It started with a video posted on Tik Tok in July 2023, which immediately spread to Twitter and other media sites going viral all over. A woman was booted off an American Airlines flight on July 2, 2023 — after demanding they stop the plane because there was someone on the plane who “was not real” and warning everyone on the plane they were going to die if they stayed on; she was getting off.

It happened amidst of a time of enormous uncertainty — with COVID and vaccines and masks — making plane travel especially full of finger pointing — and regular mass shootings and havoc in Europe.
And what is funny about the video is how she points back into the plane saying “that motherfucker is not real” — and everyone turns around to see who she’s talking about.
This resulted in endless twitter threads with analysis and some comments that were fall-off-chair funny.
Tiffany Gomas
We found out sometime later the woman was a marketing exec named Tiffany Gomas.
She apologized for the incident: “Distressed or not, I should have been, I should have been in control of my emotions, and that was not the case. My use of profanity was completely unnecessary, and I want to apologize to everyone on that plane, especially those that had children aboard.”
“We all have our bad moments,” continued Gomez. “Um, some are far worse than others, and mine happened to be caught on camera for the whole world to see multiple times.”
“Sorry, y’all. I hope that I can use this experience and do a little good in the world, and that is what I intend to do,” she added. “I hope that you guys can accept my apology and I can begin to move on with my life.”
Gomas Now Famous
The incident does not appear to have hurt Tiffany Gomez’s career — in fact it has made her famous — as of this writing she has over 370K followers on her Twitter account. She is funny; and because of that has turned the whole thing around to her favor.
Gomas Surfaces Again
Recently, an extremely funny Twitter account named Greg, brought the subject up again:
