![CHILE vs. BRASIL [1-2] | RESUMEN | ELIMINATORIAS SUDAMERICANAS | FECHA 9](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/5ObJt_71AYc/mqdefault.jpg)
What's sad is everyone knows that if he wasn't who he is, that flight attendant would have gotten away with this and nothing would have happened. The guy would have went to jail, had to pay a bond, and hire a lawyer. All that money spent and time that you can never get back. That would have been the outcome for anyone else. But because he plays for the NFL that's why we are hearing about this. That's the real travesty about all this. Cowards like that flight attendant are doing things like this everyday.
The real travesty is that this kind of thing happens every day. It's good he has the platform to shine a light on it.
Well said.
@roots1458 it doesn't happen every day
United Airlines is famous for this kind of despicable behavior. Remember in 2017 when that Asian doctor was dragged off the plane and was beaten bloody by security officers?
It’s terrible. And this guy even though he apologizes just plain doesn’t care about what kind of issue he creates by being this way. And how much he affects people around him and being a flight attendant prob is pretty self focused. They tend to be chosen for that role bc they are self care people.
Terrell is a total class act. I went to high school with his brother Reggie. Both are great guys.
He is very intelligent as well! It will work out in his favor! What a shame and a disgrace!
Tell ol' Reg that i say hi.
I waited on him in a retail store about 12 years ago. He was a nice, polite and soft spoken person. I thought he was a very nice man and was a pleasure to help.
Used to work club security at a venue where Terrell Davis would hang out and have a good time.
This is the loudest you will ever hear him.
He's a soft-spoken,complete gentleman,even when partying.
What gentlemen's club was it where you worked?
@@DavidClark-vu3dwsuperbowl halftime
Yeah, and who cares if somebody touches the flight attendant? Why do they deserve respect? Everybody on the plane should be able to touch her, and whenever they want, not just when they need ice, smh
@@tennised2283Wow... This is a dumb comment.
@@tennised2283 so have you NEVER tapped someone on their shoulder/ arm to get their attention? Ridiculous! This guy is one of the most calmest persons ever! ftr: the attendant was a male.
I grew up across the street from this guy on Latimer street. There is no way in the world this dude was anything other than totally respectful
Which guy? The flight attendant? C'mon man.
@@PhotographyInFlight4183We don't know who the flight attendant was . You obviously aren't too bright
@@kennydee9346 these people are never the bright kind.
I’m pretty sure OJ’s neighbor said that about him in the beginning too. Just Kidding!!!!!
@@bobbyw1074OJ was found not guilty in the court of law in the American justice system! Go figure
Terrell, there is no way you can ever feel demoralized or humiliated, you are admired and loved and honored by millions of us! You are a great man, we love and respect you!!!!
Yes there is and he clearly said it. Don’t ignore this man! Thst was definitely a moment of humiliation. Now he needs to make United & that flight attendant feel it in court
@@Klgray7373 What I am trying to say is this man is respected and has so much inner fortitude. I am saying something like nothing can take away your dignity--I am not ignoring him. I am saying how great he is, and how much we respect him, how much we are on his side.
@@robertmadison1205 I know you intent wasn’t that but pay attention to your word choices. When someone tells you had THEY FEEL don’t be dismissive. It’s invalidating or attempting to invalidate like oh it wasn’t that bad. Believe people when they speak over their own emotions. Perhaps your image & perception didn’t change of him but that has zero to do with how HE SAID HE FELT. Don’t be on such a high horse to miss the lesson. The lesson is listen to how THAT person FEELS
Absolutely Absolutely
So let me get this straight because he's famous and you love him as the athlete pro NFL legend he can't fill embarrass or demoralize if that's what he's saying he felt. Why are you gaslighting how he feels.
I wouldn't fly United Airlines after this incident. There is absolutely no excuse to have an Airline Employee set up a passenger to be arrested by law enforcement, for NOTHING. OMG!!! The humiliation, his children being forced to watch their dad being marched off in handcuffs, for NOTHING, other than an A-Hole Flight Attendant with a bad attitude. Disgusting.
EGGZACKLY - He was with his FAMILY. Not his "Side piece" or a "Mistress" this was his wife and kids. They saw a super black man living and traveling better than the job he's doing having to be a server to the very people he DOESN'T want to see taking flights and decided to weaponized his whiteness.
Do you really think everyone flight attendant at UA is like this? And you're going to "cut off your nose to spite your face" as it were by not flying on their airline. There are horrible attendants like this on every airline, but they are few and far between. Are you going to boycott them too?
Bc some people like to shine a light on themselves even if it hurts others. They want attention and especially negative attention.
Same airline that assaulted a doctor because he didn't want to leave his seat due to overbooking.
Also, why in the world would the law enforcement put hand cuffs on him without speaking to him first or wait til he got off the plane to get his side of the story. He obviously wasn't aggressive or causing anykind of trouble in that moment. His poor family. The airline owes him big time. I know that's not what he wants, but they do!
Mr. Davis is blessed that he had a witness. Continued success.
I'm saying!! 🙏🏾
How could the passenger sitting in front of him see this?
@@Lizwindsor The tone of the flight attendant could’ve drawn the attention of the other passenger, causing him/her to look behind. It’s not uncommon for people around you to observe their surroundings.
@Lizwindsor, they were maybe turned around trying to get their attention too.
Because the jerk working the cart.. walked pass Mr Davis. Mr Davis tapped his lower arm to asked for ice!! The lier said mr Davis punched him to get the ice!! 😅 so yes the guy in front saw the truth.. i hope Mr Davis who has the money.. will sue both airline and lier for millions... this happens allot liers like trump.😊
Thank you Mr Davis for speaking about your experience.
It should be illegal to arrest someone without telling them WHY they're being arrested. Ridiculous!
It actually is but they don’t mind breaking the laws as we all can see
@@yakeishaallen5343- No, it isn't illegal. It's typically against the policy of American law enforcement agencies, but it isn't illegal. There are just legal limits on how long officers can incarcerate you without formal charges. But even if they violate that, they're very unlikely to be criminally charged (but you can sue the government).
Also, officers can completely change their stated basis for arrest, after the fact. They can detain and arrest you without a valid basis, and then analyze bodycam footage and find what could've been a valid basis but was not at all a factor in their behavior at the time. And officers can arrest you for any unlawful activity, including simple traffic violations. It doesn't have to be a crime or a serious traffic infraction. All that and more is the result of judges deferring to law enforcement "in the interests of public safety." We allow people who aren't like us and who don't have to deal with the issues of regular people to control our governments, and then we wonder why our governments serve us so poorly.
Very illegal to be arrested without told charges and Miranda. But not illegal to detain...call lawyer
OR interviewing witnesses particularly the other passengers.
They do get told WHY from the videos that i have seen when a passenger shows there behinds but of course there going to make him a exception . Dam shame I hope he sues them , this is way out of hand . I will never fly with them .
its good when celebrities speak up about situations like this.
Happens to us everyday people also, thanks for speaking out
@ytrbro1041...👎🏿..Too Late..The never speak up at the height of their CAREER ..earning M💰etc etc etc There's a saying...Stone @the bottom of the river never know that the sun shines above"...
It’s a Everyday life now just got to adopt to it glad he spoke out for people like us hope it cause changes
My wife had a horrible experience with United’s flight attendants too! The flight attendant was rude and tried to humiliate her. I’m glad to see TD speaking up.
I was a flight attendant and I’m telling you it’s very common for a passenger to tap us needing to get our attention. Never once was, I touched inappropriately…
However, this particular flight attendant had a very different agenda, and maybe recognized Terrell and took advantage wanting to financially gain of the situation. so I hope that Terrel decides to press charges. There were enough witnesses, and it’s not good enough that the flight attendant was removed from duty while further investigation. he should be Fired✅Sue United and sue that pathetic Flight Attendant. Sorry, an apology isn’t enough‼️
Also sue the LEOs because they did NOT tell him WHY he was under arrest. What crime did he commit?!
🙄
I'm a retired flight attendant that would happen all the time shoulders, arms . You're correct. And probably knew who he was . But now he's loosing his job. And the union won't be able to help a fool born everyday
write good for you I have been
Maybe she’s a Raiders fan
As someone who works in the legal profession, this angers me. I went to law school. I am not an attorney. Terrell now has a case for defamation and false imprisonment, among other things. So sorry this happened to this family.
is it only Terrell because he's famous or would everyone that has experienced this have a case against the airlines? Because I have witnessed this myself with a mom on a flight that only raised her voice to a flight attendant! It was shocking to see and United and other airlines need to retrain these flight attendants so they are not so easily offended!
What about the flight attendant? I feel as though he should be arrested and have have charges filed on him for falsely accusing Mr. Davis of assault.
@@autumncheung145 they should sue
Taxpayers will foot the bill
we are with / united airlines is in full recovery!!
Terrell Davis has always been a class act. For him and his family to have to endure this is shameful. Hope he sues.
Thanks to GOOD MORNING AMERICA for getting this story first hand ... I'm sure this helps them feel a lot better to be heard and supported
I’m sorry, isn’t GMA an anti-Trump, liberal leftist channel? How could they be providing accurate stories? Oh, thats right, they’re actually a channel that supports human rights and justice. I want the entire black community and others to remember this come Election Day, the Republican Party is NOT your friend. You want more of this type of treatment? Or less? Up to you.
I fly twice a month for the last 2yrs for work. United is now my last resort. Thanks for going public with this. ✊🏾🙏🏾
It’s not the airline! This could have happened on any flight!
@gregoryharlston0602 great point Greg. I stand on what I said until they publicly put out a firm statement showing that they're going to right this wrong though. After that, I'll consider United as an equal airline when making reservations. Thanks for the comment. You are correct. 🙏🏾
lol you really showed them a thing or two!
All the airlines have their issues. United is decent. Delta is too. I usually fly Southwest though.
Me too
Thank you TERRELL. IM SO SORRY THIS HAPPENED TO YOUR FAMILY. WE KNOW YOUR REPUTATION AS A KIND AND CLASSY PERSON. THANKS FOR RAISING THIS ISSUE. I FREQUENTLY FLY THIS AIRLINE . UNITED GETS A LOT OF FEEDBACK FROM ME ABOUT THEIR RUDE AND INCONSISTENT SERVICE. I HOPE YOUR FAMILY WILL RECOVER FROM THIS TRAUMA.
Thank you, Terrell and your beautiful wife for speaking up. This kind of stuff happens all of the time and has happened to me as well. It hives those who can't be heard a voice when someone of your caliber and exposure speaks up. Thank you very much!
United needs to be held accountable this is shameful‼️‼️‼️😡😡😡
Oh they will be this gonna cost them a pretty penny $$$$$.
The FA, purser, and the flight Captain need to be held accountable. They should be in jail.
Is the flight attendant trans?
Yess Sue
United are the ones who beat the crap out of that Asian doctor, right? Had to pay millions to him. They just don’t learn.
I am so glad he is speaking out. We as a society have to stand united against wrong doing.
Such a shame. Hearing him speak about his children brought tears to my eyes. Thank God he had a witness.
Anyone who has ever watched the “A Football Life” episode knows Terrell Davis is the epitome of a class act in the NFL.
🎯💯
Yes I immediately thought about that A football life episode. He seems like a good dude. On a flight w his family
An entire nation of people loved Bill Cosby, Jimmy Saville, OJ Simpson, Jared the Subway guy...until they didn't. This is always a bad argument, because we can't even know the true characters of neighbors, or even the people who live in our own homes. Plenty of people in most people's lives think they are great, or at least decent.
Facts
I only see one side of the story here. Regardless, he shouldn’t be touching strangers. No one likes being touched by someone they don’t know, no matter how light the “tap.”
In addition to suing United, PLEASE take legal action against that employee for personal damages and any and everything else you can legally lodge. Let him work for you for the next 20 years! Sick and tired of learning of these airlines and their flight attendants treating people of color in this heinous manner. To you and your family, I am so very sorry for what you all suffered. So pleased that you are not suffering in silence. I applaud you in your efforts!👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
I’m in the aviation industry and I’m so sorry for happened to you. I hope you get justice Sir!
Somebody should check on Dr Dao and see how HE's doing these days..
I honestly don’t know I’m not a traveler, are there security cameras on planes so officials can see the flight attendant was not struck? It’s terrible this gentleman was shamed & embarrassed the way he was.
If this wasn't a HOF athlete/celebrity... United would have stood by their staffer
Yup! 💯
True
Not necessarily, because there were witnesses.
I believe Dr.Dao received $10 million after he was dragged off the plane with a broken nose, broken teeth, and a concussion. This won't bode well for UAL.
Exactly ....you should not get away with something because your an NFL legend ....but the guy was innocent and had to deal with a real DIVA Flight attendant who was having a bad day...
How many times has this happened to people who don’t have a platform? This lovely couple didn’t deserve this and will deal with the effects for a long time.
This is shocking. May your family recover from this atrocious experience, we are with you. From South Africa.
They are giving these flight attendants too much power. This is absurd!
Awful
I'm sure they fired the guy . If they haven't , they will soon like it or not
agreed
We're suffering from a lack of decorum. As a country we have given up on showcasing our best selves. It would do us all better if we would step back and evaluate our own lives in private and ask ourselves tough questions.
@@kennydee9346 He was fired by United Airlines.
Glad T.D. & his wife spoke out us regularly people go through this daily
Legend. Pillar of the Denver community. Good father figure. Good on you to call the bad service out. We pay $1000s on flights for horrible service.
Law enforcement was just as guilty of a wrongful act as the flight attendant
THIS!!!
True. This is false imprisonment under color of legal process. Why this Flight Attendant not being arrested for filing a false report. That is a crime. Tired of Law enforcement getting a pass.
That's not fair. Law Enforcement didn't know. They arrested him on the basis of what the flight attendant said. It was the flight attendant's fault
@@BlueStaRadianceOh please. They have no due diligence to conduct an investigation? We all know what will happen, they will investigate themselves and find they did nothing wrong.
@@BlueStaRadiance they could have checked out his story & asked anyone who was sitting near him, why didn’t they do that? Anyone can say anything they want, should police assume anyone who accuses someone is telling the truth & thereby violating the rights of an innocent person just because someone has accused them?
💔sad United Airlines is still allowing this egregious behavior. My Son is 28 yrs old now and when he was 9 months old my husband and I took him on a United flight to LA California and as we approached the boarding agent to hand our boarding pass over, i reached into my purse to retrieve the pass and another United employee snatched my Son out of my arms in an extremely hostile manor and yelled just hurry up and get the pass already!!! I am African American- she was African American. They know that they can treat other Blacks any kind of way and get away with it. I of course took my baby back and demanded she never do this again. She made us stand to the side. Didn’t allow us to board, then told us we were kicked off of the flight because we were being difficult. They have gotten away with this for far too long. I’m glad he is speaking up because no one cared when I reported the behavior 28 years ago.
When these blacks get into positions they act out of character
@@denisecampbell6191 💯💯
I am very sorry that happened to you!❤
@@denisecampbell6191 "These"?! Which black folks do you approve being in these positions?
@@denisecampbell6191 I notice that when little people whatever their color get a position with a little power it gets to their heads. Little Napoleon complex.
Flight attendants are given way TO MUCH power to determine who should be arrested.
Many of them are KAREN'S
I agree. Ridiculous
True, this was a Ken. Just ridiculous. How do you get an innocent black man arrested because you’re in a bad mood.
@ms.t3039
Exactly! 😡
Totally agree 💯
There needs to be cameras on these flights.
Never, they see it as an invasion of privacy
They should have to wear cameras like police do.
Its no different than putting cameras in the hotel hallways. Its for safety and it is 100% necessary on a plane to protect both passengers and attendants@vibranthang13
I agree 💯
Agreed
This is so unfair. My 12 year old son and I were kicked off a delta flight and humiliated. These flight attendants are so unprofessional and rude. A lady and I were issued the same seat number on our boarding passes on a flight from Atlanta to PVR Mexico. I was shocked as this had never happened before. Because I complained about this, my son and I were escorted off the flight. We had to go and purchase new tickets to PVR and ended up spending the night at Houston airport. Delta never acknowledged their error and did not apologize for the pain and suffering they put us through. Such a shame
They won't reach out to you unless you take some action. You should've sued them which would get them to the table for a face to face conversation
I have been treated like this on flights by attendants. Automatically rude when they see you. It is disgusting. He has a voice, us everyday minorities do not. We are considered being too sensitive.
We all have
lets not forget this flight attendant is just a person without the ability to shine a light on anything. At this point it is just as likely his kids fault. Maybe he drank to much. Lets not jump to conclusions. Just because one person is big and famous.
@@stoggy4839with the amount of phones available if something significant actually occurred someone somewhere would have recorded it
I was thinking the same thing.
He was drunk
Flying is becoming more and more of a nightmare
Exactly..not just with incidents like this…but also all near collisions,wheels falling off.doors flying open..and a big cover up..the whistleblowers are speaking up..
Guess you wasn’t alive through the 60’s and 90’s
It is a nightmare, years ago I thought exciting to fly, NOW I dread it to the max.
flying is in gangster mode!! they rude ans aso . be rude back or yes dont touch them and make sure others are watching!! they are air gangter especially UA
💯
Met Terrell when I was in the states a few years ago Andi can state with 100 percent certainty that he would never have done anything like what he was arrested for. He was the most respectful and sensible NFL player I ever interviewed
United Airlines is having a bad year, tires falling off airplanes, flaps deterioting, and now Tyrell Davis cleanest athlete in NFL history
Yep. Fly Delta next time.
I’m a retired air marshal. I’ve had to arrest a person for a similar overreaction of a flight attendant. The captain also bears responsibility. They way too often take the word of a flight attendant that a passenger is abusive towards them without any questioning. They can order an arrest if Marshal’s are on board. If not, then it happens upon landing. I hated that. Most flight attendants are great but a handful are very sensitive. Airlines need better recurring training with FA’s, and Captains should step out and briefly investigate before ordering an arrest
I dont think this male Karen was sensitive. He is dangerous and uses his privilege as a weapon to harm others.
Do not touch people end of story
@@lachlanfraser3147 If a service person is that averse to being touched they need to find another career.
@lachlanfraser3147 it's clear this man was trying to get his attention. I've had people who got my attention by touching my shoulders or hand these people was only trying to help. Don't work around people if you don't want anyone to get your attention. He's clearly in the wrong field and hospitality is not it.
@@lachlanfraser3147really? I fly regularly and always sit in the aisle. Do you know how many times in my lifetime flight attendants butts have hit my arm? Or their legs kicked my leg or stepped on my foot? Or the cart banged my elbow? Or a passenger has done the same? Or a bag hit my face? It’s part of flying. But according to you, let’s just call it assault every time? And ok, let’s say those were not purposeful and accidental, u know how many times flight attendants tapped me on my shoulder to wake me up? Or ask for my drink? Or to serve me a meal? OK, let’s have all of them arrested. I don’t even know why I’m replying to U troll bot.
Thank you and your Beautiful family for speaking out on this horrific behavior by United Airlines! God Bless you & Family !
Sue the flight attendant.
Yes, I would like to see people sue the individuals. If people want to sue the airlines fine but these individuals also need to be held accountable.
@@marriejames01 Also expose who he is, so he knows what is feels like. Embarrassment and defamation of character.
I would at minimum name them.
Why did he touch the flight attendant. ?????
@@0ne11hto get his attention. Let’s not act like you’ve never done before. It’s not unusual to tap someone on the shoulders.
Hopefully the passengers who witnessed the event set things straight so that Terrell's name is fully cleared. Very brave for them to go public with this. Wonderful family.
I like the way he told his Wife stay , cause of the kids , shes was like no
Kids we bouncing
But kept his head and composure
Like a true King
Wow, this brought tear to my eyes. In front of your children! Good that he spoke out.
Amen
💯
Me too!!! It’s so heartbreaking that someone like this flight attendant can literally lie about a very minor encounter, and as a result Mr. Davis is immediately treated like a criminal without getting his side of the story.
thank goodness there were witnesses!
🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
About 15 years ago, I tapped a female co-worker on the shoulder to talk to her and she actually accused me of sexual assault. I had never talked to her before, I had never dealt with her before but I needed some supplies for the office and when I called her she didn’t hear me so I tapped her on the shoulder and she immediately looked at me, scared, saying “don’t touch my body” and a few days later an investigation was started against me. Luckily people were there and saw the whole thing, I could be in jail now. Or who knows. Some people are so melodramatic. 😑
I get the feeling that that flight attendant has a history of this sh!t.
Me too! 🤔
Yes, every report that flight attendant made should be investigated.
Where's the video?
I got the feeling there's more than just a few flight attendants out there who have a history of pulling some stoopid, ignorant, silly BS on anyone they feel like anymore today. Seriously, WTF-OVER! 🤔
While I am so sorry that this happened to TD and his family, I’m thankful that he has a platform to bring attention to this. TD is a legend here in CO, not only because of his extraordinary performance on the field as a Bronco - but also because he had a stellar reputation as a complete professional and class act! God Bless him and his family.
Good for you for standing up! ❤
It happened to my husband and myself on an American Airlines flight to Cancun. The flight attendant started yelling at everyone loudly, frightening children stating that while he speaks, we are all, including small children to be silent in his presence. Exact wording. We were all shocked, a dr on the row behind us told him he was being inappropriate, which led to more shouting from the attendant, not the passenger. It was the most frightening flight I have ever been on, and I am an anxious flyer so to be treated so poorly only added to my anxiety. This has to stop.
I'm sorry but I hope yall had a great time in Cancun! We love it there!
sounds like that attendant had PTSD
Oh and that flight attendant did a false police report - illegal.
Now that there innocence is proven, they can definitely press charges against the flight attendant
@Readit4Life_2Chron7_14 I garantee u that this gets thrown out of criminal court and never sees a civil court! All dismissed! The only question I have why is a HOF nfl player sitting in coach?
@@JH-tg3qgAnd why does this matter? Maybe he wanted to save money. That question is a non-factor.

Sickened .
Do not be. Because you will be crying for the rest of your life.
If you're having a bad day, don't relay you're bad attitude towards passengers. He should have apologized right there on the spot. But this guy had an agenda to break Mr. Davis. I will NEVER ride United Airlines. This idiot should have been fired immediately. No apology from United to Mr. Davis personally means they aren't serious regarding anything they said.
I’m not sure about a bad day… sounds like a racist to me
This has nothing to do with a bad day it’s called racism.
I was in a situation a couple years ago where someone falsely accused me of something in the work place. When I went to HR the individual only apologized to HR and didn't say Jack to me. However, that person was relocated to a separate office and they pretty much kept their distance for me they entire time I was there. Being a little wiser I should of realized they weren't mature enough to apologize. But seeing that person be miserable because they got caught was punishment enough.
Maybe didn't take his meds. Or mixed them with the wrong pills and alcohol?
I am so sorry this happened to you. Thank you for speaking out about it ♥
This is terrible. I can't imagine that happening to anyone in front of their children.

I'm a long time United Airlines customer. I'm also a lifelong Denver Broncos fan - as far back as John Ralston being their head coach.
Thanks, Terrell, for being a voice. I don't have your platform, but I do have a wallet! My trip trip to Rome will no longer include ANY flights with United Airlines! No future plans to give ANY future business to UA until there is real change with their policy! This is my small way to hold them accountable.
The black pilots had an issue with United a few years ago. That’s all over Google

Add American Airlines too.
👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Salute
Good for him for speaking out!
I am so happy someone saw everything 🙏🏾💙🙏🏾
I’m so sorry! This is awful. United must be held accountable. Wishing peace to you and your family. Thank you for speaking up for those who cannot.
I’m so glad you’re speaking up and so sorry that happened to you.
Glad he’s speaking. Sad that many don’t have the chance to speak because they don’t have access to a GMA interview.
So sorry you and your family had to experience this…thank you for speaking out and forcing the airline to be accountable for their actions. The depth of your character can be seen when you speak about this during your interview. I wish you and your family the best Mr. Davis and I hope you are able to show em that they can’t continue to treat people that way. Thank you again for standing up sir. Don’t let them get away with it. God bless.
This horrible..sue United make them feel this injustice
Let me guess his next flight he will get free luggage check in. Or frequent flyer points. 😂
I agree with you 100%. But law enforcement has to have accountability also. STOP taking flight crew words as God and not investigating without treating passengers like criminals..remember 7 years ago when LE was called (United also) about a passenger "refusing" to give up their seat and was injured while being forcibly removed.
I'm glad that he and his wife decided to speak up. Good Morning America, thank you for covering this.
I first met Terrell Davis and his brothers when he was 5 years old. He was my next door neighbor in San Diego on Latimer Street in the Valencia park area. His mother and my mother were best friends. Directly across the street from Terrell’s family were the mother and father of the San Diego Chargers running back or should I have said wide receiver Charlie Joiner. That neighborhood had a lot of great athletes, artists and musicians back in the day and some who went on to be famous.
you have meet terrell

All in all T.Davis is one of the most modest NFL football players I’ve watched in all my years. Total shame on the airlines we pay waaaay too much to fly to encounter situations like this.
In October 1995, also on a United flight, I too had an interaction with a rude and condescending lead flight attendant. She was so rude that I have not flown on United since that episode. There should be some easy way for all passengers to rate Airline employees and maybe that would make a difference in their ability to show respect and courtesy to everyone. I only fly Delta and Southwest Airlines now. Flight attendants on both of those airlines have been fantastic!
I had a similar incident happen to me on Delta. The only difference was that when I wrote to complain, Delta responded immediately with an apology and some FF miles as compensation. Every airline, every company has bad apples. The difference is how management addresses customer service issues. United never has and never will get that part right.
@@lasticonoclast Welcome to America, I am the devil from hell.
Unconscionable! United Airlines needs to give Terrell and his family more than an apology. Somehow a number of flight attendants today seem to think themselves to be above the law.
There are more holes in his story than a block of Swiss cheese!
United Airlines has the most of this type of thing.
Thank you both for coming forward to tell us about your "incident".
My man is AGELESS he looks like he did in 1999😁
Brahhh…. I literally checked the date to make sure this wasn’t from 2004 or something.
Thank you for speaking out about this. I’m so sorry this happened to you and your family!
Everytime I see T. D. I think to myself "you wanna hike it molly 😅😂
Damn shame I won’t be flying UNITED AIRLINES anymore
Had a similar situation years ago where a really rude flight attendant accused me of calling her out her name. It was nuts. Frontier. The autonomy they give airline staff to treat people in the name of safety is ridiculous. I’m so glad he spoke up for so many of us.
Law enforcement in this country is absolutely out of control.
This is horrible!!!! The flight attendant needs a psych evaluation ASAP!
Why if someone pushes you and puts their hands on you. You would be mad too!
@@0ne11hnow you know he didn’t push the flight attendant. Don’t be ignorant.
Psychosis is running rampant
That’s what I was thinking as well!
They all should drop out.
I am so sorry that this happened to you and your family. I'm proud of you for standing up and speaking out!
I've met TD. He is a very nice guy. I'm sorry this happened to him, especially in front of his family.
The crazy thing is that this happened on a flight in mid air…with people confined to a small area and no one ask the passengers if they saw anything or what was going on.
Flight attendants have way more power than they should have ever had
And they miss the real threat it makes no sense😢😢
Have known TD for years, lived in the same area, went to church together, also know his brother , who is my frat brother. Respectful intelligent guy, who loves his wife and kids.
Thanks for speaking out god bless your family!!
Amen 🙏🏾

WTF! Hearing this makes me so disgusted with society today.
Tyrell it’s so nice to see you! Always my favorite Bronco ever. ❤
I’ve admired this person for a number of years. Sad situation
STOP FYLYING UNITED AIRLINE UNTIL THEY CHANGE THE WAY THEY DO BUSINESS..........................
What a shameful practice by United. I hope people will both boycott and come forward to report similar behavior. Jeez
If I can fly any other Airline to my destination I would. They are racist and rude. I know from experience.
Oh United knows! United has had too many lawsuits to forget about them~
I was on a United flight once and the flight attendant was an elderly man who sniffled as he served us. I quietly declined whatever he was offering,... Too dangerous
That’s right go on every news network to get this story out!!
This is THE Terrell Davis for Pete’s sake. If they can treat him and his family like this, can you imagine the rest of us.
It is not the airlines. it is what America stands for around the world! Wow!
They are only sorry they got caught. I understand why the police or fbi tried to do it as quietly as possible, fearing that once they said something you could speak up and try to disprove it and they wanted as little disruption as possible. However they should have just asked you politely if you would come off the plane and speak to them. So it’s not only United who did a bad job. It’s law enforcement too. If someone said a person hit them and then an entire flight ensued where said person was not violent then that should have been taken in to account. The only reason United is apologizing however is because of the optics. They don’t care. If this never hit the media they would not apologize.
I'm sure the officers involved are conducting a thorough investigation of themselves.
@@roots1458yeah ok 🤦🏾♂️
@roots1458 😂🤣 What Country you live in??
Don't you get @root's sarcasm? @@zhairetariq2002
@@roots1458 as a retired police officer with 32 years of experience. These officers did a terrible job. You never hear one side of as story and make an arrest in this situation, without talking to both sides and any potential witnesses. Especially when the accused is non-combative. You can have him exit the plane and then interview him. Once you place the handcuffs on, you are depriving him of his freedom and making an arrest.
I love that you covered this story. I pray for the Davis family and there personal healing from this event. I respect that T.D and his wife are willing to talk live about this issue. We as a nation got a lot of internal issues to deal with. Our judicial process and system is a mess!
