LOS ANGELES -- It may not be the 15 minutes of fame she wanted, but a Chinese woman who flipped out after missing her flight from Hong Kong to San Francisco has become a bit of a YouTube sensation.
The video was taken by a passerby earlier this month at Hong Kong International Airport.
Watch her entire meltdown
The woman screams as she charges through the departure gate of the Cathay Pacific flight, which was no longer taking passengers.
She then begins to wail and puts her head down while slamming her hand on the check-in counter.
Moments later she rolls onto the floor screaming, "I want to go! I want to go!" in Cantonese while the elderly man traveling with her tries to pull her onto her feet.
Her three- minute tantrum has netted more than one million hits on YouTube.
It's reported that she was eventually placed on a flight to Los Angeles, at no extra charge.

oh my. as a chinese myself, i have never seen a chinese woman flip out quite that much in public, but i'm not surprised. it happens a lot in the private home. :s never piss off a chinese woman. sound quality's pretty shitty and some things are hard to put in english, but she's basically berating the airline and saying "why are they so stupid and leaving when not everybody's on board" and "they're wrong for leaving, don't they check first" etc. there's a lot of repeating.
