Two airline passengers caused enough of a scene to get police called to the plane as they screamed at each other in a bizarre argument.
The Frontier Airlines flight from Atlanta to Miami had just landed when a young man in a black hoodie got into heated verbal exchanges with two people.
One of them, and vicious, foul-mouthed argument with a young woman, was caught on camera as it descended into farce.
Much of the back and forth was unintelligible but the man could be heard calling the woman a prostitute and demanding ‘show me a band or better’ a dozen times.
‘Shut your broke ass up,’ he told the woman early in the argument, to which she shot back, ‘You’re broke too, you’re on the same f**king flight’.

Jazmine, who filmed the drama as it unfolded behind her, explained in a follow-up video that the argument was sparked by the annoying passenger habit of getting up as soon as the plane lands.
The man in the black hoodie had a seat at the back of the plane and moved forward, getting into it with a man in the brown shirt in front of him.
‘So they’re going back and forth because black hoodie is trying to scooch his way to the front and brown shirt is like, “no, you’re going to wait just like everybody else”,’ Jazmine explained.
Black hoodie accused brown shirt guy of being a ‘cokehead’ going through withdrawal and other offensive things.
‘I didn’t get a chance to record that part but, boy, y’all should have seen it. Brown shirt stood his ground,’ Jazmine said.
After that it was quiet for a minute, then the woman in the video made a comment to the black hoodie guy that Jazmine couldn’t make out ‘but I heard the attitude’.
‘So he’s like, “what?” and she’s like “you heard me”,’ Jazmine explained.
Through the whole incident, the woman was sitting in a middle seat and talking over a man in the aisle, who kept his head down a looked like he wanted the floor to swallow him up.

Jazmine said the woman was telling that man he’d ‘been told the whole plane ride and at the airport in Miami’, but it wasn’t clear what about.
On the other side of the aisle was the woman’s sister, saying ‘hey don’t talk to my sister like that you dumb…’
About then is when Jazmine got out of her seat and started recording, not wanting to miss a second fight in the space of a few minutes.
‘Shut your broke ass up,’ was the first intelligible line on the video, to which the woman fired back, ‘You’re broke too, you’re on the same f**king flight’.
The man then demanded ‘show me a band or better’ over and over.
A ‘band’ is slang for a wad of cash, usually $1,000, held together with a rubber band, and the phrase is used to demand someone proves they have money.
A flight attendant on the intercom cut in asking them, ”Can you guys wait until you’re off the plane and in the terminal, please’, but they didn’t listen.
‘B***h you’re a prostitute… you’re a streetwalker, what the f**k are you talking about, shut your broke ass up,’ the man told the woman.
A flight attendant walked over and tried to intervene, but he told her ‘I don’t care, she’s talking to me’.
‘Because you’re f**king with everyone else on this airplane, we’re all f**king tired of you, shut the f**k up, you’re rude as f**k,’ the woman replied.
He responded: ‘I don’t have time for you, scram-ass hoe’.
The woman continued to chew him out, but what she said, and his responses, were unintelligible on the video.
‘Can we all get along on this flight, please,’ came another announcement from the crew, but a woman yelled back, ‘That’s not gonna happen.’
The man began repeating ‘show me a band or better’ again, while the woman criticized him for being on a Frontier flight.
She could be heard saying he was asking if she had $1,000 even though he couldn’t afford a more comfortable Delta Airlines flight, or pay $45 for a better seat.
The man responded by calling her a streetwalker again.
Flight attendants announced the police were on their way to the plane, and other passengers moaned they would now be delayed.
Jazmine said no one was arrested, but the man was escorted off the plane by officers and everyone started clapping.
‘Frontier has no TVs but I got a show, that was exactly what I needed after sitting in uncomfortable chairs for two hours,’ she said.
