mouser Sideways it's normal. You'd be surprise how often it happens.
What's not is when the plane hits an air pocket or turbulence, or heavy wind gush speed change on final approach or touch down.
That happen to me once in Chicago, on a pit stop on my way to San Jose.
Everybody simply shut up in the plane. The only sound you could hear was that old lady in the back filling up her depends. Had I worn one, I'd probably would have let go too.
