‘Plane to the stage’: On a flight to Las Vegas, flight attendant had to physically restrain a passenger. Then she became the hook on an EDM track

EDM has, in the past, taken iconic lines from pop culture or life and turned out bangers, but what happens when it features you? Sophie, the flight attendant, just had to answer this question when DJ Bou found himself impressed by her during a British Airways flight to Las Vegas. The Manchester-based DJ had just taken his seat when a passenger began causing disturbance, leading to a tense standoff that eventually moved from the cabin to the club.

In the video that has over 3.6 million views on Instagram and TikTok, Bou shared a clip filmed by his tour manager in another section of the plane. Bou claimed, “All I could hear was a load of noise coming from the back from some drunken idiot.” When the clip of the fight begins, Sophie is standing between two much bigger men. She is physically holding them apart, bracing against the aggressor, firmly and loudly commanding, “Stay seated! Stay seated! Stay seated!”
