''This is not done, this is not the way anybody should be made to feel, this is terrible!" the actress says in the video as she fights her tears.

According to her, the man who was sitting behind her put his feet on the armrest of her chair. When she protested, he cited turbulence as a reason for him to rest his feet in that manner. To her horror, she said, the man went ahead and touched her neck and her back with his feet.
