This video shows the chaotic moments after a man opened a plane's emergency exit, climbed onto the wing and ran across the tarmac.
The incident happened on Sunday evening (26/11) at Louisiana's Louis Armstrong New Orleans International Airport.
Footage shows passengers evacuating a flight before cutting to shots of a man being detained on the floor.
NBC News said the Southwest Airlines passenger was taken to hospital for evaluation and there are no criminal charges.
It is believed he may have been suffering from a "mental health emergency".
The airline said that after a brief delay, the flight eventually departed to Atlanta and continued to its final destination of Baltimore.
“We commend our flight and ground crews for their swift action and apologize to our customers for their inconvenience,” the airline told NBC.
The TikTok creator who shared the video, who goes by @zedweb08, said it was a "very traumatic event".
As the passengers filed back off the plane to safety, he could be heard in the footage saying "I never dreamed I would be going through nothing like this."
Addressing the camera, he later added: "That scared the s*** out of me."
