I tell ya, the number of crazy airline stories we cover these days...
Listen to the testimony of this couple who say another passenger got "thrown up to the ceiling" twice and fractured her ribs:
BUCKLE THOSE SEATBELTS, PEOPLE!
My favorite reply to that video:

More from CBS News:
Based on preliminary flight data, about 45 minutes into the flight the plane experienced fluctuations in altitude consistent with intense turbulence as it was flying over Wyoming, before changing course for MSP.
'We are grateful for the support of all emergency responders involved,' a spokesperson for Delta said. 'Safety is our No. 1 value at Delta, and our Delta Care Team is working directly with customers to support their immediate needs.'
The aircraft, an Airbus A330-900, had 275 passengers and 13 crew members on board.
The Federal Aviation Administration says it will investigate the incident.
A passenger on the flight told CBS News Minnesota there were three back-to-back turbulent incidents, each more severe than the last. A pilot told the passenger there was a drop of more than 1,000 feet. The pilot also told him he hadn't seen turbulence that severe before.
Remember to hang on for dear life while you're flying those friendly skies!
