People on the airline remember what happened when a fellow passenger experienced terrible diarrhoea.
One unfortunate passenger on a Delta Airlines flight was forced to do a U-turn after experiencing a terrible case of the runs.
On September 1, the Airbus A350 was flying from Atlanta to Barcelona when all hell literally let loose, including the poor guy’s bowels. Look it over:
The man, whose identity is unknown, had tried to make it to the restroom stalls but had run out of time and had to do his business down the centre of the aisle of the craft.
If you’re reading this while drinking tea, I apologise.
“This is a biohazard issue,” the pilot said to air traffic control, recorded from LiveATC.com and shared on X, formerly Twitter.
“We’ve had a passenger who’s had diarrhoea all the way through the airplane, so they want us to come back to Atlanta.”

beyond a series of transfers involving both passengers and crew, Flight DL194 finally arrived in Barcelona at 5:10 p.m. the next day, eight hours beyond its scheduled arrival time, according to information from Flightradar24.
he airline has since issued a statement on the matter, explaining: “Delta Flight 194 from Atlanta to Barcelona returned to Atlanta following an onboard medical issue.”
“Our teams worked as quickly and safely as possible to thoroughly clean the airplane and get our customers to their final destination,” a Delta spokesperson said.
“We sincerely apologise to our customers for the delay and inconvenience to their travel plans.”
Unsurprisingly, footage of the awful incident making its way across social media depicting the cleanup aboard the aeroplane quickly became popular.
In the brief video, paper towels can be seen lining the aisle and attempting to remove the numerous dark sludge streaks.
What a beautiful image.
People who were unfortunate enough to be on the trip have now recounted just how it was around the time.
“Both my wife and I were on the flight,” wrote one Twitter user. “It was a mess.

“The pilots made the right decision to turn around. The ground crew ripped out the carpet and put new in. Considering the circumstances, the ground crew did a great job, along the attendants and the pilots.”
Another passenger who also drew the short straw said it was the worst smell imaginable.
“My partner was on that flight! It was pretty bad. It was dribbled down the aisle, smelled horrible,” they said.
“The vanilla scented disinfectant used on it only made it smell like vanilla s**t.
Well, it’s not like you can even crack a window open.

On TikTok, Garrett captions his post: “Ever curious where it goes when you’re on the aeroplane?”
He explains in the video that many people believe that when a plane’s toilet is emptied midflight, human fluids just “dump out” of the aircraft.
As Garrett explains, this is undoubtedly not the case: “When you’re on an aeroplane and you have to go, where does it go?
“Did you know that whenever you flush the toilet on the aircraft, it actually doesn’t dump out into the population down below?
“It goes through plumbing to the rear of the aircraft and the seal compartments where the ground crew at the destination will remove all that waste.
“On a 747 – on a long haul flight – toilets can be flushed over a thousand times, creating over 320 gallons of waste.”
He adds: “That’s a lot.”

The clip has been viewed a staggering 4.3 million times and thousands have taken to the comments to share their thoughts.
Shocked, one viewer responds: “Since I was a kid I used to think when over a sea the pilot flushes it out. Omg!”
“Yeah! I had to ask a flight attendant. Was really interesting,” another adds.
Tagging a friend, a third person says: “See, I told you they didn’t dump out.”
“I thought they dropped it in the ocean,” a fourth admits.
While another says: “I just haven’t thought about this like ever.”
Many others have taken to the comments to say they can’t believe people ever thought otherwise.
One TikToker questions: “Other actual people believe that it would get expelled from the aircraft to the population below? And if so, do these people vote?”
Another asks: “Wait… people actually think it dumps out below?
“So they think there’s poo falling out of the sky and it’s not the birds?”
“I still don’t get it that there are still people that believe aeroplanes just dump it,” a third viewer remarks.
The Reason You Should Never Wipe More Than 3 Times After Pooing
How many times do you wipe when going to the toilet?
Often when going to the toilet excessive wiping can be a problem. For people who struggle with this problem, a pelvic floor specialist is on hand to explain why going over three wipes is not advised.
In a quick TikTok video posted by BIEN Australia, a pelvic floor physiotherapist offers insight on how many wipes are ideal to use when using the lavatory.
The 57-second short also seeks to offer a way to lessen overzealous wiping.
When you wipe more than twice or three times, it is referred to as faecal smearing, the expert says in response to the typical worry and provides comfort.
‘Essentially, it occurs when too much faecal matter remains at the a*** entrance even after you have finished your bowel movement’ the expert explains.
The physical therapist proposes a way to address this problem and maybe reduce the amount of wipes needed.
She advises using a waterfall-like pattern of gradual pelvic floor muscle contractions.
Individuals can conduct four controlled squeezes towards the conclusion of their bowel movement by progressively increasing the squeeze from 20% to 50%, 80%, and then 100%.

This method seeks to close the anal sphincter, which will lessen the likelihood of residual stools on the a*** entry, which is frequently caused by a weak external sphincter.
@bien.aus Faecal smeaing – my last video on yhis blew up! If you are wiping more than three times try the following: – squeezing and relaxing the pelvic floor 5-10 times after a poo – eating more fruits and veg – drinking more water – avoiding constipation and haemorroids – seeing a pelvic floor physio if the above dont work for an assesment 🤸🏾♀️ #pelvicfloorphysio #ibs #chrones #pelvicfloorexercises ♬ original sound – BIEN Australia
The video clip also cites other elements that may lead to the need for repeated wiping, such as haemorrhoids or scar tissue around the a**.
She encourages obtaining expert medical counsel for additional examination in such situations if the indicated strategy does not prove successful.
Using these technique should help the efficiency of your bathroom visits and make things cleaner and easier!
