"Not shocking at all. Have seen them stand up and take their bags and stuff out of the overhead when the plane is on final approach," wrote another user.
The video, shot by a co-passenger, shows the woman explaining the cabin crew that she needed some fresh air and touched the button to open the exit.
According to the report, the cabin crew alerted the police, which apprehended the woman.
