Despite the famous TikTok analogy that turbulence is nothing more than being stuck in a *REALLY* big container of jello, it seems being jolted 4,000 feet is more than just desserts — a fact the king of making alright (alright alright) movies Matthew McConaughey and his wife, supermodel Camila Alves now know all too well.


On Wednesday, March 1, the extremely hot power couple found themselves aboard Lufthansa’s slightly ill-fated flight 496 traveling from their home in Austin, Texas to Frankfurt Germany. About 90 minutes into the flight, the plane was forced to make an emergency landing in Washington Dulles International Airport outside of Washington D.C. after enduring “brief but severe turbulence” per an airline rep — a statement that is easily the understatement of the century, per the strewn dinner rolls and shaking curtains depicted in Alves now-viral video.



“On Flight last night, I was told plane dropped almost 4000 feet, 7 people went to the hospital, Everything was flying everywhere,” the model captioned the clip shared with her one million Instagram followers.


“To respect the privacy of those around me that’s all I am showing but the plane was a CHAOS And the turbulence keep on coming,” she continued, before clarifying that this was “the @lufthansa flight you are seeing on the news today!!!! Yes…that one.” “Thank God everyone was safe and ok.”



The pair’s rebooked flight, while not disastrous, was still far from alright alright alright, the trip commencing with a good — though live-able — turbulence.


"After last night, we just got on the rescheduled flight and the pilot is saying we have 45 minutes of turbulence getting out of Washington,” she said in a video posted to her Instagram story. “Just my luck. Wish me luck."



It seems Lufthasia flights are much like stocks: To paraphrase her famous hubby, “Nobody knows if a plane is going to go up, down, sideways or in fucking circles, least of all pilots, right? It's all a fugayzi, you know what a fugayzi is?”
