A Qantas passenger from LA walked to the bathroom at 30,000 feet. Then woke up on the floor with no memory: ‘So scary!!! ’

Unfavorable experiences during flights are more common than people like to admit. Typical issues include turbulence, long lines at the luggage drop, an annoying co-passenger, or service problems. However, some experiences are very unique and specific to certain individuals. For TikTok user @bellaaseymour, her situation was quite rare.

In a video uploaded to TikTok on March 8, 2026, Bella Seymour shared her story about the time she completely passed out on a Qantas Airways flight from L.A. to Brisbane. She explained that her partner lives with her in Brisbane, and they were returning from L.A. after visiting his parents there. She then described her experience of passing out during the long flight, saying she had been sleeping for six hours before feeling a strong urge to pee. When she went to the bathroom, it was busy, so she turned around to return to her seat. Suddenly, her vision blurred, and she collapsed onto the ground. In the video, she vaguely recalls that a crew member asked if she was okay, and the next thing she remembers is being on the ground.
