“29-hour” trip with crying baby opens debate
An Internet user identified as Henry Beasley narrated in a video on TikTok how his journey was when traveling on a 29-hour flight with a child who screamed and screamed throughout the trip.
In his recording, the tiktoker mentioned that he unfortunately sat near the heartbroken baby. So in the recording of him, he showed how he saw his eyes twitching at various points as he tried to downplay the baby’s incessant screeching.

“The rage that gives me just seeing this,” said one user.
