An unruly mom has been blasted online after video emerges of her allegedly refusing to let her fellow passengers off a plane that had already been delayed for three hours.
The dramatic moment unfolded on a Frontier Airlines flight that had just landed in Baltimore, Maryland, with passengers lined up in the aisle ready to disembark.
But while the front of the plane was able to exit with no problem, one woman decided she wasn't moving - for a pretty bizarre reason.
Footage shows her planted firmly in the middle of the aisle, blocking dozens of tired travelers from exiting the aircraft.

And according to witnesses, she insisted she wasn’t leaving until her daughter - seated toward the back of the plane - joined her at the front.
Of course, plane etiquette is that those closer to the exit disembark first - but clearly not everyone is clued up on this. And after the fasten seatbelt sign is turned off, those on the end of the aisle use the opportunity to stand up and stretch their legs, while getting their luggage out of the overhead cabin.
With all those bodies and suitcases in the way, there's not really any wriggle room.
Anyway, one tired passenger snapped at the lady: "What is wrong with you?
“I would hate to be your daughter and have to go home with you, no wonder she’s back there.”
The woman didn’t take kindly to this, firing back: "Be careful. Don’t say s*** to me."
Tensions escalated as passengers trapped behind her began yelling over one another.
The woman then turned to a flight attendant, saying: “They won’t let my daughter pass and I’m not getting off without her."
The crew member calmly suggested she step aside and wait for her daughter... which is a pretty reasonable solution - common sense, you could call it.
But the woman wasn’t having it, snapping back: "Why they can’t let her come pass?"
Other passengers quickly explained that her daughter was coming from the back, and letting her cut ahead would only hold everyone up even longer.
One woman called her out with a sarcastic: “You haven’t been on this plane long enough, lady?”
That’s when things got even more heated, as the woman replied: "Mind your motherf***ing business, b****!"
The tired passenger didn't back down, as she replied: "This is my business, I want to get off the plane!"
Eventually, the flight attendant convinced her to step into an empty row so people could pass.
With everyone squeezing past her, she yelled: "F*** y’all!"
