Mike Tyson’s health scare in detail

According to this unnamedindividual who spoke to authorities and press after the flight, there was already a lot of buzz taking place because Mike Tyson was ont he plane. Extreme heat in the city of Miami was the reason this specific flight had been delayed two hours. People were suffering extreme heat conditions while waiting for the plane to board everybody. Already in flight, Mike Tyson didn’t seem too well. Moments after the buzz, there were images on their screens that pointed at a medical emergency on board. This eyewitness had a feeling Mike Tyson was the one who needed this attention. Here’s the account in full: “There was a lot of buzz when he left the Admirals Club and got to the gate. A lot of fans recognised him, and a few people got pictures. He was very accommodating, and then he was escorted away from the gate because the flight was delayed.”

Thank you for watching

He continued: “After all, the gate person said that the plane was too hot because it had been sitting all day and had to cool down. Then our screens said medical assistance needed, and repeated the same thing. He was in first class, but we were in an exit row. They asked us to stay on the plane and landed, so paramedics could enter. [The stewardess] said something like, ‘He’s a really important passenger so we want to make sure he’s OK.’ I knew it was him, but I just mouthed the words ‘Mike Tyson’ and she nodded her head yes. Thankfully, Mr. Tyson is doing great. He became nauseous and dizzy due to an ulcer flare-up 30 minutes before landing. He is appreciative to the medical staff that were there to help him.”
