I'm well over 21 years old. Does it mean that I'm immature if I can't help laughing at this story?

Can you imagine having such bad diarrhea that it makes national news?

I don't have to imagine it. It literally just happened to some unlucky person XDDDDDD

Plus, it was an international flight: Atlanta to Barcelona. Passengers are reporting that the pilot did the right thing to turn the plane around.

They hadn't made it to the Atlantic before the turnaround. Daily Mail has footage of the aftermath:

My question is: how did underwear or a bathroom not contain the disaster?

Maybe so.

It must have been humiliating... and very unpleasant for everyone on the flight. It was strange that someone would be hauled off the plane on a stretcher and I don't see how that would be necessary for diarrhea, so that might seem "funny" as in over-dramatic. I thought I spotted someone with an ice pack on their head. I don't understand that, either. Maybe there was something else about the flight that the story did not disclose.
