniquec said that the plane had gotten a flat tire because it had "landed so hard." Emergency personnel could be seen spraying jets of water at the area surrounding the plane's tire.
A representative for Delta Air Lines confirmed that the video was filmed on Delta Air Lines flight 1437. Flight 1437 had to deploy its emergency slides for passengers to deplane after bursting a tire while landing in Atlanta, Georgia, on August 2.
"Initial reports indicate that one of the aircraft's tires blew upon landing and components of the landing gear were hot," said the Delta representative. "Customers evacuated via emergency slides and were moved to the terminal via bus."
"We apologize to each for this experience – nothing is more important than the safety of our customers and crew," the representative added.
Some were surprised that johniquec could remain so cheerful during an emergency.
"I feel as though the presence of excessive laughter genuinely concerns me," said another person on TikTok.
But others found johniquec's experience amusing and wished they could have ridden the emergency slide as well.
"Lowkey always wanted to do that just never wanted the trauma behind having to use it, ya know?" one person said in a comment on TikTok.

A TikToker has gone viral for coming to the defense of a Delta Air Lines passenger who made headlines for having explosive diarrhea on a flight.
There’s having diarrhea on an airplane. There’s having diarrhea in an airplane. Then there is having diarrhea “all the way through” an airplane. It was this last situation that forced Delta Air Lines Flight 194 to do an unexpected U-turn—or perhaps a eww-turn—this past Friday.
A shift towards experiential journeys, growing demand for premium travel options – Indians approach to travel is evolving, according to Mukul Sukhani, senior vice president of business development at Mastercard.
A gorgeous little sprawl straddling the River Nore in Ireland’s southeast, Kilkenny is a place you can walk in a day, fall in love with over a weekend and still find things to discover after a week. Its imposing Anglo-Norman castle and 13th-century cathedral bookend the Medieval Mile, a historic strip cutting through the city. But it’s between the old set pieces that the magic happens — the record store hidden down an alley; the talkative host of a pub squished into an Elizabethan townhouse; the stumbled-upon galleries, craft studios and vintage shops. Late summer and early autumn are good times to visit, with Culture Night (22 September) followed swiftly by Kilkenny Animated, and the Savour Kilkenny food festival a month later.
A transatlantic Delta flight last Friday was forced to turn around after a passenger suffered a "medical issue," which audio from the flight deck shows appears to be related to a passenger suffering diarrhea "all the way through" the aircraft.

For adventurous summer hikers, spending time outside, where you can enjoy longer days of sunshine, fresh air, and a vibrant culture within outdoor communities, is a top priority. Autumn, however, is a brilliant period to get out on the trails. Exploring during the shoulder seasons, when kids are back in school and working professionals are returning to the grind, opens up all of the popular nature-y locales so that you can revel in the peace and solitude of wide open spaces and nature.
Florida is preparing for the arrival of Idalia on Wednesday, which has strengthened into a hurricane and is expected to rapidly intensify into a Category 3 storm by the time it makes landfall.
