On a 6-hour flight from Dubai to Albania, some passengers tried to show solidarity with a baby’s family and soothed him with one of the world’s most famous children’s songs.
On more than one occasion, passengers on a flight have had to deal with a baby or child who, in the middle of a trip, starts crying inconsolably. It can be very difficult for parents to entertain them on long flights.
Yet, it’s much easier when the other passengers, instead of being annoyed by the little ones’ cries, try to help the parents.

While that may not be seen often, a recent example happened in a flight from Dubai in the United Arab Emirates to Tirana in Albania when its passengers showed solidarity with a father who didn’t know how to soothe his child.
According to information from Daily Mail, the flight lasted six hours. Instead of being indifferent, the passengers tried to encourage the little boy to stop crying.

And how did they do it? With one of the biggest hits on YouTube of children’s music: the song «Baby Shark«. The passengers were right to do so because the child began to calm down after crying for a long time.
Witnesses said that, at the beginning of the trip, the child seemed calm, but after a few hours he began to become impatient. It was then that the people around him began to try to distract him, but nothing seemed to work.

Then, most of the passengers realized the problem and started singing the verses of «Baby Shark».
In a video recorded by one of the passengers, which went viral, the child is held in a man’s arms who tries to calm him down. In the video he is crying, but after a while, seeing that the whole plane was singing the song, he began to calm down little by little.
