Man Goes Off On Woman For Stealing His Phone Charger On A Plane – But A Lot Of People Are On Her Side

Whose side are you on here? We've seen plenty of confrontations, meltdowns, and outbursts on planes over the past couple years. And honestly, as annoying as flying is these days, I kinda get it. By the time you get through security, wait on the flight, deal with the mess of boarding, and finally get to your seat and get your luggage stored away, it's easy to be annoyed. And that's assuming there aren't any delays... But apparently it was during one of those dreaded delays that an altercation occurred on a JetBlue flight that has the internet divided. The whole thing apparently started when passengers were forced to get off the plane after having already boarded. The man who posted the video claims that he left his charger plugged in at his seat, and when they were able to reboard, it was gone and his fellow passengers pointed out who had taken it. The video then shows the man confronting the girl, who seems pretty nonchalant about the whole situation. As she walks by, he demands to know if she took his charger: "Yeah, I have it I think." When he asks why she took it, she responds that she took it "because we got off the flight" and nobody else was on the plane. She tells him that she'll give him the charger back, and eventually digs it out of her bag (as his wife seems embarrassed and begs him to sit down).

The man in the video posted a follow-up video and says that passengers were given the "option" to deplane during the delay, and that some people were in a bigger hurry to get off than others. He says that a fellow passenger then approached him in the terminal to tell him that the woman had unplugged his charger and taken it as she got off the flight. He also questions why she didn't turn the charger into the flight attendant, and why she had an attitude when he confronted her about the stolen charger - and that flight attendants even gave him the option to press charges and have her removed from the flight, which he says he declined to keep from delaying the flight even longer.

Well it seemed that most folks were on his side after the original video and his explanation - but after the girl responded herself and presented her side of the story, folks are sticking up for her. The girl, named Vanessa, posted a video to her own TikTok explaining what she says happened. Vanessa claims that the charger wasn't plugged in, and that passengers were told to remove everything from the fight. She says she picked the charger up off the floor and didn't unplug it, but then tried to give it to the flight attendant who wouldn't take it. She says that when she got back on the plane, she was stressed because her cat had just thrown up, and admits that she "acted imperfectly" and got an attitude when confronted. Vanessa also claims that the man is lying when he says he was given the option to press charges, and that flight attendants actually threatened to remove HIM from the flight if he didn't calm down.

@vanessa.clover When a video from over a year ago taken out of context goes viral…. While I should have responded better, please consider there are always two sides to every story! 🫶🏻 @RcRelated @RcRelated ♬ original sound - vanessa.clover

Now, in the grand scheme of things this is a pretty minor disagreement compared to some of the videos we see on flights these days. But it's one that has the internet divided over who's actually in the wrong here. What do you think?
