A flight attendant wearing an Endeavor Air uniform is seen helping people evacuate the plane one by one through an emergency exit door, which Koukov climbed through himself. Endeavor Air is a subsidiary of Delta Air Lines headquartered in Minneapolis.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The flight attendant can be heard directing passengers to &#8220;drop everything&#8221; and urging them to &#8220;come on.&#8221;\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Holy f***!&#8221; Koukov repeatedly exclaims in the recording after getting of the plane.
