VIDEO: Olympian Sha'Carri Richardson Kicked Off Flight, Passengers Applaud

Olympic sprinter Sha’Carri Richardson was recently kicked off an American Airlines flight after arguing with a flight attendant who asked her to end a phone call and show him that her phones were in airplane mode. She took issue with the flight attendant's tone and has posted multiple videos to illustrate how their interaction went. The back and forth led to her being removed from the flight. According to NBC News, an American Airlines spokesperson says she was reaccomodated on a later flight and that their team is looking into the situation.

Richardson says she was harassed, but other people on the flight may not have seen it that way. People seated nearby can be heard siding with the flight attendant and one of her videos shows a number of passengers applauding her removal.

Check out two of the videos below and see what you think. Beware of NSFW language in both.
