On social media, many viewers were stunned after a viral video captured a moment showing a passenger filming non-stop baby screams during a 29-hour flight.
On TikTok, a video of a passenger filming non-stop baby screams during a 29-hour flight from New Zealand to Germany gained attention.
A 29-hour flight from New Zealand to Germany turned into an unbearable journey for one passenger.
Henry Beasley, a musician, filmed the relentless cries of a baby throughout the long-haul flight.
A passenger captured the non-stop screams during a flight.
On TikTok, a user who goes by @balubrigada shared a video of this experience, recounting his terrible journey from New Zealand to Germany.
During the 11,000-mile trip, Beasley recorded the baby’s continuous crying, which seemed to escalate as the hours went on.
In the video, he humorously captured his own growing frustration.
Initially, he posted a clip with the caption: “Rate my 29-hour flight to Berlin”, followed by another: “Strong start”, accompanied by the baby’s cries.

As the flight continued, Beasley’s tone shifted. He sarcastically remarked:
“The kid’s got some lungs. Great projection.”.
In the footage, he later complained, comparing the crying to the sound of a kettle boiling.
Additionally, the video also showed him chewing gum and even recording specific cries, rating them: “Nice long one here, 100.”
The video quickly went viral and sparked debate on social media
@balubrigada Hey babe, how was your flight?
Beasley’s video sparked mixed reactions on social media. While some sympathized with the parents, others expressed their frustration.
However, some users were less forgiving.
One person said: Honestly there should be kid free flights and kid flights.
A second wrote: I feel bad for the people next to these children. Also the parents.
While a third commented: And people have the audacity to ask me why I don’t want kids
Another added: the way my anger issues would get me kicked out of a flying plane…
Someone else said: the way my anger issues would get me kicked out of a flying plane…
The video also reignited debates about child-free flights. Some users suggested airlines should offer separate flights for passengers without children.
It remains unclear on which leg of the flight Beasley endured the crying or if it persisted throughout the entire 29 hours. However, this experience highlights the growing demand for flights without children.
There is a rising call for child-free flights, with some willing to pay extra for peace and quiet. In a 2012 TripAdvisor poll, one-third of Britons said they would pay more for a flight without children onboard.
