When turbulence struck the aircraft, Mia was captured on camera screaming loudly and crying.

===Initial backlash===
The video drew intense scrutiny and criticism from viewers who accused Mia of staging or exaggerating her panic attack for attention and views. Critics labeled it a "performative panic attack," pointing out several aspects they found suspicious:<ref name=":5" />

*She appeared to glance at the camera before screaming<ref name=":5" />
*The camera angle remained perfect throughout the incident.<ref name=":7" />
*She maintained eye contact with the camera during her distress<ref name=":7" />
*She was able to set up recording equipment despite claiming severe flight anxiety<ref name=":5" />
*She transitioned quickly from panic to calmly rating food and drinks<ref name=":7" />

Many commenters argued that a genuine panic attack would prevent someone from filming themselves, speaking coherently, or maintaining camera awareness.<ref name=":4" /><ref>Bhatta, Kiran.

Accessed January 20, 2026.</ref> Some viewers noted that panic attacks often leave people unable to function, with symptoms including a blank stare, mumbling, or complete silence rather than screaming.<ref name=":7" />

One common criticism was captured in the comment: "Imagine upgrading to business class to avoid screaming kids, but you encounter screaming adults instead."<ref name=":0" /> Another commenter stated: "This is exactly what someone who has never had a panic attack thinks a panic attack looks like."<ref name=":0" />

===Viral parody videos===
The backlash evolved into a broader digital trend, with numerous TikTok users creating parody videos that collectively garnered over 2 million views.<ref name=":2" /> These creators used Mia's original audio of her screaming and filmed themselves in mundane or obviously safe situations to mock what they perceived as an absurd overreaction.<ref name=":8" />

Popular parody formats included:<ref name=":8" />

Accessed 20 January 2026.</ref>
*Videos showing people in completely safe environments using her scream audio
*Satirical recreations with perfect lighting setups, mocking the "impossibility" of filming during a genuine panic attack

One reaction video sarcastically noted: "So serious that she edited, rewatched, and voiced over this," questioning the authenticity of someone who would go through the editing process after a traumatic experience.<ref name=":7" />

==The truth behind her fear==

===SQ321 survival and spinal fracture===
On January 15, 2026, Mia posted a follow-up video addressing the backlash and revealing the traumatic origin of her flight anxiety.<ref name=":5" /><ref name=":9">Theresa Lily Thomas. "[https://www.medboundtimes.com/daily-pulse/infleuencer-in-flight-panic-attack-tiktok-debate Influencer's In-Flight Panic Attack Video Goes Viral]" ''Medbound Times,'' 16 January, 2026. Accessed 20 January 2026.</ref> She disclosed that she was a passenger on Singapore Airlines Flight SQ321, which encountered catastrophic turbulence on May 21, 2024, while flying from London Heathrow to Singapore.[7]<ref name=":6" /> The SQ321 incident resulted in the death of a 73-year-old British passenger, Geoff Kitchen, who suffered a heart attack, and injured more than 104 passengers and crew members.<ref name=":1" /><ref name=":2" /> The Boeing 777-300 experienced extreme gravitational forces, with the aircraft dropping approximately 54 meters in less than five seconds.<ref name=":2" /><ref name=":5" />

Mia was in the aircraft lavatory when the severe turbulence struck. The sudden drop caused her to be thrown violently, resulting in a fractured spine.<ref name=":6" /><ref name=":10">Chelvan, Vanessa Paige, Azril Annuar, and Jonathan Pearlman. “[https://www.straitstimes.com/singapore/transport/sq321-incident-one-year-on-passengers-recall-how-extreme-turbulence-upended-their-lives SQ321 incident: One year on, passengers recall how extreme turbulence upended their lives]” ''The Straits Times,'' 21 May, 2025. Accessed 20 January 2026.</ref> She supported her account by sharing X-ray images of her spine and photographs of herself in the hospital recovering from the injury.<ref name=":9" /><ref name=":10" />

In her explanation video, Mia stated: "In my head, I couldn't even register it as turbulence, I thought the plane was really going down."<ref name=":5" /> She explained that the traumatic experience left her with severe PTSD and made her "so paranoid" about the sensation of a plane dipping during turbulence.<ref name=":5" />

===Response to filming criticism===
Addressing criticism about filming herself during a panic attack, Mia explained: "For those who are saying it's impossible to have a meltdown while filming, it took me two years, babe."<ref name=":1" /> She clarified that it had been 20 months since the SQ321 incident (May 2024 to January 2026), and this was her attempt to fly again after her recovery.<ref name=":2" />

Mia also acknowledged that she had edited the video and initially posted it because she thought it was funny, but admitted she may have cropped too much content out, making it appear staged to viewers.<ref name=":1" /> She expressed regret that her experience had been invalidated by strangers online and asked viewers not to be "so quick to judge," emphasizing that fear of flying is a real issue and that fear manifests differently for different people.<ref name=":3" /><ref name=":5" />

===Netizens’ reaction after the revelation===
[[File:Mia defenders.jpg|thumb|''Some comments on TikTok defending Mia. Photo from [https://www.tiktok.com/@_youmia/video/7595388756409011476 TikTok video].'']]

====Continued skepticism====
Despite Mia's explanation and medical evidence, some comments continued to express disbelief. Critics argued that someone with genuine PTSD would not fly at all or would not film themselves if they truly had severe flight anxiety.<ref name=":1" /><ref name=":5" /> One commenter stated that she also had flight anxiety but does not "scream her lungs out" like Mia did, implying that Mia's reaction was still exaggerated.<ref name=":5" />

====Support and defense====
However, many commenters rallied to Mia's defense after learning about her traumatic experience. Supporters emphasized the lack of empathy displayed by critics and highlighted the hypocrisy of calling for mental health awareness while simultaneously attacking someone sharing their genuine struggle.<ref name=":1" />

Some defenders called out others for being too "cruel" and "mean," emphasizing that mental health struggles and trauma responses vary significantly between individuals.<ref name=":5" />

===Response from airline===
The incident also raised questions about airline industry responsibility in addressing the psychological aftermath of major turbulence incidents. While Singapore Airlines reportedly provided compensation of $10,000 to $25,000 for physical injuries from the SQ321 incident, critics noted there appeared to be no long-term mental health support services for survivors.<ref name=":2" />
