The wife of the famous Hollywood actor Matthew McConaughey, model Camila Alves shared her “impressions” from the flight from Austin, Texas to Frankfurt, Germany, during which the Lufthansa plane got into the strongest turbulence zone. The Daily Mail writes about it.
The plane was at 37,000 feet over Tennessee on Wednesday evening when the crew reported severe turbulence.

It crashed over 4,000 feet, 7 people were seriously injured and hospitalized, the flight itself was redirected to Washington.
“There was chaos on board, everything was flying everywhere,” Alves said, showing the aisles littered with passengers’ belongings and utensils.
“This is the @lufthansa flight you see on the news today!!!! Yes… the same one. Thank God everyone is alive and well,” the model added.
The flight was diverted to Dulles Airport outside of Washington, D.C., and the model thanked the staff at the Marriot Bonvoy hotel near the airport, where passengers were sent to spend the night.
Earlier, another passenger on Lufthansa Flight 469, Susan Zimmerman, spoke of her horrific experience on Good Morning America.
“I don’t think any of the people on board, even the flight attendants, experienced something like that. It was shocking and like slow motion. You just see how everything rises into the air and suddenly falls again,” she said.
Many passengers were not wearing their seat belts during the unexpected turbulence and were therefore injured.
We will remind, the husband of Camila Alves, actor Matthew McConaughey, last year became the “man of the year” according to People magazine. In addition to him, the publication noted Mila Kunis, Jennifer Hudson and Quinta Brunson.
