TIMTHETATMAN RANTS...

[@that1dirtbag774]

"i figured i'd hang out in this line for a bit seemed like fun" fucking SENT me🤣🤣

[@Yulweii]

Give us more Timmy story time. Top tier content.

[@sounded_storm]

im with this guy, i loved this story

[@benskywalker7]

I know, I miss these from a few years ago

[@tristansfun]

He does have a talent for recalling personal experiences and telling them.

[@ScotteM]

Happened last Christmas with Southwest...happens here with 4th of July with Delta ....sign of things to come

[@peggythomas8526]

😅

[@the_real_beaker_]

When you said "this gets worse" I'm like, fucking how?? then it did hahahhaha

[@BanditTools]

I hate that pointing out trash service all of a sudden its a “Karen” moment. That word has lost all meaning, sometimes it is justified to complain.

[@TheMrNukeman]

Just like "racist" being used unnecessarily all the time.

[@BobStoneBoi]

Just like fake news being used all the time.

[@MiracleBro605]

service inudstry in America is fucking dog shit. its been getting worse for 20+ years. noone gives a fuck anymore. everyone feels underpaid and underappreciated. and they deal with it by under serving us and not giving a fuck.

[@shandaman7243]

100%

[@mattthomas1217]

Exactly, and plus I doubt all the ppl saying "karen" never experienced something like that or even old enough too. I thought mine was bad when my flight got delayed 8 hours.

[@TheOGGrandpa]

I’ve traveled hundreds of times. Tim’s story adds up. Some my my craziest adventures, stories, and character building moments have to do with airports.

[@calebscheiber8639]

the fact that tim was this tilted and still was super nice and friendly towards his fans shows what an S tier person this man is

[@saltygenes]

TSA and airlines are like having a 12 yr old babysitter who has been "Left in charge".

[@itzfraggle9620]

Seeing this live was hilarious.

[@TheProdigalGoob]

bro ive been dying the whole fucking time 🤣🤣. I would have fucking lost my mind if this happened to me

[@SidestickPilot]

Giving insight to an event like this (Chaos involving summer, holiday, weather systems, and compounding delays). The crew leaving FL to ATL must've been advised by ATC (Tower) that Atlanta had entered a ground stop due to weather. Ground stops are put into effect when weather gets so bad that it is either impossible to navigate around or penetrate for arrivals or departures. They can also be put into effect when winds exceed certain limits or micro bursts are evident. Ground stops typically don't last for more then an hour occasionally two hours at most since weather usually moves pretty quickly and with all the energy dissipated don't have long lifespans. Tim's flight was delayed more then many others due to the proximity Florida is to Georgia/Atlanta. After a ground stop ATC will give us whats called a EDCT (Estimated Departure Clearance Time) or wheels up time. This is to handle inbound traffic at an acceptable rate and since the ground stop and delay this inevitably causes a massive backlog in inbound flights as well as outbound flights. The priority for EDCT's/inbounds is based on a few criteria. First being if the aircraft was in the air already or on the ground. Aircraft in the air in a holding pattern or already enroute will get priority as they are burning fuel while aircraft on the ground have the luxury of RTG (Returning to Gate) or shutting the engines down and running the APU which burns significantly less fuel. The other criteria is distance. Aircraft that are inbound internationally will get priority as they have been in the air for several hours and can't hold too long without hitting BINGO and diverting to their alternate. After that longer transcon flights take priority to fit into the inbounds. Then lastly the short haul/regional routes can be plugged in during gaps as they are the hardest to fit into a sequence (This used to be a daily occurrence for me when I was flying regional jets out of DFW and IAH). Luggage is a whole different animal. Unfortunately the current system we have isn't the best but its the fastest to turn around flights and try to make up on delays. Bags are put into the cargo bins based on checked bags first and then gate checks last. So, if you checked your bag at the ticketing counter before going to TSA your bag will be one of the first bags packed into the cargo bin. Unfortunately in the event you need your bag removed this means the ground crew would have to pull each and every bag out of each cargo bin to reach the bag and then have to search through the bags to find the properly tagged bag causing significantly more delays. While I do wish airlines ops would be more proactive about figuring out which passengers will and won't make their connecting flights it's towards the bottom of their list when all hell breaks loose with weather and a ground stop in the airlines biggest and busiest hub. Their main goal is getting aircraft off the gates as fast they can to make gates available for inbounds and get the airline running back on time.

[@alldecentnamestaken]

Story Time Tim is fun. More of this please :)

[@andrewbrandenburg3842]

This happened to everyone during Christmas this year as well. Mayor Pete doesn't know how to run Transportation...

[@andrewnesbitt2523]

6:21 Atlanta's airport (Hartsfield-Jackson International) is literally the largest and busiest airport in the world. If the whole thing shut down, that is insane.

[@BaBaCheOnYT]

Damn imagine this happening 2 weeks ago and people still trolling Tim on live stream and giving him the trauma of B19 every day😂😂 .

[@paul_sanchez]

I feel you Tim, you have no idea how mad I feel right now for just listening to your story and remembering mine when I got stranded a whole weekend without bags and with my dog, because of course the bags did fit in the plain but not me and my dog... now I love driving 12-13 hours back home every year

[@Christ.Is.King.1488]

Loved this rant. Great story

[@ectomorph_7]

Props to you, Timmy, for keeping it together. I don’t think I could.

[@APinTheAK]

The most eventful, frustrating, rage inducing, wild, slightly unbelievable to mildly believable story’s always start with “Sooo, we where traveling-“

[@michaelgleason4791]

I heard this story live on stream and it may have been even better the second time around.

[@vulcan5189]

To add to his point about Atlanta being one of the “larger” travel hubs, Atlanta airport is actually THE BUSIEST airports….in the WORLD. It facilitates more passengers every year than any other airport in the WORLD, not just US. The fact it completely shutdown at all is insane. Terrible luck Timmy😂

[@SMBPA]

10:58 The Amount Of S#it That Was Just Adding Up 😂😂😂😂

[@snappfam508]

I was waiting for him to call ninja or beast to bring him a jet lol

[@Cdaff15]

Not being the one to experience it and instead only hear the chaos unfold makes this video so good.

[@iseeyou5710]

This had me dying laughing

[@ChrisDvorscak]

Tim I travel for a living, I know the struggle with both baggage and flight cancellations. It took me 24 hours to go from Albany NY to Myrtle Beach. In that trip it took me 14 hours to go from Albany to Newark NJ. It’s about a two and a half hour drive, I was so pissed that day. I’ve had my luggage go one the wrong flight from Denver to Chicago. Then I called the baggage help for assistance and they were absolutely zero help. My bag ended up stuck in Chicago for the day and the next day it went to Philly, to Chicago to Denver then to my final stop in grand junction. I finally got my luggage the night before I was set to fly home.

[@ncampo305]

I mean as someone who is studying to be an ATC, shutting down an airport is common especially for weather. It causes major rerouting and high work load for controllers. Air corridors have to be close and others opened, clearance delivery/app/dep/and center all get swamped issuing new clearance plus pilots who don’t feel safe landing and do a go around have to be resequenced in a line of other arrivals which also causes delays. ATC will also delay flights to slow the traffic flow so the airspace will not become crowded and dangerous, also you don’t want to over work the controller (it’s already a stressful job). That’s just my take now back to the video.

[@BeardedxEagle4130]

This is good. Gunna have to watch this again for sure

[@gregrivers3262]

This story is worth more than watching 10 hrs worth of any WZ2 play.

[@davenoidontwantto]

I used to work for Delta, and one thing I will never do. Fly into Atlanta. Either get delayed or lose your luggage. I tell friends and family when they plan their trip never go into atlanta.

[@WCworkhorse]

Thank God you finally said the airline name at the end. I was about to say, "You know how you solve this problem and get treated like a king forever? Put the airline on blast!!!!!" One of their reps will contact you so fast your head will spin.

[@BrandonGuy98]

You could just feel the pain as the story got progressively worse😂😂

[@DCIcebreaker]

I had a similar experience with delta at atlanta. flew in from California, and a storm was rolling in. i was supposed to take off around 10:00. it then got delayed to 10:30. 30 minutes later, it got delayed to 11:30. 11:15 arrives, delayed to 12:15. and then at 12:00, they delayed my flight one final time but it's at 1:00pm. i had to stay at the atlanta airport for 14 hours. my worst experience for flying so far. not as bad as yours tho.

[@rgatch8069]

I watched this live while on a delta flight. It was pretty hilarious and ironic at the same time

[@adambradam781]

Jesus you know it got real when in the middle of this story Timmy let us know that "I didn't eat yet today either"

[@rzayo]

Tim: “Some shit happened” Me: “Damn that sucks bro” Tim: “But wait…..there’s more!!!”

[@codyfoster9942]

Solid story sorry you went through that but it was definitely a funny story!

[@Tacos4EverOfficial]

The lesson everyone here should learn : FLY TO BIG PLACES, CHECK WEATHER BEFORE BOOKIKG, and DRIVE TO SMALL CITIES.

[@ICRS]

What makes ALL of this worse. Atlanta is the HEADQUARTERS for Delta. and Tim went through this much hell with them.

[@thesecondgrant]

Luv this, I'd listen to hours of this. The way he gets slowly tilted lolol

[@susannemarra1018]

😂😂😂 When they lost my luggage at LaGuardia I just said yeah send it to me when you find it. And I was out of there😂

[@stevenmatheny7381]

Bro, same story, I had to take an uber from Atlanta to Wilmington NC one time. It was like a $600 Uber, because I couldn't get a flight to Wilmington because the flight took off 1:45 late, and missed my connecting flight. I feel your pain...

[@twobearsoneduck4875]

Thank you Matt, great friend to have definitely, you got us Timbo back home.

[@coreyv8460]

Tim, flight attendents and pilots dont know where your bags go. Not part of our job description

[@IRONMANFAN-oc9fr]

That is freaking awful!! The first question I was asking when Tim started the story was, “Please god for the love of all that’s holy, PLEASE TELL ME BREW IS NOT WITH THEM!!” Because if Brewer was with them on this trip… chalked. Just chalked. As someone who has also had some terrible travel experiences before, I feel your pain Tim. Just keep in mind that Comedy is Tragedy plus Time and eventually this will be the funniest thing that has ever happened to you!

[@garrettwhite4448]

I work at one of the three big Airports in Maine, dude the horror stories we get from Atlanta on what could be considered GOOD days is haunting to me and makes me never want to work at any big Airport ever

[@michaelcouton7294]

Best f-ing story EVER! this was so funny bro!😂😂😂

[@vash4337]

When the education system fails to produce competent people, and society would like to devolve, this is what you get. " Welcome to COSTCO, we love you "

[@evolition7]

Hey Jingle All The Way is a classic "give me that turbo man daaaawwwwlllll" 😂

[@SenorDadBod]

This shit happened to me in New York. Sat on a plane for 4 hours. After being delayed 4 hours. Paid for hotel that I never got to show up to lol

[@Cars-N-Jets]

I thoroughly enjoyed this video😂

[@AGVYordan]

Love you Tim but after your last flying problem you had years ago while your wife was pregnant, that would’ve been my last time flying. Just drive as much as you possibly can

[@granitesand78]

I’m a pilot for a major airline Timmy, and unfortunately you can’t just demand to get off the airplane if you’re off the gate like that. It was probably impossible, because gate space is limited and it can take hours to get back to an open gate. So you’re kinda stuck. There is a 3 hour limit that they can keep you on the aircraft. Baggage that is checked always goes to your final destination. There isn’t enough intelligence in the system for the baggage to automatically get pulled off the connect if you decide not to go. Just assume it’s going. When you talked to the gate agent after deplaning, you should have just let them rebook you on the next available flight to Syracuse, they have to do that. If you decide not to go that’s up to you. Sorry dude. When hubs get taken out by weather, it destroys the operation for the whole airline. Atlanta is the largest airport in the world, so it gets insane.

[@hawaiianrussian1047]

Worst part of all is almost everyone that works at the airport always acts clueless whenever you have a complaint 😂😂

[@steelcityroller02]

I HAVE NBOT LAUGHED THIS HARD SINCE THE FALL GUYS RAGE COMPILATION. I NEED MORE OF THIS IN MY LIFE!!!!

[@HanJukes]

You really thought this was that funny? Dam u need more excitement in your life bro and I mean that in the nicest way possible.

[@steelcityroller02]

@@HanJukes move along troll!!!

[@michaeldelaveris3322]

That story just screams Steve Martin/John Candy Planes, Trains and Automobiles 😂

[@swampfox8407]

The exact thing happened to me leaving ATL. I missed my connecting flight and had to stay overnight.

[@gidds617]

Youre a real one for keeping a good attitude towards your fans

[@nathantamayo1249]

You're a millionaire. I think an Uber isn't too much. I'll take a job as a stage coach

[@KingJones84]

So crazy thing. I’m military. Was in ATL and they lost my bag on July 1st. I’m stationed in Turkey and haven’t seen my bag since. I’ve got a red tag too and they literally said good luck getting your bag back. Bro, I’m in Turkey. And guess who DELTA!!!!

[@DavisInDuval]

Dude there’s so many stories like this about airline flights right now.

[@boog3005]

Honestly had a similar situation where I was stranded in Dallas for 16 hours. Sat on the tarmac for 3 hours just to deboard the plane, next available flight to Houston no less, was an entire day later. Family drove 5 hours to come get me. Got my luggage a week later.

[@realwickedbrew]

Never check a bag on a domestic flight. Ever. Never ever.

[@kugwop]

ITS TIME FOR NFL PREDICTIONS TIMMY!!

[@rspigner8705]

This story made my morning, i laughed so hard... Sorry you had a rough time man

[@mu.zen1]

private jet sounds better than csgo case openings

[@aarontaylor8606]

This sounds more like an ATL problem than an airline problem Ngl. I have heard so many horror stories about Atlanta. I’ve learned that if you’re flight isn’t non-stop to your destination it isn’t worth it.

[@TheJakebriscoe]

Same thing happened to us BOTH ways going TO Costa Rica and coming BACK . Delayed 24 hours going down, delayed 6 hours coming back.

[@skyfayette8907]

dude I fly every week for work all over the U.S.... I feel the pain. I hate flying into Atlanta too but this story is brutal.

[@Unleashed-Horror]

Atlanta is the Busiest Airport in the Entire World. If it shuts down, all hell breaks loose

[@woodhalltribe]

I would normally laugh, but had the same experience getting from Baltimore to Orlando and back last week. The pain is real.

[@CoolMoon]

One letter. Two numbers. B19.

[@footballtvols12]

Dealt with this in Miami coming back from Jamaica. Nightmare doesn’t describe it, 4 days of hell

[@Pete_R]

Tim what you should of done is hired a Private Jet 😂

[@ICantBelieveItsButters]

Imagine having an INFANT that is still needing to be fed every 2 - 4 hours and you warm their bottle up to give them during take off at 7pm so they will have the bottle to soothe them and help their ears pop. Then they say their is a 15 minute delay, that turned into 45 minutes, then it turned into "we lost the crew for the plane", which then turned into "we found the crew but we lost the plane", when then turned into "we found the plane by the crew timed out", to then at 10 o'clock "we found a plane and crew we will start boarding momentarily" to finally at 12am (5 hours after we should have left) we start to board. Then "there is no cabin space and we need some people to volunteer to check their bags". Finally at 1am we are taking off (this is the time we were to be landed and back in our house) and then for a 3 hour flight I got to pace to aisle because the moment I stopped moving my son would start screaming and the flight crew acted like I was inconveniencing them taking the screaming baby to the back to bounce him around until he fell asleep just in time for the landing sequence to get it all started all over again with the screaming child. I felt so bad for every passenger on that flight, but they had all been through the same ordeal and during the 5 hours waiting in the terminal my son was such a champ. He was barely a year old and the number of other passengers that commented on how happy he was and how calm we were during that whole ordeal waiting in the terminal all applauded me for pacing and bouncing my kid for 3 hours on the flight. It was like a Red Sea parted moment where passengers that had stood up to wait to get off all motioned for my wife, my son and me to exit first. People were just very supportive and kind to us. Mind you, its like 4am ish. and no one got much, if any sleep during that flight. I will never fly on that airline again but the other passengers on that plane were 10/10 the most kindest I have ever seen. Actually one passenger (one old enough to be my aunt) asked if she could hold my kid and give me a break. I politely declined but the kindness of strangers stuck in a flying tube in the sky is amazing when you get to witness it. Oh and we had a stretch of turbulence too... that was fun, cuz it was also like auto bouncing, but also loud AF and my kid def wasn't relaxing. LOL

[@_Wake_Up_If_U_Can]

We believe in paying attention to clues from the universe. If you are on your way somewhere and every light keeps turning red and/or an accident happens right in front of you take a moment of pause and reflect on your current plan. There have been times we were stuck behind slow drivers, chose NOT to floor it around them at the dotted lines, and sure enough, a speed trap was up ahead. Or an accident happened 30 seconds before we arrived. If we had floored around the slow driver, we could have been in that accident. When we go somewhere to make a big purchase like a car we really pay attention. We just traded in the 2022 CR-V my wife hated for a Camry Hybrid XLE. The entire 90 minute trip to the dealership was flawless. Every light was green. Traffic was full speed. Even the usual wait on the bridge into Astoria, where they force you to wait ON THE BRIDGE, as they allow cars from the other direction to go, did NOT HAPPEN. Due to construction to the bridge you will wait a few minutes while sitting ON THE BRIDGE what feels like 100,000 feet in the air. Every signal from the universe was a go. If you can, always pay attention to what the universe is telling you. If everything goes to poop, stop what you are doing and re-evaluate. Tim's instinct told him to get the heck off that plane after 3 hours but he decided to wait and see and the rest was worse! He should have gone with his instincts, but hindsight is always 20/20. I am not sure I would have stood up and dealt with that anger from the fellow passengers. Especially considering he has an online following, it could have gone even worse for him.

[@onebalddude]

Bro, I've had a couple situations like that. Flying shouldn't be a liability. It can ruin an entire vacation and make you waste thousands of dollars. Something needs to change.

[@TranceCowboy]

I'm just glad I wasn't the only one that got screwed over that week for flight cancelations and delays. I was stranded at the Toronto Airport for 18 hours due to so many flights being canceled and or delayed.

[@wesvirginia4611]

Dude. Atlanta airport in the summer is absolute hell

[@bradsharpe9413]

Airports are a nightmare since Covid. They have horrible customer service, they talk about your bags like they are in some mythical land. You are not a Karen for wanting reasonable customer service Tim.

[@Pixildeath]

Blows my mind you lived this long and you finally had a reality check when it comes to airports.

[@vincehale6221]

I love the podcast type videos or the ranting ones so much more than just the reactions

[@clintmiller88]

Asking for a manager isn’t cool but gets it done

[@HeleTCM]

There are no words for how bad this is. I've had a few bad experiences (which is why I NEVER check bags anymore, I'd rather do laundry wherever I'm going) with baggage claims, but this is probably the worst I have ever heard. I'd file a complaint and just submit this video attached to it, call it a day. You'd probably get a free flight out of it.

[@ddhp_]

Experienced a similar thing from Tampa to Dulles, VA on our way to Ohio stranded for two days with no bags (went to OH on the plane

[@Suspect333]

The Albany part killed me lol

[@dulowy1716]

I've learned never fly on holidays, airports can't handle it

[@GussyMarie]

this is what happens when companies don't want to pay a fair wage to employees that know their job and what to do, so they quit. and companies are left with just whatever is left. this is why companies need to take care of their employees better

[@Blu-Requiem]

No lie I felt this We were on a trip to go to nigeria And it took us 5 WHOLE DAYS to get on to a flight Over 40 hours of waiting in a damn airport Day 1 delay upon delay Day 2 they put us on separate flights that wouldn't work Day 3 the flight got delayed. We go on the plane and then the plane had issues and then they said we couldn't fly that day Day 4 they didn't mark us for the flight that day, so the system didn't have us Day MF 5 WE FINALLY LEFT

[@AnonnIdiott]

I feel your pain brother. Not only do I despise flying, but I had something similar happen to me in Detroit that just justified my hate for airports. Now I book rental cars months in advance and just drive. Fuck. An. Airport.

[@sqrlzxbigxnut2018]

Cracks me up. That rage you have to dig deep to not let out. I've been in similar situation in LA. Such a nightmare. Imagine having your son with you 😆

[@Conan361]

Exhibit A for why I literally just drive everywhere regardless of distance

[@Alran109]

This is exactly why I avoid flying. Sometimes I'd rather drive 20+ hours to somewhere rather than deal with airports. They're the worst. Just did about a 18 hour drive from Wisconsin to Dallas early June for Dreamhack. Was way less stressful than flying would have been.

[@TheBenacaster]

Check the fine print, if your flight is delayed (depending on the airliner I believe) 2-3 hours or more, you can be compensated.

[@TheBrewery23]

Bro I feel ya...had a similar experience when I traveled to Montana a couple years ago. International flight too...

[@reverance2069]

EPIC! So when's this being made into a movie? Pure comedy. I'm sorry Tim.😂😂

[@masterpuzzlegaming6349]

If you lost it, that's not even Karen. Karen is being obnoxious for no reason. Sometimes you just have to snap to get what you need.

[@jdj90]

I used to live in Atlanta and I so can attest to this. Atlanta Airport is easily the most pain-in-the-ass Airport in the US. **edit** DELTA!?!? Bro, noooo. Delta is one of the most inexpensive airlines and as such their quality is below mid. Delta has the most cramped seating and the least onboard amenities of any other airline.

[@NGKC3]

8:56 lmao fuckin dead.... what you're doing here? hand out in this line for a bit, seem like fun 🤣

[@PtolemysEye]

Yeah Atlanta airport is the busiest airport in the world by a lot. When shit like that happens it's absolute chaos.

[@jonesbplayer]

Pro travel tip. If you have an AmEx you can go to the delta line, beat the crowd and have them rebook your flight if there is a next time.

[@ericrussell3237]

Oh boy... I have a travel story.. started at 6am and be back home by 9am ...... one flight turned into needing 4 different flights.. I went from Houston Texas up to denver, tornado warning.. cant go north west but they said we could get you on another connecting flight which goes to el paso Texas, and then from their you fly to Vegas and have a 1 hour lay over from there, I was stand by for every flight and was always stuck in a middle seat,, mind you I am 6'3 Needless to say, I got home to good old SLC by midnight.. worse day ever.
