A passenger named Daksh Sethi shared a frightening video of his seat shaking during an IndiGo flight. He described the sensation as “a mini heart attack.”

Daksh Sethi went viral after sharing a scary video on his Instagram. The footage shows his airplane seat shaking during an IndiGo flight from Delhi to Lucknow.

According to the Hindustan Times, the aircraft had a maintenance issue, as there was no turbulence at the time. IndiGo’s seats had a locking mechanism failure.

“The first time it happened, it was a terrifying feeling. I’ve never experienced anything like it,” Daksh wrote in the video caption.

The images, shared on March 18, show Daksh and two other passengers beside him sliding backward. He mentioned that the airline moved them once they were informed about the issue.

“Apparently, this was an anomaly, a very rare case, as these seats have a locking mechanism. We sincerely apologize for your experience on board,” the company said.
