If JaeBae can accept that she herself is too weak to walk the distance, then why can't she accept that the airport worker is too weak to push her in a wheelchair?
Because she expects everyone to do what she wants because she's fat. And when they cant its somehow discrimination. I guarantee you if she told her she was too weak to lift/push her, _all_ she was thinking was "she pushed the skinny people but not me, therefore she should do it for me regardless of her strength"
@@HaleyJo1992100% the case. People have been in her comments saying that they're obese but know that people have a hard time pushing them & don't usually expect others too. Someone shared their experience where a poor elderly man was the attendant expected to push them around & that is basically was a struggle the entire time & they themselves felt guilty about it
@@bellarina This has little to do with it but I'm also stuck on the fact that airplane seats and aisles are generally uncomfortable for most people. I'm obese myself albeit nowhere near to the point where I literally can't fit into a single airline seat, but I found the damn things uncomfortable when I was only 50 pounds overweight, and that's the reality of the average person. And never mind being a tall person! I think the vast majority of us would cheerfully pay for the luxury of first class/business travel just to have a little extra room while flying in a metal deathtrap for a few hours. We just don't because the majority of us are underpaid shmucks and being crammed together like sardines is what we can afford to do.
Everything about her just grosses me out. Her grossly excessive overeating and her constant, almost weekly plane flights. Her entire life just revolves around gluttony, consuming and excess yet everyone else is the problem.
I was born with a physical disability that means I can't walk at all. I get so mad at people like this who destroy their health on purpose, and then scream discrimination. You were given a gift I NEVER got, mobility, and you literally ate it.
It pisses me off how they try everything possible to force their way into "the disability space" saying it with pride as if anyone's taking them serious. I've seen kids in school with spina bifida who's never walked a day in their life, kids with horrible learning issues, autistic kids, and they don't scream disability the way people like her do. This entire generation's just forcing themselves in every single group they believe will reward them with sympathy 🙄
@SnowmanVR. don't fret! I've got a pretty good life :3 but I've worked hard to get that good life so I resent people like her trying to make others do the work for her lol
As a nurse, I can tell you that pushing someone of her size across a flat floor is backbreaking. Let alone up a ramp. She complains about her safety but doesn't spare a second of thought for the staff's safety.
I volunteered at a hospital when I was 14/15, I was 5’3 and weight like 90lbs. One of my jobs was to be the wheelchair escort, mostly for post op patients to the valet area I’d stay til the family member brought their vehicle and help the patient in. One time I had to take a discharged patient to this other building where she had an appointment before leaving the hospital, she was probably 50s and a bit overweight but normal enough for her age and height. There was a small ramp for wheelchairs that I couldn’t push her up, just impossible for me to do. She stood up walking up the little ramp, I moved the chair and she sat back down at the top. We carried on, I apologized for the inconvenience and she was so sweet about it. She said something like “honey with your little bird bones I’m surprised you can move me at all”. Physics doesn’t care about your feelings JB, stop whining
So true. I worked as a parameduc for 7 years. And i noticed: i had WAY more patients in the heslthy weight range who were concerned for our backs, tvan obede patients. The tiny 100lbs grandmas cared about being to heavy. While the 250lbs and up poeolpe COMPLAINED anout any delay that was caused, if we had to call adional help to carry them. I'm sorry, Lady, but i care more about my back, than about your hurt feelings.
@@erlandaislund4594 that sense of entitlement seems to be a feature in certain types of people. People that are selfish, parasitic individuals. They exist in any grouping of people but it’s so baffling when their lives don’t show any justification for it. Hope you didn’t get hurt helping others
If this chick ever ends up in a house fire and somehow gets out of it, she'll make a TikTok about how the firefighters could not literally carry her out and call them "fatphobic" 🤦♀️
There's a test one of the psychologists does on Hoarders, where she stands outside with an airhorn, tells the residents 'ok, imagine there's a fire, evacuate, if you hear the airhorn at 60 seconds and you're still inside, you've died'. Nobody has ever beaten the airhorn. It's a handy test people like JaeBae should do, because I suspect she wouldn't beat the airhorn either.
I once went to a patient in peri-arrest (impending cardiac arrest) who was so obese that she could no longer fit through the door frames in her house. We had to get the fire-fighters to come and cut a big chunk of the wall out so we could get this patient outside. We may have saved this patient's life, but the family still put in a complaint that we "destroyed" their house 🙃
My husband is firefighter. He says that if someone of that size is in a fire she's probably already dead from smoke inhalation. He'd try to carry them out, with coworkers if necessary. But she already has breathing problems. At that size it's not the heat that will kill you, but suffocation.
How can she try to roast this poor worker’s level of strength? Like they just trying to do their job. I doubt the job description included 400lb bench presses
Just like she should pay for extra seat If she wants more space she should pay for her own nurse or caregiver who could push her around in her weelchair 😅, like if you know you have mobility issues you should plan ahead.
@@imitationporcelain this is a very good point, just hire someone if you can't manage on your own, why rely on random workers who most likely cannot physically handle this
@@edodgeson1536she can't afford it, and she's soo entitled she would rather burden a stranger who doesn't get paid enough to do the job she requested.
Travel vlogs are very popular so the travel tiktoks probably are too...this probably helps put more food on her table TBH and allows her to push "morbidly obese people can do everything a normal sized person can do"
She probably doesn’t give one rats ass about the travel. She wants to be seen on a bus or a subway or a plane so she can complain about something to get more viewers so people can support their delusions of persecution and she gets paid for it.
@@glittterclitterHey, trying new cuisines is awesome. I have plans to introduce my mom to homemade paneer korma with rice and cachumber (tomato and cucumber salad). She's allergic to capsaicin, so I have to tone down the heat on things. (Once, I even managed to make a non-spicy shrimp Creole. Dad, now of blessed memory, grew up eating it, and I made full-on shrimp Creole, Hoppin' John (I only had fava beans, so it was Hoppin' Achmed), and rice. Dad was over the moon. 💖)
I've traveled with my daughter, who has leukemia, and is especially weak at times. Airport staff was super sweet and extremely helpful, including getting her a wheelchair and carrying her bag for her (I had another child on my hip, so there's that). That said, my Mama Bear would have come out in full force if I had run into this woman at the airport and she was demanding special treatment over my CHILD, who weighs at most 55lb and is FIGHTING LEUKEMIA. I'm 100% siding with the airport staff on this one, this woman is beyond entitled (and apparently have people who are capable of enabling this entitlement). I feel sorry the world has to put up with her.
Right?? When she started listing all the health stuff she was experiencing after just walking that ramp. I had to pause the video and found myself saying out loud "Lady, leave the poor worker alone. You got way BIGGER issues than this." She is delusional, clearly unhealthy and I wouldn't be surprised to hear she ended up dying, like all this other fat people who were proud fat activist.
@bumblebramblebranch Well said. From what I understand, regular physical exercise is essential in managing pulmonary hypertension. You may never be fit like someone without pulmonary hypertension, but getting and staying as fit as you can with your disease will benefit you enormously. She can't even walk up the dang ramp without having a hypoxic episode... Yikes. I agree, she is in no condition to travel. She is severely chronically ill, could become acutely ill at any moment in her state and with her lifestyle. It's shocking to see someone in such a state practically flaunting her denial of reality online for all to see. She needs a wakeup call. I don't know if anything will make her face reality though tbh. Sad.
it’d be downright NEGLIGENT for an airline to FORCE an employee physically unable to push someone of ANY size to do so anyway. The risk of injury is too high. And it’s downright cruel imo.
yes. not only an injury to the worker, but to queen butterball herself too.. as comical as it might be to imagine, what would happen if the worker lost their grip, fell, or just couldn't bare the burning in their arms one more moment.. and jaebae goes flying down a ramp accelerating like a cannonball down a slide? Honestly the airline would be smart to have a policy strictly against it to avoid tragedy
Just because she’s on wheels doesn’t mean she’s easier to push. Still 400 lbs plus whatever the wheelchair weighs. All kinds of things could go wrong in that scenario. Then she would sue because she was injured 🙄
The thing about working is your employer carries insurance coverage to pay for medical bills and lost pay if injury occurs while on the job. No employer that is a proper employer wants an employee to be forced to do something that will injure them while on the job. So the employee will have the employer generally on her side here because it risks injury. Work comp insurance is expensive. They don’t like it when they have to pay. One major surgery to repair an injury could result in the insurance company dropping coverage. Then if the employer can’t rapidly find a private company to insure work comp they have to use the state system. The state system is extremely expensive. So miss tick tic whale needs to invest in her own motorized wheelchair and stop expecting people to be injured catering to her.
I'm a former flight attendant, and you have no idea the absolute hell it was to have a morbidly obese passenger on board, and I mean hell for everyone involved, including the passenger themself. We'd often get morbidly obese ppl seated on emergency exit rows and it's so awkward to have to move them because they're not considered able-bodied and couldn't open the exit in case of an emergency or go through it and would block a very valuable escape route. They often got upset at us for that, but we were literally just following rules and safety regulations. We're not going to sacrifice the safety of all the other 230+ passengers on board just for the comfort of one person. There were always complaints from other passengers wishing to be moved elsewhere if they were sat beside a MO person, and it wasn't always just because of the lack of space left for them... I had MO people who didn't have the best hygiene and would have a certain smell, some of them even smelled of stale urine. Some other made ppl uncomfortable because of sounds they made for lack of breathing. This isn't me being mean, it was literally the reality I experienced while working in a plane. I always tried my best to have tact and empathy with them, but there's only so much we can do without breaking protocol. Aviation isn't gonna change for the better any time soon, if anything, it's gonna get more reductive, more greedy and less passenger friendly... If I were Jaebae, and if I wanted to continue enjoying the absolute privilege of traveling around the world that she has... I'd lose a significant amount of weight. She clearly has enough resources and money to do it. I also just remembered: if they were sat on the aisle seat, some times the carts wouldn't be able to pass through the aisle 🫠 So, yes, MO ppl can represent an inconvenience.
Why MO people even want to travel the world, in most countries, cities, places, and for most events, activities, and attractions you must at least have the ability to walk or fit regular-size furniture and doors
I was on a flight were the seats weren’t pre booked and I was one of the last on the plane. A big guy pointed to an available seat and I thanked him and he said “well it was you or the other fat guy and I don’t wanna sit near him. I need a seat and a half and you need half a seat, so this works” and I thought he was kidding but he absolutely wasn’t and his arm was on me the whole flight. I’m too passive to have said anything but I was not a happy camper to be honest
They do get breathing issues like sleep apnea and diabetes etc, it's really unhealthy. The smell can be from extra sweat or areas left unclean while washing as it would be difficult to do so. It's just hard for people to accept it. It's not just a social inconvenience but also self destructive.
On a recent flight with my hubby being next to a very large woman, he was not respected. He’s small, I’m over weight, but still small. She was on him. He was overheating because of her full body contact. When she got up he put down the arm rest, but she flipped it back up. He had to sit half in my seat, whispering in my ear about how this was the worst cuddle session we’ve ever had. He was waiting for a scream that he was touching her inappropriately, so he had his bottom toward for the second half of the fight.
@@hailbones666 i think i get what she means. Like you're overweight but not taking up more space than the average sized person. So you're not slim but you're not so fat that you can't walk a few steps without panting. (I'm kinda in that category i think. 166cm woman 75-77 kilos)
What got me was a lot of people were mad because the worker couldn't push her. They were saying they should be made! SMDH oh hell no! I caught a 650lb patient at work, and she messed me up!! If you can't move yourself around, then you shouldn't travel without an assistant or stay home!
@@Earet0 pure adrenaline! If I had fallen with her I would have broke my neck either side of me left to right with the metal hand rail and the toilet, and the other side was the sink. We would have went though a wall on the front and landed back in the shower if we fell back and that would have hurt her too! For 6 months afterwards trying to move was so painful! Opening a simple glass door felt like I was trying to pull a house! Just thankful that I was able to keep the patient safe and was able to get her clean...
My mom was a bedside nurse and she literally dislocated her shoulder trying to lift a very heavy patient people like that are so inconsiderate about other people they think they're the only one that matters
The patient was already obese, they can’t just spontaneously lose weight so nurses can lift them. Technically hospitals and places should have equipment to help lift obese patients safely so nobody gets hurt
@@hollychamberlain2878the machines don't work for everything, and hard to use during transport. One time these EMTs refused to lift a patient I had and told the patient that it was because he was obese. It was kind of wild.
@@joesmith733 i really dont understand why these people get to this size and expect the other people around them to be a team of champion powerlifters. If they can't be lifted, they can't be lifted. No amount of determination can change that. Paramedics and EMTs arent paid well to begin with.
I do sleep studies, and you wouldn't be surprised how many 300+lbs patients expect me to pull them into a sitting position. Yeah, we dont do that. I'm not a nurse, and we aren't trained for it. They are told that if they can't get themselves out of bed, they need to bring someone to help them. It's a safety issue. They can hurt us and the reverse. My spine is already messed up, I refuse to make it worse.
it's also a massive liability issue -- first worker's comp, if you hurt your back they are liable, and OSHA puts limits on how much they can legally expect a worker to lift without assistants (or adding more assistants). You have legal rights as a worker, and sadly fat acceptance people can't accept other people have rights if that means they don't get what they want instantly. But on top of that if the patient gets hurt you personally and the hospital/clinic could be held responsible. It's not just you don't want to it's that you can't legally do it, or that doing so could put you and your employer in immense legal risk.
My husband just passed and while he was comatose in the ICU they had this inflatable thing on top of the mattress in order to turn him from side to side to prevent bed sores. He only weighed 160 lbs and they still used it every 2 hours instead of trying to turn him w/out assistance to prevent injury. But heaven forbid you try to keep yourself safe from injury, don't you know that can hurt someone's feelings? Like wtf, we both weighed 200+ at one point in time and knew there were people who wouldn't be comfortable having to move us around. How can you have such little self awareness. I have nothing wrong with people who stay overweight, as long as they understand that it might be limiting to them. We made the lifestyle changes for our health and the other overweight people in our lives didn't start treating us like we were turning our backs on them.
@@SewardWritermy spine and legs are jacked up from taking care of my older lady brother. He lost a leg in a motorcycle accident, refuses to try to walk and weighs 500ish lbs. I’m 5’2 and 189lbs. It was extremely difficult and painful to push him up our driveway that is a horrible incline. Needed up having surgery and the doctor messed me up so bad. Now 15yrs later I can’t feel my right leg and can hardly walk. I have two herniated disc in my neck and two in my lower spine above where I had surgery plus degeneration. I can hardly life a case of water now. I feel worthless bc I can’t work or do fun things or run with my kiddos. All bc of taking care of an obese person
I work in healthcare and I’ve seen a 300+ pound woman yell at a pregnant, 4’7 nurse for not being able to help her stand up without help. The audacity. Also, I absolutely love this character. Bring Penny back 🖤
I'm pregnant and 5'2, I'm straight up not supposed to lift because I'm having lower back issues. I'd be so angry if I was that nurse. Nurses deal with so much 💩
I (137lbs) once tried to help a very tall and robust gentleman stand up after a stumble and it was like a scene from a cartoon w me going flying 😮 what did I honestly think was going to happen?? That I would be able to lift up 290lbs??? 😂
I am a medical Transport Driver. I was hired specifically because some of our residents are 300-400lbs. Im 6'3", 290lbs and more muscle than fat. I am one of the only people in the building that can get some of our residents, and for 2 in particular, I am the ONLY person who can successfully get them into ramps and into our transport van period. Even with a wheelchair, most people cant do this. And not every work place has access to athletic, able bodied folk of my size.
Smgdh. Empty wheelchairs alone can weigh 35-50 pounds. Add in 450 pound of a plus sized person, and the fact that the person moving the chair has to carry their own body weight which is likely 120 more pounds, then put it all on an inclined ramp. Assuming this story was true, then she's mad that someone knew they couldn't move...* checks notes* 620+ pounds up and inclined ramp. Logically ( no offense to plus size people) but if you can't move your own body weight, how TF could you think that someone 1/3 your size could move your weight, plus their own plus 35-50 extra pounds at the same time. Wtf is even going on these days?💀
Depending on how you look at it, it could be 3x or 4x more. Walking up stairs or on inclines engages complete different muscles that walking on a flat suffer and studies say that walking on stairs or incline cause double or triple the amount of weight exerted on your knees from what I understand. So effectively Jaebae wanted a women who was likely wearing heels for work, to move 620+ pounds up an incline ramp which would cause 2x to 3x more impact on her knees. At some point we have to count somethings as abuse of the employee, especially since her boyfriend could of help her instead of them wanting some like small size woman to bust her ankles, knees and back trying to move Jaebae's ( no offense meant toward large bodied people) ass. The more I think k about it, the crazier it actually is if it happened.
I would be glad, but this gives me "Things that never happened for $100, Alex" vibes. I think she is lying about this ever happening. And ftr, if you're low on O2, your lips go grey or dusky blue, NOT white. She is full of it in more ways than one.
Fr. I dont get why these people think others are obligated to hurt themselves to help them accomplish the things everyone else is able to do independently.
@@AmoxicillynnEXACTLY! Why should thin or smaller people have to injure their backs or shoulders or whatever else pushing them up a ramp? I thought the people in the fat acceptance community were healthy? If they're healthy what do they need the wheelchair for? I'm overweight and I could stand to lose at least 60 lb but I'm not going to make it everybody else's problem.
JaeBae is at the size that she could seriously injure and even k*ll a person if they pushed her wheelchair up the incline. Imagine if they lose the footing and she rolls over them.
There was story about an obese mother and her kid. They were sleeping in the same bed and the mother accidentally rolled on top of the boy and killed him. I don’t remember how the trial went but I do know they were trying to figure out if it was an accident or not.
I think it’s a extremely entitled to ASSUME an employee will be physically capable of handling your 2-400 pound body in a wheelchair when you yourself are unable to handle your own body. Half the time it’s a little old lady too, I feel like. I couldn’t imagine being infuriated that a little old lady is mad I’m trying to force her to push my hundreds of pounds butt around.
dont insult people that weigh 200 or even 300 pounds......... she weighs way way more than that. she almsot doesnt have knees with just arm and leg pegs plugged onto a 5 foot torso. you weigh far more than those 2 categories when you are almost as wide as you are tall..... still flight attendants are some of the most slender people on the planet most the time (it save on jet fuel a ton)....... i wouldnt ask ANYONE to push more than they weigh up a ramp.
I am a 36yo woman, 5'4'' and 132 pounds, physically active, and recently my father had to use a wheelchair at the hospital. He's 5'9'' and 238 pounds and boy, was I sweating and panting after just a couple of corridors and a ramp. Some jobs are more physically demanding than others, but there's a point where you have to protect yourself against others' idiocy. Obese people (who claim to be healthy) who ask others to jeopardize their own health to "accomodate them" should rightfully be refused.
30 years ago this December, my mother came to visit me in Berlin, where I was living. I rented a wheelchair, since her hips were beginning to fail from 25 years of obesity. I was 29, physically fit and weighed about 125 pounds. She was about 100 pounds heavier. I had no idea what i was getting myself into! It was wet and icy, and post-Reunification Berlin was filled with potholes and mostly lacked wheelchair ramps. So for 3 weeks, I wheeled her all over town and on some excursions into former East Germany as well. What a dutiful daughter! After she left, I realized that my thumb joints were inflamed. Bonus: my glutes were popping. But guess what? I am 59, and my thumbs still get inflamed in certain weather conditions (I still have a cute booty tho). She is 84 and probably 300 pounds, her knees are shot, but she doesn't understand why it takes a team of three caregivers to move her from her bed to her wheelchair.
@@hfizz1254 I cannot imagine doing that! berlin may be the least accessible city I have ever seen... some of those wheelchair ramps would be illegally steep in the US, in fact when I was there most probably would but the last time I was in Berlin was over a decade ago now so I anticipate it might have gotten a bit better.
I gained 4 SIZES (I'm not kidding) since October because I decided to quit smoking. I used to be fit and workout 6 days a week, but after quitting smoking I started to eat so much, I can't recognize myself in the mirror anymore. Today I worked out for the first time since October! Wish me good luck!
wishing you the best of luck! quitting smoking is so difficult i can't even imagine trying to stop lol i'm always impressed by and happy for those who kick it. congrats and keep up the hard work :)
Oh I feel you! I didn't quit smoking (since I never started), but I've gained 15kg since November after losing so much last year and working out a lot and getting fit and toned. But I fell into a dark spot in my life and hence relapsed into my Binge Eating. I can't look at myself in the mirror at the moment. I hate myself even more now. However, I know I already did it once, I can do it again. It is frustrating though...
This reminds me of a negative “fat” experience I had as an adult. Once on a fully booked flight I had to go up to a stranger and ask them if I could sit next to them, they looked me up and down looked at each other and shook their head “No” I felt so embarrassment and shame I wanted to disappear. I continued down the aisle preparing to face another rejection for being fat. I held it together and asked another couple if I could sit next to them and they graciously made room for me, leaning as far as they could to accommodate my folds. I profusely apologized and tried as hard as I could to keep my fat on my side. They told me to relax but I simply couldn’t, the look of disgust from the previous interaction was burnt into my mind. Though I felt intense shame and guilt I never blamed them because I knew this was the result of my decisions and lifestyle choices; I chose to be fat and they simply chose not to tolerate it. Years later I still feel pangs of guilt and shame yet I know full well that it’s not fair to assume or demand people to accept me or tolerate my fat ass. What really irritates me is people like her demand to be treated a certain way but what she and people like her are doing is encouraging overindulgence with no accountability. I guess what I’m saying is Eat your pound of cake but don’t complain when you have to buy a seat for each of your asscheeks.
Exactly… lying all the way! AND Not many people can push 400lbs up a ramp… I’m glad that employer made her walk instead of risking her health and integrity.
Sudden death (heart attack) is a real thing in folks that are hundreds of pounds over weight. I lost a friend - she was only 34 years old. A very loving, kind person who despite her size, worked full time (and was a great manager) She was driving, her children were in the back seat, step-mom was in the passenger seat...and she just died. Slumped over...Step-mom grabbed the wheel and turned it to avoid a head on collision. Their car hit a light pole, step-moms foot was crushed, but the kids were physically "OK"... but my friend was gone...too young.
I have a kid in a wheelchair and it’s not easy pushing him on an incline. He’s only around 130lbs. She has got to be 400++. And it’s all dead weight. It’s probably hard to push that much on a flat surface. She has absolutely ZERO self awareness. If she can’t walk that around herself then how does she expect someone else to do it??? 🙄😒
Thank you for standing up for workers. Being a flight attendant is often already a fairly physically demanding and emotionally taxing job. EMTs, nurses, and others in the emergency/medical/health care field are also constantly and callously put at risk by mobidly obese individuals. "Being fat isnt harmful, and if it is, it only harms me!! So STFU and stop harassing me!" is basically what ive heard some crybullies say. But their choices arent just hurting themselves, they are putting other people in harms way. Including passengers as well.
As a young woman who had two nurses in the family, one LVN and one CNA I have heard some horror stories, particularly from the CNA about moving obese patients. Amongst the many many things that bother me about obese people, the fact that they get upset about a world centered around normal size people has always bothered me. Even though there are many obese and morbidly obese people, the ones that are too wide to fit in normal locations always bothered me. They expect a world to be catered to them when they represent a low population. I am obese although I have been told my weight is distributed very well, I don’t expect people to cater to me and they shouldn’t either. It is extremely difficult to be able to move very big people. They should always remember this. People of any size won’t be able to move them due to equilibrium. And if they are… they will walk away with back problems and unless they are willing to pay for the injuries they cause, then perhaps they need to re-evaluate their lives?
@@pamelaliegh Because everyone thinks it's because I'm curvy and just need to "lose weight, exercise more, try this diet". I've had to have 4 Major joint surgeries and I get so many comments about if I lost a few pounds I wouldn't need them. I have an autoimmune condition and when they opened up my hip joint it was completely fused with psoriasis plaques but I heard about if I just lost weight it would be magical. No one thinks that working out is hard for me because I have an autoimmune condition and joint pains. So many feel free to comment on the contents of my shopping cart and yeah sometimes I'm getting my kids treats but the comments are about how "I don't need that". I get dirty looks trying to use an accessible stall as well.
@@CaraMiaTish18. Autoimmune conditions are caused by bad diets and other lifestyle factors. They’re easy to cure if you eat low carb and cut out seed oils, grains, sugar, etc. You admit you’re overweight and have numerous problems, but deny they’re connected. They are 100% connected.
I worked a pretty physical job as a scrawny teen years ago. The employer's health & safety policy was pretty clear about risk assessments and knowing your physical limits, primarily because they didn't want lawsuits if an employee wrecked their back hauling something way too heavy for them. This was in the mid 1990's too, so I'd imagine things are even more strict now, airlines included. Just like I'd eyeball a crate and do the math before deciding to lift it, this airline worker eyeballed Jae Bae, did the math and the result was 'oh hell naw'. Highly unlikely any Karen shenanigans will go anywhere, because the employee did nothing wrong. That is, of course, if this incident even happened.
This PISSES me off. Airlines BARELY have enough to help my wheelchair bound boyfriend. Sometimes 1 hour just to move from plane seat to outside of the seat. To see someone eat and have no disipline, then get attitude for having others not obey to thier lifestyle is so aggravating. Imagine thinking your fat issues are more of an issue than actual functional ADA regulations for those who medically NEED IT. Sincerely , a 200lb 5'4 woman who has never used my fatness as an excuse to have more luxury. Smh
I know this is kind of a tangent but I’m watching this while in residential ED treatment for my AN, and today I literally said “are you serious?” to the person running the group after they put a podcast on with an FA talking about how it was fine she was fat and unhealthy bc we’re all gonna die someday. Like?? What?? By that logic I guess I can just keep restricting unhealthily too! (Not to mention that this was a group about accepting weight gain in recovery and it was just an FA talking about how she’s the fattest she’s ever been since she recovered 🙃) I’m so sick of the reality denial of HAES and pretending like there’s no objective definition of “healthy…” and the fact that it has infested ED recovery to a truly absurd level is maddening. Jaebae is a perfect example of the absurdity. Love the video though! It was soothing to my ruffled feathers.
One thing you will never see is an elderly person who is in their 70's who weights over 500 pounds, the fat acceptance group is just them wanting to eat whatever they want as much as they want without judgement.
Almost lies. I work in the healthcare industry and had an 80 year old who needed help we thought she was a frail old lady and when she arrived she was a good 300 pounds and none of us knew how she was still breathing

Imagine being a grown adult who has eaten themselves into a wheelchair and you expect someone else, a total stranger, to push you. Buy a rascal or have your man push you. This behavior and entitlement is so gross.
Flying on a plane is a privilege!! We are so LUCKY to be living in an era where we can casually just get on a plane and fly across the globe for vacation on a whim. When people get this entitled about the experience of flying it makes me so angry. If you voluntarily eat so much food (also a privilege) that you're no longer able to walk up the ramp to the airplane, then don't. The entitlement is crazy.
I feel the same. It's such a privilege! Some people aren't healthy or able-bodied enough to fly on an airplane. That's reality. I have been too disabled to fly in the past due to severe under-treated chronic pain. It sucked, but I worked hard to get myself in better shape and get my pain under control. Now I can travel by plane with a few simple accommodations and I am not in a horrible pain flareup for days following a flight.
The nerve of these people to put themselves in that position and not only demand accommodations, but also demand that people take financial losses to make them feel better about themselves! What would they think if airlines gave them two seats for the price of one, but then when it came to skinny people they only had to pay half price because they only took up half of one seat? Oh, they would be furious about that!
On a side note, Michelle, I absolutely love the characters you play in most of your videos. They’re so different every time and it shows that you really put effort and passion into the character, the costumes and the makeup work. It makes the videos even more entertaining!
What I can't get past is that she is too large to walk her own body up the jet bridge but she has no problem expecting someone else to push her body up that bridge.
I work in a hospital transporting patients. Sometimes I have to bring out the wheelchair with the 1,000lb capacity. These people better damn be ready to pay for my inevitable back and joint surgeries from the physical toll their size puts on ME. Meanwhile, grandma at 93 years young is walking out of the place to make it to church on Sunday.
@StarryWaters-gq1oj Lots of issues with being morbidly obese when it comes to getting medical care. Most CT/MRI machines have a weight limit of 500-600lbs, as well as size restrictions when it comes to the actual size of the bore of the machine. I've seen plenty of people unable to get their imaging done because they simply don't fit in the machine. That's not the machine being discriminatory, it's a limitation of physics. Those individuals got delayed/sub-optimal care because of their size and there's simply no getting around that. So with fat-acceptance, also comes "Missed diagnosis" acceptance.
I learned that if you can’t handle the weight of your carry on and the fittest flight attendant can’t handle than it’s a you problem. So if Missy can’t handle her weight why should a flight attendant have to handle her weight?
I had to check because I thought most airlines had weight limits for carry on (8-9 kg for LOT, 10 kg for Ryanair - a little over twice those numbers in lbs) and apparently many in the US don't. You learn something new every day!
@@rilmar2137 oh that can be…I usually fly with “European” airlines. The highest weight I saw was 10kg which is really high considering that most airlines have a weight limit of around 25kg for check in luggage
@@rilmar2137 Are you sure? I fly regularly from the US to Canada. I use one of five different airlines generally. Delta, United, Alaska Air, Air Canada, and American Airlines. They may not have a weight limit but they do typically have a size limit in my experience.
6:26 your ED comment? So true. I saw the video of that volgger I think? who had a breakdown over her bagel being the wrong order; and I assure you, I had had her same exact reaction when I was severely uw due to my ED. This is not spone about enough, so thanks for bringing the convo to hit the points it should be hitting!
I have worked as an assistant for disabled people in a airport before and I have two things to say. First of all if you are that size don't expect that everyone will be able to push you around in a wheelchair, they won't, I wouldn't at least. Nobody is trying to descriminate against you, but if you are twice as big as some of the workers in the job you should also understand that some people will not be able to help you. We are talking about humans, not ants. Second, even if the worker is able to push you in a wheelchair the wheelchairs used inside planes are extremely narrow so they can fit in the runway bettewen the sits. At that size you are simply not capable of fitting in those chairs (in the USA it might be different but I strongly dout it). See how she has to turn sideways to fit the runway? If she is sitted that isn't an option and you are not able to pass. People need to stop acusing people of descrimination just because. If someone isn't fisically capable of helping you or risks injury doing so they are not to be blamed, you got yourself to that size, deal with it. Sorry for the broken English, it isn't my first lenguage
Sorry, carts and wheelchairs are for the frail not the land whales. And I was super morbidly obese and I never used those aids because I knew I needed to get off my ass and walk.
At Target and Walmart, the only people I've ever seen using the courtesy scooters are the morbidly obese, or obese parent with their brood of obese kids, or high schoolers just being immature jerks. The people who actually could have used them as intended (people recovering from an injury, elderly, pregnant, permanently disabled, etc,) just walked on crutches or already happened to have their own private scooter, or just gutted it out without the accommodations meant for them. Sad.
@@sergeipohkerova7211 Same experience here, I used to work in grocery and a majority of people using the mobility scooters were obese. To be fair... I did see elderly people use them too ( like ones who were dependent on a cane or walker), disabled people would use them to get their shopping trip done faster, and once I remember a kid with a leg cast that was so excited to use the scooter X) The thing is these fat acceptance people don't care about other actually disabled people. It was sad to me on busy days when an disabled or elderly person asked for a scooter and they were all taken by fat people... even worst cuz I remember this fat family would come in and take 2 of our 3 scooters. UGH.
@@sizzybubbles I remember having an old man come up to me when I was pushing carts and rant about that to me. There was nothing I could’ve done, but I can’t blame him. Fat fucks took all the (very limited) scooters and he needed one. People need to get a clue and leave the scooters for people who are actually disabled.
Fr once people start using those instead of walking, it just makes everything worse for them. The little exercise they probably get is by doing chores and getting groceries.
I was just in Vegas and most of the people I saw using the rentable scooters were obese middle aged people. The old people were walking around like everyone else. It was (un)surprising.
One time my mom's close friend took us to the lake to swim, it was a nice summer day. My mom's friend was morbidly obese, the waves got too intense and she needed help. I just remember trying to grab onto her arms but they would just slip from my hands because it was just squishy slippery fat.. I was horrified thinking I couldn't save her. Luckily 3 strong men were able to swim out and save her but I'll never forget how that felt trying to grab her arms. 😖 Being morbidly obese is so dangerous in more ways than people can even imagine.
I’ve pushed a normal sized person with an injury in a wheelchair. It was difficult and exhausting. I wouldn’t even attempt pushing a large person. If you can’t carry your own weight- not because of an ACTUAL disability, but because you’ve eaten yourself into morbid obesity- that’s a YOU problem.
As a thin person I want to add that the real reason the flight attendant didn't want to push her in a will hair was because she mostly didn't have the strength and obviously didn't want to broke he back.
I’m a thin person, a woman of what I thought was average size or so asked me to just assist her a few blocks (push her in her wheel chair a few blocks) so of course I thought no problem of course! But holy crap was she heavier than heck !! I thought I was going to collapse! I barely got a few blocks on flat surface, there would be absolutely no way on earth I’d be able to push her up an incline 😮😮😮 (edited to add that I carry home audio amps and speakers for a living so I’m not “weak” necessarily either)
I have a chronic illness and it's effected my lungs so greatly my stamina is TERRIBLE. I had a Dr appt and the Uber i took to go dropped me off down the hill of the office and with my social anxiety i didn't say anything. I tried to walk up the hill and barely could make it half way and had to call a nurse to bring a wheelchair out to me to help me and i felt HORRIBLE! Now i can't control the damage done to my body, but you CAN and you wanna blame and PROUDLY put your "needing" a wheelchair on someone else? I can't ...
Michelle this is the most fabulous video you made. I love your acting, make up, costumes, & how you put this video together. When I feel low, I watch your videos, especially this one & feel that lift with smiling, laughter, raising those spirits. I know a commercial airline pilot Capt of 747's & he says ain't no changing to double wide unless JaeBae & partner want to fly in a military cargo plane. He calls over sized flight passengers "Fluffy" as calling them "Fat" is against rules of airlines now.
I am 200 pounds and going through menopause. These fat acceptance people are beyond full of shit. I am miserable and I can still move around and function. I cannot imagine the misery and deception they live in. Thank you for your content.
I was once over 200 pounds and my life was a living hell every day. I’m now under 200, and I feel so much better. I’m still about 44 pounds from a normal/ideal weight. I’m on my weight loss journey. I hope you can do that too. Low carb and sugar diet works for me. I highly recommend it. 😊 Best of luck. 👍
Or the millions of people with ACTUAL disabilities they can’t help. Then there’s this one who ATE herself to that condition, and has the audacity to act like she’s the victim of society instead of her own actions. I swear some people really f*cking grind my gears....
I have to use a wheelchair. I had a young, strong man push me up one of the airline ramps last year. I weigh 200 pounds, but he still struggled. I was so embarrassed, but he was so sweet about it. A skinny woman having to push 400+ pounds would literally be impossible! In fact, I would think It would be extremely dangerous for anyone who wasn’t a large male bodybuilder. And even then..!
I think what really happened here was that the flight attendant knew this woman could not fit in the aisle while sat down, we saw her basically having to go sideways. There's no way she could have physically been wheeled until she was off the plane even if the attendant wanted to do it...
I've worked in EMS for over thirty years now. You would be surprised at how little embarrassment most of these people hold for themselves when we go through what we do while working with them. It should be mortifying, but it's not. I wish more of them knew what was said about them by their healthcare providers. One cannot shame someone who has no shame. One
My MIL is one of those workers who push people in the wheelchairs. She’s meant to help old or disabled people not people who are 300+lbs and can’t move their own bodies. Why should someone else break their back because you can’t walk your own weight down a plane? Lose weight or have another 300+ friend have a heart attack and break their back pushing you.
I am 33 years old. I have a back injury but walk fine normally. However, sometimes in airports the lines can be for 4 hours. I request wheelchair in this situation. As, standing for long periods will cause a flare up.
@@jayedith9398 Do you live in the US? There is a program called 'TSA Cares' (if I remember correctly) that is available at most large airports. They have a webpage with a form you can fill out requesting accommodations and specify your limitations, such as 'I can't stand for long periods of time.' The form must be completed and submitted no less than 72 hours before your flight leaves. A specially trained TSA agent will meet you before you go thru security and they will accompany you thru security and to your gate if needed. I often do this when I fly, as I have some medical issues that can make air travel difficult without certain accommodations. They are always so kind and helpful in my experience. It's a great program though not available at all US airports sadly. Anyway, look into it if you're in the US and plan on flying sometime soon! If you aren't in the US, you could do some research and see if your area has a similar program or how to get such accommodations from X airport.
My main problem with people like her is the entitlement. I'm not telling anyone how to live, if you want to eat yourself to death, not breathe, not be able to freely move because of choices YOU are making, then fine go do that and be happy. I wish you the best. What I don't like is how they try to shove it down your throat that they're oppressed or that we have to pay for them to use multiple seats or that structures have to completely change just because they walked themselves into a corner. I like mobility, I like breathing, I like making decisions that make me stronger. That's my right, you don't have to be like me, but I also won't go around shoving my way down people's throats.
The sad truth about her hallway complaint is the ADA already sets a minimum width thirty six inches across to accommodate wheel chairs and similar which should put into perspective the ridiculousness of that FA claims.
1:44 fun fact if this ever get to happen, it would be better to be in a separate plane, i don't want to be offensive, but it's a fact that planes have a certain weight limit so it can properly fly and not crash, so I suppose the safest option would be a separate plane, that would happen to have to carry less people than an average one
But as a wheelchair user we don’t have safe transportation. Our wheelchairs get damaged in travel all the time. We work hard to be able to travel. While these people are doing to themselves and get rights we have been fighting for since… well forever.
THIS. I remember a disability activist (I sadly can't remember her name right this second) who died after the airport badly damaged her custom chair. She was obligated to use a different chair, clearly - and in the time that it took to get her custom one sorted out, she developed a pressure sore that got infected. But yeah...let's listen to these people scream discrimination. The audacity is mind-blowing. I've heard of people literally wrapping their chairs in layers of bubble wrap, and they STILL get damaged.
So flight attendant here. First off we are only responsible for passengers during the flight. Before & after is mostly a company that works via the airport that an airline uses with seperate employees who take care of wheelchair passengers from 1 gate to the next or the exit. And also there are 3 categories for wheelchair pax: Wheelchair R/S & C. R=ramp they can walk short diatances (such as a ramp or stairs but need assistance to walk a long diatance to their next gate) S = stairs and cannot walk stairs and because of this mostly need assistance right from the exit of the aircaft. & then C = cabin. Completely immobile and require a special small isle wheelchair to be escorted to their seat in the aircraft. From the looks of it she is most likely catagorized as an R passenger. So a small distance to the special wheelchair passenger car is normal procedure.
i'm fat, but not part of the fat acceptance community. because i don't accept unhealthy body weight. i'm doing everything in my current energy and power to lose weight. i went from 328lbs to 290lbs so far. and i won't be stopping. i will get my dream body weight. i am 5'5 and my goal end weight will be 150lbs-160lbs. i did my diet change already (intuitive eating, like eating only one plate of food, and not restricting other foods, such as donuts. but i don't binge eat anymore) i am making sure that i move around every hour. and i have a severe sleep apnea diagnosis, which took over a year to diagnose, and thankfully getting a sleep apnea cpap machine on may 31st. i used to be a fat zombie, not caring about my life, until i finally decided to change it around, and i'm still making huge progress.

Okay, wait. Wait wait wait. She is already at a point where she NEEDS an oxygen tank. She USES one in some capacity on a regular basis. And she...wants to travel without one? Come again? I mean, I can understand NOT wanting to use one. I can understand being frustrated that your health has degraded to the point where you HAVE to use one whether you like it or not. But if I were in a situation where a medical device was a necessity for me, I would absolutely NOT want to travel without it. I would in fact be rather afraid to travel without it. What's the working idea here? She doesn't want to travel with her oxygen tank so she wants the airline to be compelled to somehow compensate for it? WTF?
Thank you! If you need oxygen in a regular to do most activities that would be a 🚩 for me to change my lifestyle. But knowing her (and most FA followers) she probably attributes oxygen need to something not weight related.
There are regulations regarding flying with oxygen according to a friend of mine who travels a lot and is on oxygen. Most flights require it's a FAA approved portable oxygen concentrator with a doctor's note stating it's a medical necessity. Some even offer one for the flight for a fee. With how much she travels, she would know all this already and have what equipment's allowable. Something's definitely not adding up with the 'choosing to fly without oxygen' in this case.
My issue with all of this is she/her supporters want to PAY for only one seat but get ANOTHER OR EVEN TWO MORE SEATS FOR FREE. No. Just no. Being fat doesn't entitle you to free stuff that other people don't get. Period.
Jokes aside, planes/flying is actually math based in function. My husband is a pilot and explained to me the importance of weight distribution and how it affects fuel efficiency among other things. There is a case to be made for charging flight tickets based on a person’s weight plus that of their luggage. By all means, provide larger seats, but the price would need to reflect the amount of space and weight accounted for on the aircraft.
I recall a story where a plane crashed because the average weight of Americans had increased but their calculations/figures hadn't been updated to reflect this, so the plane took off overweight and almost immediately crashed
@@wrendymion it was Air Midwest flight 5481. While it wasn't the sole cause (the other one was botched maintenance job), it heavily (pun intended) contributed to the crash (actually, neither of the two issues on its own would have caused the loss of control and crash, I imagine it would have led to "hey, the plane isn't handling as it should, let's go back to land just to be safe"). The weight of an average passenger was 20lbs / 9 kg above the average they had used in their calculations
I think we lose sight of the fact that flying isn’t an inherent right, it’s a service. While I agree no one can control their genetics, I think it may be the only way to fairly eliminate any assumed bias regarding the issue. It’s not personal, it’s just math.
If we’re talking about giving people free seats on planes then shouldn’t it be for people who actually are making a positive impact on society? How about refugees, human trafficking victims, even kids who aren’t fortunate enough to be able to travel? Does she not realise that her butt is less important then giving people that deserve it that opportunity? I’m so baffled. Edit: I LOVE YOUR HAIR MICHELLE!! I was so mad I forgot to type it lmao
I am actually disabled (which I know we can’t decide if someone is “actually disabled”, but I have multiple spinal cord conditions) and I use a manual wheelchair 24/7, but I’m also like 60 lbs overweight. It’s impossibly hard to lose weight (I have to eat around than 500 calories a day just to maintain it, and eating over 800 a day makes me gain it) so I’d kill to have her body so I could get on the treadmill and lose it. But I insist on pushing myself around no matter what, and I struggle to be humble enough to ask someone to help me at the airport because I’m stubborn and don’t l want to be seen as one of these people. No matter what I help the airline worker push myself so they don’t have to do all the work. If you’re disabled then couldn’t you use a manual wheelchair and push yourself around like me?
If i legitimately needed the wheelchair I'd have stood/sat there until the lady with the wheelchair came back. I'm not chasing anyone. Honestly I'd feel terrible if i saw someone who might not be physically able to push me, I'd not force them to, but I'd sit and wait patiently until they found someone who could push me, if i really needed the wheelchair.
There are ambulatory and non-ambulatory wheelchair users. But yeah I get what you're saying. I find it interesting that Jaebae says 'as a fat wheelchair user' or whatever when like... Idk is someone who is pushed around in a wheelchair while at the hospital really a 'wheelchair user'? If you're only using a wheelchair in specific places that PROVIDE YOU a wheelchair, I don't really consider that a wheelchair user. Jaebae doesn't have her own wheelchair right? But maybe I'm wrong.
I am 71 years old and weigh 109 pounds. I just walked 8.3 km (5.25 miles) on a warm summer day. I want to be mobile and independent as long as possible. That means not being lazy. If she controlled her appetite, she should be able to walk even farther as she appears to be 30-40 years old.
A few years ago I helped a morbidly obese family member move across the country to where I live (because they had exhausted the goodwill of everyone in their city). It was a horrible travel experience, because I had to push our luggage cart through the airport *and* push their wheelchair (the airport staff had to find the biggest one they had), because my relative refused to have anyone but me push them. Because anyone else might bump them and it would hurt. I threw my back out from the physical exertion of pushing them (alternating with all their stuff - it took forever), but that's okay; as long as they didn't get bumped. This person refuses to listen to doctors' recommendations to move, walk, use the mobility they still have or they will loose it. They want to just bedrot and scroll all day on social assistance. In retrospect, I shouldn't have helped them, but I thought I was doing the right thing at the time. 😞
What gets me is that people with disabilities genuinely have the right to ask for such accommodations but she isnt disabled she choose to be that size and so she really doesnt have the right to complain about lack of accommodations.
I mean, she very well could be disabled AND obese. She has pulmonary hypertension severe enough to require oxygen. Sure, the obesity isn't helping with that. But it's possible to be disabled and obese.
That's right, some people can't walk at or can't walk that far unassisted because their body wont let them or they would suffer injury from forcing it. She just doesn't want to because she gets exhausted and uncomfortable. If she had taken her oxygen, she may have faired better on the "long" walk.
I have binge-eating disorder as I'm addicted to sugar. However, I go on streaks where I'm counting calories and exercising regularly. Thankfully, I'm not obese but still overweight. After a week of binge eating, I feel like absolute dog-sh*t. I can't comprehend how people get to the level of these "fat activists."
Try a stimulant medication used to treat ADHD, like dextroamph/amph mixed salts. If you genuinely struggle with food/sugar addiction and those kinds of EDs, it will change your life. It acts on the same stimulus-seeking part of the brain.
I can absolutely relate. The only thing that helped for any consistent amount of time was Overeaters Anonymous. Free, unlike therapy, which wasn’t always affordable. Hang in there, you are not alone. Sending hugs.
2:07 I chose to have kids. I don’t complain that it costs more to take them somewhere. She chose to eat the 5000 additional calories a day. Pay up. However, I am sorry to everyone that has to travel with my toddlers. I am trying my best. ❤️
at 20 me (168cm, weight 54kg) and a friend of mine (same age and size as me) were expected to lift a 150kg person. we did 3 flights of stairs with this 29yo complaining because we had to take multiple stops and he wanted to go home asap because it was almost lunch time. it was the worst experience of my life. I'm on the airport worker's side.
Nurses and PSWs have been injured trying to lift obese and morbidly obese patients to clean them, transport them, or even to move around their limbs… They have special machines to lift and move morbidly obese people but not every hospital or place has it… Flight attendants have the right to refuse providing them assistance when it could potentially hurt them. If JaeBae can barely walk out the isle on her on legs… imagine how it could potentially hurt someone who’s trying to push her all the way up the isle.
@@wanderingjadah Sorry to hear that for your friend's mom. And agreed that it doesn't fully matter if the person's obese when it comes to lifting them up, just the dangers is amplified the heavier they get. Honestly think JaeBae is doing it for clout at this point
What about the gate attendant's right to not have to throw her back/shoulder/something out pushing someone who can walk? There is a reason checked bags can only have so much weight in them, so there should be a limit to the weight of people who receive non-automated assistance.
There must be weight and size limitations for people that a person is allowed to push in a wheelchair in a workplace. For example, in my workplace my contract says that I am allowed to pick up x amount of weight to y amount of height. Same should be for assistance personnel. If you are heavier, I'm sorry, but you must hire your own assistance person. It can't be expected from someone like me (160cm height, 53kg weight) to push this person up a ramp. Ridiculous!

If JaeBae can accept that she herself is too weak to walk the distance, then why can't she accept that the airport worker is too weak to push her in a wheelchair?
Because she expects everyone to do what she wants because she's fat. And when they cant its somehow discrimination. I guarantee you if she told her she was too weak to lift/push her, _all_ she was thinking was "she pushed the skinny people but not me, therefore she should do it for me regardless of her strength"
I'm imagining this poor airline worker just didn't want to throw her back out or mess up her shoulders.
@@HaleyJo1992100% the case. People have been in her comments saying that they're obese but know that people have a hard time pushing them & don't usually expect others too. Someone shared their experience where a poor elderly man was the attendant expected to push them around & that is basically was a struggle the entire time & they themselves felt guilty about it
Cuz she's selfish and entitled
My fiance used to be an EMT but had to quit the job because of his back got wrecked from transporting morbidly obese patients.
The audacity to eat herself into taking space of 2+ people and call out somebody who probably can’t even afford the amount of food she consumes.
Right?!? She cannot travel comfortably cos she's got access to unlimited food and no self-restrain lol how tragic
Right? Talk about inflation...
@@bellarina This has little to do with it but I'm also stuck on the fact that airplane seats and aisles are generally uncomfortable for most people. I'm obese myself albeit nowhere near to the point where I literally can't fit into a single airline seat, but I found the damn things uncomfortable when I was only 50 pounds overweight, and that's the reality of the average person. And never mind being a tall person!
I think the vast majority of us would cheerfully pay for the luxury of first class/business travel just to have a little extra room while flying in a metal deathtrap for a few hours. We just don't because the majority of us are underpaid shmucks and being crammed together like sardines is what we can afford to do.
Everything about her just grosses me out. Her grossly excessive overeating and her constant, almost weekly plane flights.
Her entire life just revolves around gluttony, consuming and excess yet everyone else is the problem.
👀👀
I was born with a physical disability that means I can't walk at all. I get so mad at people like this who destroy their health on purpose, and then scream discrimination. You were given a gift I NEVER got, mobility, and you literally ate it.
🫶🏻
It pisses me off how they try everything possible to force their way into "the disability space" saying it with pride as if anyone's taking them serious. I've seen kids in school with spina bifida who's never walked a day in their life, kids with horrible learning issues, autistic kids, and they don't scream disability the way people like her do. This entire generation's just forcing themselves in every single group they believe will reward them with sympathy 🙄
Right!!!
@@citrusbutter7718 totally- and to cap it off they are usually discriminatory against people who were born disabled, and treat us like garbage!

As a nurse, I can tell you that pushing someone of her size across a flat floor is backbreaking. Let alone up a ramp. She complains about her safety but doesn't spare a second of thought for the staff's safety.
They never do.
I’d argue there that is the airports fault. After a certain weight the wheelchair should be motorized.
@@gamingwhilebroken2355that’s on the person not the airport
@@gamingwhilebroken2355or she can lose weight. Clearly she isnt healthy at every size or she could walk herself places.
Drove an ambulance and you can't stop once you started because restarting is tough.
I volunteered at a hospital when I was 14/15, I was 5’3 and weight like 90lbs. One of my jobs was to be the wheelchair escort, mostly for post op patients to the valet area I’d stay til the family member brought their vehicle and help the patient in. One time I had to take a discharged patient to this other building where she had an appointment before leaving the hospital, she was probably 50s and a bit overweight but normal enough for her age and height. There was a small ramp for wheelchairs that I couldn’t push her up, just impossible for me to do. She stood up walking up the little ramp, I moved the chair and she sat back down at the top. We carried on, I apologized for the inconvenience and she was so sweet about it. She said something like “honey with your little bird bones I’m surprised you can move me at all”.

So true. I worked as a parameduc for 7 years. And i noticed: i had WAY more patients in the heslthy weight range who were concerned for our backs, tvan obede patients.

There's a test one of the psychologists does on Hoarders, where she stands outside with an airhorn, tells the residents 'ok, imagine there's a fire, evacuate, if you hear the airhorn at 60 seconds and you're still inside, you've died'. Nobody has ever beaten the airhorn.
It's a handy test people like JaeBae should do, because I suspect she wouldn't beat the airhorn either.
Don’t give the lunatic ideas or she’ll be starting one on purpose to do just that
Or, more likely, has a medical emergency
I once went to a patient in peri-arrest (impending cardiac arrest) who was so obese that she could no longer fit through the door frames in her house. We had to get the fire-fighters to come and cut a big chunk of the wall out so we could get this patient outside. We may have saved this patient's life, but the family still put in a complaint that we "destroyed" their house 🙃
My husband is firefighter. He says that if someone of that size is in a fire she's probably already dead from smoke inhalation. He'd try to carry them out, with coworkers if necessary. But she already has breathing problems. At that size it's not the heat that will kill you, but suffocation.
How can she try to roast this poor worker’s level of strength? Like they just trying to do their job. I doubt the job description included 400lb bench presses
😂
Just like she should pay for extra seat If she wants more space she should pay for her own nurse or caregiver who could push her around in her weelchair 😅, like if you know you have mobility issues you should plan ahead.

Congrats ❤️
Awesome!! ❤
Amazing!!
I dont even understand why she wants to travel so much when she cant fit anywhere, cant walk, and cant do anything fun
Travel vlogs are very popular so the travel tiktoks probably are too...this probably helps put more food on her table TBH and allows her to push "morbidly obese people can do everything a normal sized person can do"
Girls tryna eat them exotic foods
@@glittterclitterI was going to say this. She might not be able to do anything fun but she definitely can eat.
She probably doesn’t give one rats ass about the travel. She wants to be seen on a bus or a subway or a plane so she can complain about something to get more viewers so people can support their delusions of persecution and she gets paid for it.
@@glittterclitterHey, trying new cuisines is awesome. I have plans to introduce my mom to homemade paneer korma with rice and cachumber (tomato and cucumber salad). She's allergic to capsaicin, so I have to tone down the heat on things. (Once, I even managed to make a non-spicy shrimp Creole. Dad, now of blessed memory, grew up eating it, and I made full-on shrimp Creole, Hoppin' John (I only had fava beans, so it was Hoppin' Achmed), and rice. Dad was over the moon. 💖)
I've traveled with my daughter, who has leukemia, and is especially weak at times. Airport staff was super sweet and extremely helpful, including getting her a wheelchair and carrying her bag for her (I had another child on my hip, so there's that). That said, my Mama Bear would have come out in full force if I had run into this woman at the airport and she was demanding special treatment over my CHILD, who weighs at most 55lb and is FIGHTING LEUKEMIA. I'm 100% siding with the airport staff on this one, this woman is beyond entitled (and apparently have people who are capable of enabling this entitlement). I feel sorry the world has to put up with her.
Imagine not being able to walk up a ramp, needing to fly with oxygen, and still delusionally believing you’re healthy.
And acting like all the issues you face during travelling are caused by society and not by your own actions.
Right?? When she started listing all the health stuff she was experiencing after just walking that ramp. I had to pause the video and found myself saying out loud "Lady, leave the poor worker alone. You got way BIGGER issues than this." She is delusional, clearly unhealthy and I wouldn't be surprised to hear she ended up dying, like all this other fat people who were proud fat activist.
She not only believes she’s healthy but she mocked the strength of the airport worker!! Like she isn’t 400 pounds!!!!!
@bumblebramblebranch Well said.
From what I understand, regular physical exercise is essential in managing pulmonary hypertension. You may never be fit like someone without pulmonary hypertension, but getting and staying as fit as you can with your disease will benefit you enormously. She can't even walk up the dang ramp without having a hypoxic episode... Yikes.
I agree, she is in no condition to travel. She is severely chronically ill, could become acutely ill at any moment in her state and with her lifestyle. It's shocking to see someone in such a state practically flaunting her denial of reality online for all to see. She needs a wakeup call. I don't know if anything will make her face reality though tbh. Sad.
Exactly, if it’s so easy to wheel do it yourself
it’d be downright NEGLIGENT for an airline to FORCE an employee physically unable to push someone of ANY size to do so anyway. The risk of injury is too high. And it’s downright cruel imo.
yes. not only an injury to the worker, but to queen butterball herself too.. as comical as it might be to imagine, what would happen if the worker lost their grip, fell, or just couldn't bare the burning in their arms one more moment.. and jaebae goes flying down a ramp accelerating like a cannonball down a slide? Honestly the airline would be smart to have a policy strictly against it to avoid tragedy
Just because she’s on wheels doesn’t mean she’s easier to push. Still 400 lbs plus whatever the wheelchair weighs. All kinds of things could go wrong in that scenario. Then she would sue because she was injured 🙄
They need to bring the motorized pallet jack for her
I wonder if it's technically under 'the right to refuse unsafe work' - I would 100% look at JaeBae and be like 'nope'
The thing about working is your employer carries insurance coverage to pay for medical bills and lost pay if injury occurs while on the job. No employer that is a proper employer wants an employee to be forced to do something that will injure them while on the job. So the employee will have the employer generally on her side here because it risks injury. Work comp insurance is expensive. They don’t like it when they have to pay. One major surgery to repair an injury could result in the insurance company dropping coverage. Then if the employer can’t rapidly find a private company to insure work comp they have to use the state system. The state system is extremely expensive. So miss tick tic whale needs to invest in her own motorized wheelchair and stop expecting people to be injured catering to her.
I'm a former flight attendant, and you have no idea the absolute hell it was to have a morbidly obese passenger on board, and I mean hell for everyone involved, including the passenger themself. We'd often get morbidly obese ppl seated on emergency exit rows and it's so awkward to have to move them because they're not considered able-bodied and couldn't open the exit in case of an emergency or go through it and would block a very valuable escape route. They often got upset at us for that, but we were literally just following rules and safety regulations. We're not going to sacrifice the safety of all the other 230+ passengers on board just for the comfort of one person. There were always complaints from other passengers wishing to be moved elsewhere if they were sat beside a MO person, and it wasn't always just because of the lack of space left for them... I had MO people who didn't have the best hygiene and would have a certain smell, some of them even smelled of stale urine. Some other made ppl uncomfortable because of sounds they made for lack of breathing. This isn't me being mean, it was literally the reality I experienced while working in a plane. I always tried my best to have tact and empathy with them, but there's only so much we can do without breaking protocol. Aviation isn't gonna change for the better any time soon, if anything, it's gonna get more reductive, more greedy and less passenger friendly... If I were Jaebae, and if I wanted to continue enjoying the absolute privilege of traveling around the world that she has... I'd lose a significant amount of weight. She clearly has enough resources and money to do it.
I also just remembered: if they were sat on the aisle seat, some times the carts wouldn't be able to pass through the aisle 🫠 So, yes, MO ppl can represent an inconvenience.
Why MO people even want to travel the world, in most countries, cities, places, and for most events, activities, and attractions you must at least have the ability to walk or fit regular-size furniture and doors
I was on a flight were the seats weren’t pre booked and I was one of the last on the plane. A big guy pointed to an available seat and I thanked him and he said “well it was you or the other fat guy and I don’t wanna sit near him. I need a seat and a half and you need half a seat, so this works” and I thought he was kidding but he absolutely wasn’t and his arm was on me the whole flight. I’m too passive to have said anything but I was not a happy camper to be honest
Omg, this sounds disgusting. I'm so sorry you had to go through this.
@kendallpage
They do get breathing issues like sleep apnea and diabetes etc, it's really unhealthy. The smell can be from extra sweat or areas left unclean while washing as it would be difficult to do so. It's just hard for people to accept it. It's not just a social inconvenience but also self destructive.
On a recent flight with my hubby being next to a very large woman, he was not respected. He’s small, I’m over weight, but still small. She was on him. He was overheating because of her full body contact. When she got up he put down the arm rest, but she flipped it back up. He had to sit half in my seat, whispering in my ear about how this was the worst cuddle session we’ve ever had. He was waiting for a scream that he was touching her inappropriately, so he had his bottom toward for the second half of the fight.
How does “over weight, but still small” work?
@@hailbones66620 lbs overweight.
@@user-bx4ti6ig3i That’s 20lbs overweight; I wouldn’t consider that to be “small”. Maybe OP meant “but still small enough to fit in one seat”?
@@hailbones666 i think i get what she means. Like you're overweight but not taking up more space than the average sized person.
So you're not slim but you're not so fat that you can't walk a few steps without panting. (I'm kinda in that category i think. 166cm woman 75-77 kilos)
I do consider myself big tho. I am big. but as compared to an MO I'm small 😅.
What got me was a lot of people were mad because the worker couldn't push her. They were saying they should be made! SMDH oh hell no! I caught a 650lb patient at work, and she messed me up!! If you can't move yourself around, then you shouldn't travel without an assistant or stay home!
650lb wtf how is that even possible
@@Earet0 pure adrenaline! If I had fallen with her I would have broke my neck either side of me left to right with the metal hand rail and the toilet, and the other side was the sink. We would have went though a wall on the front and landed back in the shower if we fell back and that would have hurt her too! For 6 months afterwards trying to move was so painful! Opening a simple glass door felt like I was trying to pull a house! Just thankful that I was able to keep the patient safe and was able to get her clean...
My mom was a bedside nurse and she literally dislocated her shoulder trying to lift a very heavy patient people like that are so inconsiderate about other people they think they're the only one that matters
The patient was already obese, they can’t just spontaneously lose weight so nurses can lift them. Technically hospitals and places should have equipment to help lift obese patients safely so nobody gets hurt
That happened to me. I wish I could not push some people! No one else would do it lol.
Well I didn't dislocate, but I injured myself pretty badly.
@@hollychamberlain2878the machines don't work for everything, and hard to use during transport. One time these EMTs refused to lift a patient I had and told the patient that it was because he was obese. It was kind of wild.
@@joesmith733 i really dont understand why these people get to this size and expect the other people around them to be a team of champion powerlifters. If they can't be lifted, they can't be lifted. No amount of determination can change that. Paramedics and EMTs arent paid well to begin with.
I do sleep studies, and you wouldn't be surprised how many 300+lbs patients expect me to pull them into a sitting position. Yeah, we dont do that. I'm not a nurse, and we aren't trained for it. They are told that if they can't get themselves out of bed, they need to bring someone to help them. It's a safety issue. They can hurt us and the reverse. My spine is already messed up, I refuse to make it worse.
it's also a massive liability issue -- first worker's comp, if you hurt your back they are liable, and OSHA puts limits on how much they can legally expect a worker to lift without assistants (or adding more assistants). You have legal rights as a worker, and sadly fat acceptance people can't accept other people have rights if that means they don't get what they want instantly. But on top of that if the patient gets hurt you personally and the hospital/clinic could be held responsible. It's not just you don't want to it's that you can't legally do it, or that doing so could put you and your employer in immense legal risk.
My oldest niece has a permanently damaged spine because she had to shift an unusually girthy patient. She's a PA and surgical tech.
My husband just passed and while he was comatose in the ICU they had this inflatable thing on top of the mattress in order to turn him from side to side to prevent bed sores. He only weighed 160 lbs and they still used it every 2 hours instead of trying to turn him w/out assistance to prevent injury. But heaven forbid you try to keep yourself safe from injury, don't you know that can hurt someone's feelings? Like wtf, we both weighed 200+ at one point in time and knew there were people who wouldn't be comfortable having to move us around. How can you have such little self awareness. I have nothing wrong with people who stay overweight, as long as they understand that it might be limiting to them. We made the lifestyle changes for our health and the other overweight people in our lives didn't start treating us like we were turning our backs on them.
@@SewardWritermy spine and legs are jacked up from taking care of my older lady brother. He lost a leg in a motorcycle accident, refuses to try to walk and weighs 500ish lbs. I’m 5’2 and 189lbs.

I am a medical Transport Driver. I was hired specifically because some of our residents are 300-400lbs. Im 6'3", 290lbs and more muscle than fat.
I am one of the only people in the building that can get some of our residents, and for 2 in particular, I am the ONLY person who can successfully get them into ramps and into our transport van period.
Even with a wheelchair, most people cant do this. And not every work place has access to athletic, able bodied folk of my size.
They are lucky to have you.
Smgdh. Empty wheelchairs alone can weigh 35-50 pounds. Add in 450 pound of a plus sized person, and the fact that the person moving the chair has to carry their own body weight which is likely 120 more pounds, then put it all on an inclined ramp. Assuming this story was true, then she's mad that someone knew they couldn't move...* checks notes* 620+ pounds up and inclined ramp.
Logically ( no offense to plus size people) but if you can't move your own body weight, how TF could you think that someone 1/3 your size could move your weight, plus their own plus 35-50 extra pounds at the same time.
Wtf is even going on these days?💀
Bariatric wheelchairs can be 70-80lbs+ with footrests & whatnot 🥲
These people want averge workers ro push twice the weight that a marine has to carry for training
Depending on how you look at it, it could be 3x or 4x more. Walking up stairs or on inclines engages complete different muscles that walking on a flat suffer and studies say that walking on stairs or incline cause double or triple the amount of weight exerted on your knees from what I understand.
So effectively Jaebae wanted a women who was likely wearing heels for work, to move 620+ pounds up an incline ramp which would cause 2x to 3x more impact on her knees.
At some point we have to count somethings as abuse of the employee, especially since her boyfriend could of help her instead of them wanting some like small size woman to bust her ankles, knees and back trying to move Jaebae's ( no offense meant toward large bodied people) ass.
The more I think k about it, the crazier it actually is if it happened.

Fr. I dont get why these people think others are obligated to hurt themselves to help them accomplish the things everyone else is able to do independently.
Omg right?! What if she injured herself and got fired all because this chick didn't want to walk up a ramp, which she can do...
@@AmoxicillynnEXACTLY! Why should thin or smaller people have to injure their backs or shoulders or whatever else pushing them up a ramp? I thought the people in the fat acceptance community were healthy? If they're healthy what do they need the wheelchair for? I'm overweight and I could stand to lose at least 60 lb but I'm not going to make it everybody else's problem.
Same
JaeBae is at the size that she could seriously injure and even k*ll a person if they pushed her wheelchair up the incline. Imagine if they lose the footing and she rolls over them.
There was story about an obese mother and her kid. They were sleeping in the same bed and the mother accidentally rolled on top of the boy and killed him. I don’t remember how the trial went but I do know they were trying to figure out if it was an accident or not.
I think it’s a extremely entitled to ASSUME an employee will be physically capable of handling your 2-400 pound body in a wheelchair when you yourself are unable to handle your own body. Half the time it’s a little old lady too, I feel like. I couldn’t imagine being infuriated that a little old lady is mad I’m trying to force her to push my hundreds of pounds butt around.
dont insult people that weigh 200 or even 300 pounds......... she weighs way way more than that. she almsot doesnt have knees with just arm and leg pegs plugged onto a 5 foot torso. you weigh far more than those 2 categories when you are almost as wide as you are tall.....
still flight attendants are some of the most slender people on the planet most the time (it save on jet fuel a ton)....... i wouldnt ask ANYONE to push more than they weigh up a ramp.
I am a 36yo woman, 5'4'' and 132 pounds, physically active, and recently my father had to use a wheelchair at the hospital. He's 5'9'' and 238 pounds and boy, was I sweating and panting after just a couple of corridors and a ramp. Some jobs are more physically demanding than others, but there's a point where you have to protect yourself against others' idiocy. Obese people (who claim to be healthy) who ask others to jeopardize their own health to "accomodate them" should rightfully be refused.
30 years ago this December, my mother came to visit me in Berlin, where I was living. I rented a wheelchair, since her hips were beginning to fail from 25 years of obesity. I was 29, physically fit and weighed about 125 pounds. She was about 100 pounds heavier. I had no idea what i was getting myself into! It was wet and icy, and post-Reunification Berlin was filled with potholes and mostly lacked wheelchair ramps. So for 3 weeks, I wheeled her all over town and on some excursions into former East Germany as well. What a dutiful daughter! After she left, I realized that my thumb joints were inflamed. Bonus: my glutes were popping. But guess what? I am 59, and my thumbs still get inflamed in certain weather conditions (I still have a cute booty tho). She is 84 and probably 300 pounds, her knees are shot, but she doesn't understand why it takes a team of three caregivers to move her from her bed to her wheelchair.
@@hfizz1254 I cannot imagine doing that! berlin may be the least accessible city I have ever seen... some of those wheelchair ramps would be illegally steep in the US, in fact when I was there most probably would but the last time I was in Berlin was over a decade ago now so I anticipate it might have gotten a bit better.
Agreed
I gained 4 SIZES (I'm not kidding) since October because I decided to quit smoking. I used to be fit and workout 6 days a week, but after quitting smoking I started to eat so much, I can't recognize myself in the mirror anymore. Today I worked out for the first time since October! Wish me good luck!

Oh I feel you! I didn't quit smoking (since I never started), but I've gained 15kg since November after losing so much last year and working out a lot and getting fit and toned. But I fell into a dark spot in my life and hence relapsed into my Binge Eating. I can't look at myself in the mirror at the moment. I hate myself even more now. However, I know I already did it once, I can do it again. It is frustrating though...
Good luck! You’ve got this! ❤
Jobs ask if you can lift 50 pounds, not push 500. She expects someone else to injure themselves for her. Gross entitlement.
This reminds me of a negative “fat” experience I had as an adult.
Once on a fully booked flight I had to go up to a stranger and ask them if I could sit next to them, they looked me up and down looked at each other and shook their head “No” I felt so embarrassment and shame I wanted to disappear. I continued down the aisle preparing to face another rejection for being fat. I held it together and asked another couple if I could sit next to them and they graciously made room for me, leaning as far as they could to accommodate my folds. I profusely apologized and tried as hard as I could to keep my fat on my side. They told me to relax but I simply couldn’t, the look of disgust from the previous interaction was burnt into my mind. Though I felt intense shame and guilt I never blamed them because I knew this was the result of my decisions and lifestyle choices; I chose to be fat and they simply chose not to tolerate it.
Years later I still feel pangs of guilt and shame yet I know full well that it’s not fair to assume or demand people to accept me or tolerate my fat ass. What really irritates me is people like her demand to be treated a certain way but what she and people like her are doing is encouraging overindulgence with no accountability.
I guess what I’m saying is Eat your pound of cake but don’t complain when you have to buy a seat for each of your asscheeks.
Sounds pretty ableist for her to criticize a smaller woman to push her weight.
Lips don't turn white when you are low on oxygen... They turn blue.
Thank you! I was thinking the same and as Michelle said is very telling there is no video of the incident. Someone 8Xl pants are on fire...

Came here to say this, but knew in my heart it had to be already said.
As soon as she said that I knew it was all bs.
Exactly… lying all the way! AND Not many people can push 400lbs up a ramp… I’m glad that employer made her walk instead of risking her health and integrity.
Sudden death (heart attack) is a real thing in folks that are hundreds of pounds over weight. I lost a friend - she was only 34 years old. A very loving, kind person who despite her size, worked full time (and was a great manager)
She was driving, her children were in the back seat, step-mom was in the passenger seat...and she just died. Slumped over...Step-mom grabbed the wheel and turned it to avoid a head on collision. Their car hit a light pole, step-moms foot was crushed, but the kids were physically "OK"... but my friend was gone...too young.
That is whole new variety of alarming that I had not considered.

I can’t even imagine the trauma for all involved. I’m so sorry for the loss of your friend and hope that her family is healing as best they can.
I have a kid in a wheelchair and it’s not easy pushing him on an incline. He’s only around 130lbs. She has got to be 400++. And it’s all dead weight. It’s probably hard to push that much on a flat surface. She has absolutely ZERO self awareness. If she can’t walk that around herself then how does she expect someone else to do it??? 🙄😒
No sorry she is 100 aware, she just doesn't care , which makes it even worse
Thank you for standing up for workers. Being a flight attendant is often already a fairly physically demanding and emotionally taxing job.
EMTs, nurses, and others in the emergency/medical/health care field are also constantly and callously put at risk by mobidly obese individuals.
"Being fat isnt harmful, and if it is, it only harms me!! So STFU and stop harassing me!" is basically what ive heard some crybullies say. But their choices arent just hurting themselves, they are putting other people in harms way. Including passengers as well.
As a young woman who had two nurses in the family, one LVN and one CNA I have heard some horror stories, particularly from the CNA about moving obese patients. Amongst the many many things that bother me about obese people, the fact that they get upset about a world centered around normal size people has always bothered me.
Even though there are many obese and morbidly obese people, the ones that are too wide to fit in normal locations always bothered me. They expect a world to be catered to them when they represent a low population.
I am obese although I have been told my weight is distributed very well, I don’t expect people to cater to me and they shouldn’t either.
It is extremely difficult to be able to move very big people. They should always remember this. People of any size won’t be able to move them due to equilibrium. And if they are… they will walk away with back problems and unless they are willing to pay for the injuries they cause, then perhaps they need to re-evaluate their lives?
When they choose to be big, they are choosing the consequences of being big. Their problem, not mine.
I have an invisible disability and "influencers" like this make it harder for me to get taken seriously.

I worked a pretty physical job as a scrawny teen years ago. The employer's health & safety policy was pretty clear about risk assessments and knowing your physical limits, primarily because they didn't want lawsuits if an employee wrecked their back hauling something way too heavy for them.
This was in the mid 1990's too, so I'd imagine things are even more strict now, airlines included.
Just like I'd eyeball a crate and do the math before deciding to lift it, this airline worker eyeballed Jae Bae, did the math and the result was 'oh hell naw'.
Highly unlikely any Karen shenanigans will go anywhere, because the employee did nothing wrong. That is, of course, if this incident even happened.
This PISSES me off. Airlines BARELY have enough to help my wheelchair bound boyfriend. Sometimes 1 hour just to move from plane seat to outside of the seat. To see someone eat and have no disipline, then get attitude for having others not obey to thier lifestyle is so aggravating. Imagine thinking your fat issues are more of an issue than actual functional ADA regulations for those who medically NEED IT.

I know this is kind of a tangent but I’m watching this while in residential ED treatment for my AN, and today I literally said “are you serious?” to the person running the group after they put a podcast on with an FA talking about how it was fine she was fat and unhealthy bc we’re all gonna die someday. Like?? What?? By that logic I guess I can just keep restricting unhealthily too! (Not to mention that this was a group about accepting weight gain in recovery and it was just an FA talking about how she’s the fattest she’s ever been since she recovered 🙃) I’m so sick of the reality denial of HAES and pretending like there’s no objective definition of “healthy…” and the fact that it has infested ED recovery to a truly absurd level is maddening. Jaebae is a perfect example of the absurdity. Love the video though! It was soothing to my ruffled feathers.
One thing you will never see is an elderly person who is in their 70's who weights over 500 pounds, the fat acceptance group is just them wanting to eat whatever they want as much as they want without judgement.
And don’t forget that they’re beautiful while doing it 🙄
@@MissDiancie and everybody should want to date them because otherwise it's fatphobia!
Almost lies. I work in the healthcare industry and had an 80 year old who needed help we thought she was a frail old lady and when she arrived she was a good 300 pounds and none of us knew how she was still breathing
@@pinkii6132my dad's been well over 300 pounds for forty years. He's 86 now. Still kicking about, somehow. Survived COVID last year. He's crazy strong. 😅

Imagine being a grown adult who has eaten themselves into a wheelchair and you expect someone else, a total stranger, to push you. Buy a rascal or have your man push you. This behavior and entitlement is so gross.
Flying on a plane is a privilege!! We are so LUCKY to be living in an era where we can casually just get on a plane and fly across the globe for vacation on a whim. When people get this entitled about the experience of flying it makes me so angry. If you voluntarily eat so much food (also a privilege) that you're no longer able to walk up the ramp to the airplane, then don't. The entitlement is crazy.
I feel the same. It's such a privilege! Some people aren't healthy or able-bodied enough to fly on an airplane. That's reality.
I have been too disabled to fly in the past due to severe under-treated chronic pain. It sucked, but I worked hard to get myself in better shape and get my pain under control. Now I can travel by plane with a few simple accommodations and I am not in a horrible pain flareup for days following a flight.
The nerve of these people to put themselves in that position and not only demand accommodations, but also demand that people take financial losses to make them feel better about themselves! What would they think if airlines gave them two seats for the price of one, but then when it came to skinny people they only had to pay half price because they only took up half of one seat? Oh, they would be furious about that!
On a side note, Michelle, I absolutely love the characters you play in most of your videos. They’re so different every time and it shows that you really put effort and passion into the character, the costumes and the makeup work. It makes the videos even more entertaining!
What I can't get past is that she is too large to walk her own body up the jet bridge but she has no problem expecting someone else to push her body up that bridge.
I work in a hospital transporting patients. Sometimes I have to bring out the wheelchair with the 1,000lb capacity. These people better damn be ready to pay for my inevitable back and joint surgeries from the physical toll their size puts on ME. Meanwhile, grandma at 93 years young is walking out of the place to make it to church on Sunday.
@StarryWaters-gq1oj Lots of issues with being morbidly obese when it comes to getting medical care. Most CT/MRI machines have a weight limit of 500-600lbs, as well as size restrictions when it comes to the actual size of the bore of the machine. I've seen plenty of people unable to get their imaging done because they simply don't fit in the machine. That's not the machine being discriminatory, it's a limitation of physics. Those individuals got delayed/sub-optimal care because of their size and there's simply no getting around that. So with fat-acceptance, also comes "Missed diagnosis" acceptance.
I learned that if you can’t handle the weight of your carry on and the fittest flight attendant can’t handle than it’s a you problem.
So if Missy can’t handle her weight why should a flight attendant have to handle her weight?
I had to check because I thought most airlines had weight limits for carry on (8-9 kg for LOT, 10 kg for Ryanair - a little over twice those numbers in lbs) and apparently many in the US don't. You learn something new every day!
@@rilmar2137 oh that can be…I usually fly with “European” airlines.
The highest weight I saw was 10kg which is really high considering that most airlines have a weight limit of around 25kg for check in luggage
@@rilmar2137 Are you sure? I fly regularly from the US to Canada. I use one of five different airlines generally. Delta, United, Alaska Air, Air Canada, and American Airlines. They may not have a weight limit but they do typically have a size limit in my experience.
6:26 your ED comment? So true. I saw the video of that volgger I think? who had a breakdown over her bagel being the wrong order; and I assure you, I had had her same exact reaction when I was severely uw due to my ED. This is not spone about enough, so thanks for bringing the convo to hit the points it should be hitting!
I have worked as an assistant for disabled people in a airport before and I have two things to say.
First of all if you are that size don't expect that everyone will be able to push you around in a wheelchair, they won't, I wouldn't at least. Nobody is trying to descriminate against you, but if you are twice as big as some of the workers in the job you should also understand that some people will not be able to help you. We are talking about humans, not ants.
Second, even if the worker is able to push you in a wheelchair the wheelchairs used inside planes are extremely narrow so they can fit in the runway bettewen the sits. At that size you are simply not capable of fitting in those chairs (in the USA it might be different but I strongly dout it). See how she has to turn sideways to fit the runway? If she is sitted that isn't an option and you are not able to pass.
People need to stop acusing people of descrimination just because. If someone isn't fisically capable of helping you or risks injury doing so they are not to be blamed, you got yourself to that size, deal with it.
Sorry for the broken English, it isn't my first lenguage
“One of the longest jet bridges I’ve ever encountered” of course it was 😂😂😭
Sorry, carts and wheelchairs are for the frail not the land whales. And I was super morbidly obese and I never used those aids because I knew I needed to get off my ass and walk.
At Target and Walmart, the only people I've ever seen using the courtesy scooters are the morbidly obese, or obese parent with their brood of obese kids, or high schoolers just being immature jerks. The people who actually could have used them as intended (people recovering from an injury, elderly, pregnant, permanently disabled, etc,) just walked on crutches or already happened to have their own private scooter, or just gutted it out without the accommodations meant for them. Sad.
@@sergeipohkerova7211 Same experience here, I used to work in grocery and a majority of people using the mobility scooters were obese. To be fair... I did see elderly people use them too ( like ones who were dependent on a cane or walker), disabled people would use them to get their shopping trip done faster, and once I remember a kid with a leg cast that was so excited to use the scooter X)
The thing is these fat acceptance people don't care about other actually disabled people. It was sad to me on busy days when an disabled or elderly person asked for a scooter and they were all taken by fat people... even worst cuz I remember this fat family would come in and take 2 of our 3 scooters. UGH.
@@sizzybubbles I remember having an old man come up to me when I was pushing carts and rant about that to me. There was nothing I could’ve done, but I can’t blame him. Fat fucks took all the (very limited) scooters and he needed one. People need to get a clue and leave the scooters for people who are actually disabled.
Fr once people start using those instead of walking, it just makes everything worse for them. The little exercise they probably get is by doing chores and getting groceries.
I was just in Vegas and most of the people I saw using the rentable scooters were obese middle aged people. The old people were walking around like everyone else. It was (un)surprising.
One time my mom's close friend took us to the lake to swim, it was a nice summer day. My mom's friend was morbidly obese, the waves got too intense and she needed help. I just remember trying to grab onto her arms but they would just slip from my hands because it was just squishy slippery fat.. I was horrified thinking I couldn't save her. Luckily 3 strong men were able to swim out and save her but I'll never forget how that felt trying to grab her arms. 😖 Being morbidly obese is so dangerous in more ways than people can even imagine.
Did she lose any weight after that? I would be so traumatized that I would go "okay. Time to cut everything into smaller portions."
@@kaylajames3098 unfortunately she did not.. 😔
@@deslynn2076 I am so sorry.
Is she gone(as in dead)
I'm sorry if I said was offensive.
Tbh I'm not sure, my mom and her drifted apart after a few years when we moved.
I’ve been struggling with binging recently and your videos are such a comfort
I volunteer at a retirement community about once a month... I'm yet to see a super morbidly obese elderly person...
Well. We all know why…
I’ve pushed a normal sized person with an injury in a wheelchair. It was difficult and exhausting. I wouldn’t even attempt pushing a large person. If you can’t carry your own weight- not because of an ACTUAL disability, but because you’ve eaten yourself into morbid obesity- that’s a YOU problem.
As a thin person I want to add that the real reason the flight attendant didn't want to push her in a will hair was because she mostly didn't have the strength and obviously didn't want to broke he back.
I’m a thin person, a woman of what I thought was average size or so asked me to just assist her a few blocks (push her in her wheel chair a few blocks) so of course I thought no problem of course! But holy crap was she heavier than heck !! I thought I was going to collapse! I barely got a few blocks on flat surface, there would be absolutely no way on earth I’d be able to push her up an incline 😮😮😮 (edited to add that I carry home audio amps and speakers for a living so I’m not “weak” necessarily either)
It's almost like this whole Fat Acceptance thing is coming.... Full Circle!😂🤣
I avoid being nasty, but this woman...the Fat Acceptance thing is...crumbling under its own weight.

I have a chronic illness and it's effected my lungs so greatly my stamina is TERRIBLE.
I had a Dr appt and the Uber i took to go dropped me off down the hill of the office and with my social anxiety i didn't say anything. I tried to walk up the hill and barely could make it half way and had to call a nurse to bring a wheelchair out to me to help me and i felt HORRIBLE!
Now i can't control the damage done to my body, but you CAN and you wanna blame and PROUDLY put your "needing" a wheelchair on someone else? I can't ...
Michelle this is the most fabulous video you made. I love your acting, make up, costumes, & how you put this video together. When I feel low, I watch your videos, especially this one & feel that lift with smiling, laughter, raising those spirits. I know a commercial airline pilot Capt of 747's & he says ain't no changing to double wide unless JaeBae & partner want to fly in a military cargo plane. He calls over sized flight passengers "Fluffy" as calling them "Fat" is against rules of airlines now.
I am 200 pounds and going through menopause. These fat acceptance people are beyond full of shit. I am miserable and I can still move around and function. I cannot imagine the misery and deception they live in. Thank you for your content.
I was once over 200 pounds and my life was a living hell every day. I’m now under 200, and I feel so much better. I’m still about 44 pounds from a normal/ideal weight. I’m on my weight loss journey. I hope you can do that too. Low carb and sugar diet works for me. I highly recommend it. 😊 Best of luck. 👍
Imagine the immense privilege of over eating yourself to near immobility while millions face famine and and dying from it
Or the millions of people with ACTUAL disabilities they can’t help. Then there’s this one who ATE herself to that condition, and has the audacity to act like she’s the victim of society instead of her own actions. I swear some people really f*cking grind my gears....
I totally agree with you!
Yes, this is very obviously true. 😠
I have to use a wheelchair.
I had a young, strong man push me up one of the airline ramps last year.
I weigh 200 pounds, but he still struggled. I was so embarrassed, but he was so sweet about it.
A skinny woman having to push 400+ pounds would literally be impossible!
In fact, I would think It would be extremely dangerous for anyone who wasn’t a large male bodybuilder. And even then..!
I think what really happened here was that the flight attendant knew this woman could not fit in the aisle while sat down, we saw her basically having to go sideways. There's no way she could have physically been wheeled until she was off the plane even if the attendant wanted to do it...
I've worked in EMS for over thirty years now. You would be surprised at how little embarrassment most of these people hold for themselves when we go through what we do while working with them. It should be mortifying, but it's not. I wish more of them knew what was said about them by their healthcare providers.
One cannot shame someone who has no shame.

My MIL is one of those workers who push people in the wheelchairs. She’s meant to help old or disabled people not people who are 300+lbs and can’t move their own bodies. Why should someone else break their back because you can’t walk your own weight down a plane? Lose weight or have another 300+ friend have a heart attack and break their back pushing you.
Why couldn't her husband push her.
I am 33 years old. I have a back injury but walk fine normally. However, sometimes in airports the lines can be for 4 hours. I request wheelchair in this situation. As, standing for long periods will cause a flare up.
@@jayedith9398 Do you live in the US? There is a program called 'TSA Cares' (if I remember correctly) that is available at most large airports. They have a webpage with a form you can fill out requesting accommodations and specify your limitations, such as 'I can't stand for long periods of time.' The form must be completed and submitted no less than 72 hours before your flight leaves. A specially trained TSA agent will meet you before you go thru security and they will accompany you thru security and to your gate if needed.
I often do this when I fly, as I have some medical issues that can make air travel difficult without certain accommodations. They are always so kind and helpful in my experience. It's a great program though not available at all US airports sadly. Anyway, look into it if you're in the US and plan on flying sometime soon! If you aren't in the US, you could do some research and see if your area has a similar program or how to get such accommodations from X airport.
My main problem with people like her is the entitlement. I'm not telling anyone how to live, if you want to eat yourself to death, not breathe, not be able to freely move because of choices YOU are making, then fine go do that and be happy. I wish you the best. What I don't like is how they try to shove it down your throat that they're oppressed or that we have to pay for them to use multiple seats or that structures have to completely change just because they walked themselves into a corner.
I like mobility, I like breathing, I like making decisions that make me stronger. That's my right, you don't have to be like me, but I also won't go around shoving my way down people's throats.
Exactly right!
💯
The sad truth about her hallway complaint is the ADA already sets a minimum width thirty six inches across to accommodate wheel chairs and similar which should put into perspective the ridiculousness of that FA claims.
1:44 fun fact if this ever get to happen, it would be better to be in a separate plane, i don't want to be offensive, but it's a fact that planes have a certain weight limit so it can properly fly and not crash, so I suppose the safest option would be a separate plane, that would happen to have to carry less people than an average one
But as a wheelchair user we don’t have safe transportation. Our wheelchairs get damaged in travel all the time. We work hard to be able to travel. While these people are doing to themselves and get rights we have been fighting for since… well forever.
THIS. I remember a disability activist (I sadly can't remember her name right this second) who died after the airport badly damaged her custom chair. She was obligated to use a different chair, clearly - and in the time that it took to get her custom one sorted out, she developed a pressure sore that got infected. But yeah...let's listen to these people scream discrimination. The audacity is mind-blowing. I've heard of people literally wrapping their chairs in layers of bubble wrap, and they STILL get damaged.
So flight attendant here. First off we are only responsible for passengers during the flight. Before & after is mostly a company that works via the airport that an airline uses with seperate employees who take care of wheelchair passengers from 1 gate to the next or the exit. And also there are 3 categories for wheelchair pax:
Wheelchair R/S & C.
R=ramp they can walk short diatances (such as a ramp or stairs but need assistance to walk a long diatance to their next gate)
S = stairs and cannot walk stairs and because of this mostly need assistance right from the exit of the aircaft. & then C = cabin. Completely immobile and require a special small isle wheelchair to be escorted to their seat in the aircraft.
From the looks of it she is most likely catagorized as an R passenger. So a small distance to the special wheelchair passenger car is normal procedure.

Okay, wait. Wait wait wait. She is already at a point where she NEEDS an oxygen tank. She USES one in some capacity on a regular basis. And she...wants to travel without one?
Come again?
I mean, I can understand NOT wanting to use one. I can understand being frustrated that your health has degraded to the point where you HAVE to use one whether you like it or not. But if I were in a situation where a medical device was a necessity for me, I would absolutely NOT want to travel without it. I would in fact be rather afraid to travel without it.
What's the working idea here? She doesn't want to travel with her oxygen tank so she wants the airline to be compelled to somehow compensate for it? WTF?
Thank you! If you need oxygen in a regular to do most activities that would be a 🚩 for me to change my lifestyle. But knowing her (and most FA followers) she probably attributes oxygen need to something not weight related.
There are regulations regarding flying with oxygen according to a friend of mine who travels a lot and is on oxygen. Most flights require it's a FAA approved portable oxygen concentrator with a doctor's note stating it's a medical necessity. Some even offer one for the flight for a fee. With how much she travels, she would know all this already and have what equipment's allowable. Something's definitely not adding up with the 'choosing to fly without oxygen' in this case.
@@MSinistrariIt's to prove to TikTok and all her "haters" she doesn't need it

Love when I refresh the page and I see “Michelle posted 42 seconds ago” 🤩
I agree she always provides good content
Did she threaten to deliberately cause an issue on a plane that would cancel the flight? She ought to be banned from flying for that.
“I was forced to walk” is crazy
My issue with all of this is she/her supporters want to PAY for only one seat but get ANOTHER OR EVEN TWO MORE SEATS FOR FREE. No. Just no. Being fat doesn't entitle you to free stuff that other people don't get. Period.
So I guess when she sees a sign that says "should not exceed 300 lbs" she thinks that's discrimination 🤔
Wheelchair assistance for Jae Bae is a worker hazard. People shouldn’t be worried about throwing their backs out
Jokes aside, planes/flying is actually math based in function. My husband is a pilot and explained to me the importance of weight distribution and how it affects fuel efficiency among other things. There is a case to be made for charging flight tickets based on a person’s weight plus that of their luggage. By all means, provide larger seats, but the price would need to reflect the amount of space and weight accounted for on the aircraft.
I recall a story where a plane crashed because the average weight of Americans had increased but their calculations/figures hadn't been updated to reflect this, so the plane took off overweight and almost immediately crashed
@@wrendymion it was Air Midwest flight 5481. While it wasn't the sole cause (the other one was botched maintenance job), it heavily (pun intended) contributed to the crash (actually, neither of the two issues on its own would have caused the loss of control and crash, I imagine it would have led to "hey, the plane isn't handling as it should, let's go back to land just to be safe"). The weight of an average passenger was 20lbs / 9 kg above the average they had used in their calculations
@rilmar2137 Ah I see, thanks! It's been a while since I saw the doc about it
I think we lose sight of the fact that flying isn’t an inherent right, it’s a service. While I agree no one can control their genetics, I think it may be the only way to fairly eliminate any assumed bias regarding the issue. It’s not personal, it’s just math.
Dang. That’s terrible.
If we’re talking about giving people free seats on planes then shouldn’t it be for people who actually are making a positive impact on society? How about refugees, human trafficking victims, even kids who aren’t fortunate enough to be able to travel? Does she not realise that her butt is less important then giving people that deserve it that opportunity? I’m so baffled.
Edit: I LOVE YOUR HAIR MICHELLE!! I was so mad I forgot to type it lmao
I am actually disabled (which I know we can’t decide if someone is “actually disabled”, but I have multiple spinal cord conditions) and I use a manual wheelchair 24/7, but I’m also like 60 lbs overweight. It’s impossibly hard to lose weight (I have to eat around than 500 calories a day just to maintain it, and eating over 800 a day makes me gain it) so I’d kill to have her body so I could get on the treadmill and lose it. But I insist on pushing myself around no matter what, and I struggle to be humble enough to ask someone to help me at the airport because I’m stubborn and don’t l want to be seen as one of these people. No matter what I help the airline worker push myself so they don’t have to do all the work. If you’re disabled then couldn’t you use a manual wheelchair and push yourself around like me?
If i legitimately needed the wheelchair I'd have stood/sat there until the lady with the wheelchair came back. I'm not chasing anyone. Honestly I'd feel terrible if i saw someone who might not be physically able to push me, I'd not force them to, but I'd sit and wait patiently until they found someone who could push me, if i really needed the wheelchair.
Since she did walk the distance, though, she didn't really "need" the wheelchair. She just wanted it.
@@susanb4213 Exactly.
There are ambulatory and non-ambulatory wheelchair users. But yeah I get what you're saying. I find it interesting that Jaebae says 'as a fat wheelchair user' or whatever when like... Idk is someone who is pushed around in a wheelchair while at the hospital really a 'wheelchair user'? If you're only using a wheelchair in specific places that PROVIDE YOU a wheelchair, I don't really consider that a wheelchair user. Jaebae doesn't have her own wheelchair right? But maybe I'm wrong.
You can tell just how much fun Michelle had getting into the Penny character 😂 Love it!
I am 71 years old and weigh 109 pounds. I just walked 8.3 km (5.25 miles) on a warm summer day. I want to be mobile and independent as long as possible. That means not being lazy. If she controlled her appetite, she should be able to walk even farther as she appears to be 30-40 years old.

YOU MUST BE PSYCHIC!!! HOW THE HECK DID YOU KNOW I WASN'T CLAPPING?!?! HEHEHE 😜
A few years ago I helped a morbidly obese family member move across the country to where I live (because they had exhausted the goodwill of everyone in their city). It was a horrible travel experience, because I had to push our luggage cart through the airport *and* push their wheelchair (the airport staff had to find the biggest one they had), because my relative refused to have anyone but me push them. Because anyone else might bump them and it would hurt. I threw my back out from the physical exertion of pushing them (alternating with all their stuff - it took forever), but that's okay; as long as they didn't get bumped. This person refuses to listen to doctors' recommendations to move, walk, use the mobility they still have or they will loose it. They want to just bedrot and scroll all day on social assistance. In retrospect, I shouldn't have helped them, but I thought I was doing the right thing at the time. 😞
What gets me is that people with disabilities genuinely have the right to ask for such accommodations but she isnt disabled she choose to be that size and so she really doesnt have the right to complain about lack of accommodations.
I mean, she very well could be disabled AND obese. She has pulmonary hypertension severe enough to require oxygen. Sure, the obesity isn't helping with that. But it's possible to be disabled and obese.
That's right, some people can't walk at or can't walk that far unassisted because their body wont let them or they would suffer injury from forcing it. She just doesn't want to because she gets exhausted and uncomfortable. If she had taken her oxygen, she may have faired better on the "long" walk.
Can't stand her... such a perpetual victim 🙄
I have binge-eating disorder as I'm addicted to sugar. However, I go on streaks where I'm counting calories and exercising regularly. Thankfully, I'm not obese but still overweight. After a week of binge eating, I feel like absolute dog-sh*t. I can't comprehend how people get to the level of these "fat activists."
I'm thinking some sort of mental illness. You don't eat your way to 350+ lbs being happy and well adjusted. Imho of course😊
Try a stimulant medication used to treat ADHD, like dextroamph/amph mixed salts. If you genuinely struggle with food/sugar addiction and those kinds of EDs, it will change your life. It acts on the same stimulus-seeking part of the brain.

at 20 me (168cm, weight 54kg) and a friend of mine (same age and size as me) were expected to lift a 150kg person. we did 3 flights of stairs with this 29yo complaining because we had to take multiple stops and he wanted to go home asap because it was almost lunch time. it was the worst experience of my life. I'm on the airport worker's side.
Anyone else love how they assert they should be able to travel comfortably? I'm 5'10 and 150lbs. I am NEVER comfortable on planes lmaoooo
Nurses and PSWs have been injured trying to lift obese and morbidly obese patients to clean them, transport them, or even to move around their limbs… They have special machines to lift and move morbidly obese people but not every hospital or place has it… Flight attendants have the right to refuse providing them assistance when it could potentially hurt them. If JaeBae can barely walk out the isle on her on legs… imagine how it could potentially hurt someone who’s trying to push her all the way up the isle.
@@wanderingjadah Sorry to hear that for your friend's mom. And agreed that it doesn't fully matter if the person's obese when it comes to lifting them up, just the dangers is amplified the heavier they get. Honestly think JaeBae is doing it for clout at this point
What about the gate attendant's right to not have to throw her back/shoulder/something out pushing someone who can walk? There is a reason checked bags can only have so much weight in them, so there should be a limit to the weight of people who receive non-automated assistance.
There must be weight and size limitations for people that a person is allowed to push in a wheelchair in a workplace. For example, in my workplace my contract says that I am allowed to pick up x amount of weight to y amount of height. Same should be for assistance personnel. If you are heavier, I'm sorry, but you must hire your own assistance person. It can't be expected from someone like me (160cm height, 53kg weight) to push this person up a ramp. Ridiculous!
