A TikTok user, @lilwessel, revealed the moment that a passenger was asked to step on a baggage scale to be weighed at an airport.
“The whole airport trying to mind their own business as a woman is asked to step on a BAGGAGE SCALE because she claimed she was 130lbs.,” a caption read that accompanied a recording.
“It’s a tiny plane, so they needed our weight to take off for safety reasons,” she added.
Once viewing the video, some TikTok users felt that the incident was insulting.
On the other hand, others believed that the person recording was just as wrong.
“Y’all need to stop taking pics of strangers and posting it online. It’s weird and disrespectful,” someone wrote.
Other people also noted that it is important to ensure proper weight management on small planes for safety measures.
The discussion of size and weight has been in reports lately as one woman expressed her disappointment with small aisles on planes. She even recorded herself have problems with getting down the aisle. She has called it discrimination against larger travelers.
