"Sitting right on the wing and the noise after reaching altitude was much louder than normal. I opened the window to see the wing looking like this," user octopus_hug wrote. "How panicked should I be? Do I need to tell a flight crew member?
Holy shit, redditors are a special breed. Yes, you should probably tell someone.
I should go and find the comment.

"hi sorry, I'm sitting in 20A, and, I don't want to make a fuss or anything, but I'd appreciate if you took a peek out of my window,... Put me at ease that something I noticed on the wing is normal."
"Here, I took a photo, mind looking?"
That's far better than going "HOLY SHIT THE WING IS FALLING OFF!". In an emergency you need to be calm but decisive, and not spread panic.
Now, all the AI are going to wonder how panicked they should be if their plane disassembled mid-flight
I saw the wing fall off a plane full of people but posted it for points instead of helping. AITA?
The right thing to do is to post it on X and @ the airline.
