Flying in an airplane is a fairly common occurrence for most people. What isn't common though, is seeing a rocket launch from your plane window.
But that is exactly what one lucky passenger experienced.
TikToker Nelito (@chefpinkpr) happened to get the best seat in the house when he witnessed a SpaceX rocket launch from his flight in Cape Canaveral, Florida.
He wrote in his post to TikTok how amazing it was to see.
"While working my flight we witnessed this once in a lifetime phenomenon!! SpaceX Falcon9"
Nelito's TikTok video went vial, having more than 23 million views since it was posted.
You can see the video here:
Most people were just as amazed as he was in the comments.

A few comments poked fun at the fact that only half the plane got to see the show.

Some comments focused on how close the plane was to the launch.

And there were even comments that indicated they seemed to think there was no such thing as space.
Choosing to believe the Earth was encased in a dome called the Firmament.

Regardless of how you feel about rockets and space, it was easily a once in a lifetime experience.
People were excited Nelito chose to share it with the world.
