Two baggage handlers went viral after battling a stubborn baby stroller<\/a> for several long minutes.<\/p>\n

The scene unfolded at Kansas City International Airport<\/a> as travelers watched the struggle from a jet bridge above the tarmac.<\/p>\n

Jason Falen, who was waiting to board a flight to Denver, started recording when he realized the two workers were completely baffled by the baby gear.<\/p>\n

BAGGAGE HANDLER SLAMMED AFTER VIRAL VIDEO SHOWS GUITARS VIOLENTLY TOSSED ON TARMAC<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

“I only caught the very end,” Falen told Storyful.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“They had been trying to figure it out for five minutes, and it was comedy gold!”<\/p>\n

While the video provided a lighthearted moment, travel expert and former flight attendant Bobby Laurie told Fox News Digital that stroller etiquette<\/a> at the airport really comes down to “courtesy and preparation.”<\/p>\n

“Parents should absolutely be ready to fold their stroller themselves before handing it off to gate agents or ground staff, unless they physically need assistance,” Laurie said.<\/p>\n

In the video, the two men can be seen poking and pulling at the stroller as it refuses to budge.<\/p>\n

Travelers on the jet bridge<\/a> can be heard laughing and trying to help from afar.<\/p>\n

“Well, there’s two little buttons on the side. Like, does he not see those?” one bystander said just seconds before the workers cracked the code.<\/p>\n

When the stroller finally collapsed into the flat position, the waiting crowd erupted into cheers and applause for the workers on the ground.<\/p>\n

One of the baggage handlers even joined in, applauding himself for finally winning the “fight” against the stroller before loading it into the plane’s cargo hold.<\/p>\n

Laurie warned that because every stroller is different, there’s no guarantee the staff has encountered that particular product before to ensure they can collapse it without damage.<\/p>\n

“Staff are there to help manage the process, but they should not be expected to wrestle with unfamiliar gear while boarding is underway,” he added.<\/p>\n

To avoid a similar scene, Laurie suggests parents remove all personal items, know how their stroller folds<\/a> before getting to the gate, and be prepared to do it quickly.<\/p>\n

The struggle resonated with parents on Reddit, many of whom admitted they have been outsmarted by their own baby gear.<\/p>\n

“One time I was in a parking garage with my baby and I could not close the stroller. I had to watch YouTube videos to figure it out,” one user wrote.<\/p>\n

Others agreed that some modern designs are unnecessarily complicated \u2014 leading to high-stress moments<\/a>.<\/p>\n

“I’ve sobbed over the exact same issue before,” another user commented.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
