Top Comments of this video!! :3
This happened to me once when I was very young and it was just like the witness in this video described. It happened out of nowhere, and we didnt just drop, it was like we were pulled down. A flight attendant was walking by and she shot straight up to the ceiling, stuck there like a cartoon character with her arms and legs splayed out, and came crashing down HARD. People tried to catch her but it was impossible to completely break her fall. Her face hit an armrest and no doubt she broke something. She swelled up instantaneously. It was horrifying and I was only ten years old, flying all alone without any family.

If there was a momentary total loss of power to the cockpit instruments, that would probably disengage the autopilot.
If the trim was set slightly nose down at that moment, then it could well produce negative G until the pilots could react.
Very strange that that would happen because the left and right instruments are usually on separate supplies.

Two possible solutions or a combination of both:
1. CAT: which was so heavy that even the electrics of the plane were for a moment disconnected
2. Stall: when planes fly very high and very fast, shock waves on the wing upper surface could form if the critical Mach number is exceeded. For this reason, a speed margin called coffin corner exists. Imagine the coffin corner is between 250 kts (lowest) and 280 kts (highest). If exceeding 280 kts (critical Mach speed) there is a chance to stall due to mach tuck (as described above) and if flying below 250 kts you stall because air density is so low that there are basically no molecules to create the necessary lift.
That’s why I always remain my fasten seat belt. Speed can drop and rise faster than you think ✌🏼

That is why you always remain buckled-up unless going for a toilet visit.
