People have been left divided after a passenger shared a recording of a baby screaming through his 29-hour flight.

The sound of a baby crying isn't exactly the most comforting sound to hear anyway, let alone if you can hear it while confined in a small, enclosed metal carrier hovering in the sky. Oh, and especially if you're stuck with the baby in said carrier for a whopping 29 hours.

One TikToker has spoken out about what it was like when he took a trip from New Zealand to Berlin, Germany with a screaming baby onboard his flight. Prepare to yank your headphones out of your ears in pain:

Henry Beasley - a musician in a band called Balu Brigada - took to his band's TikTok account to share a video of himself on his long-haul flight, noting he was lucky enough to be accompanied on the journey by a child who was seated a few rows back.

While many choose to try and get some shut-eye on a 29-hour flight, the baby clearly had other ideas and had clearly spotted Beasley and thought it may try and audition for his band, letting rip.

In a TikTok video posted on his band's account, he said: "Rate my 29 hour flight to Berlin. The kid's got some lungs. Great projection."

At this stage, the musician's eyes were twitching as the baby's scream continued to ring out across the aircraft, so constant, Beasley even tried to make light fun of it by rating the screams and recorded a 'nice long one'.

He concluded with his eyes barely open, saying: "Stellar performance, incredible stamina. 10/10."

And people have been quick to flood to the post to weigh in on the baby's impressive vocal display.

One TikTok user said: "Honestly there should be kid free flights and kid flights."

A second added: "The rage I get just by watching this," as another said: "I’ve stopped counting the reasons why I don’t want kids but this one is definitely on the list."

And a fourth said: "They shouldn't let kids on flights longer then four hours."

However, others stuck up for the screaming child and its owner.

The idea of introducing child free flights is a controversial one.

A user said: "It’s called noise canceling headphones. Get some."

"Put your headphones on and be greatful that it isn’t you," another added.

And a third commented: "Why didn’t anyone try to help the mom I understand it’s so bad but maybe Mom should have also tried something different but please people help this."

Child-free flights have been discussed for many years now and have taken a particular center stage on TikTok, with content creators posting their nightmare flights.

So, what do you think?
