This is the heartwarming moment passengers on a plane sang Baby Shark to comfort a crying boy.
The young child had become very upset on a flight from Dubai, in the United Arab Emirates, to the Albanian city of Tirana last week.
Rather than simply sitting in silence for the six-hour flight, other people on the plane decided to try their best to cheer him up, breaking into a rendition of the famous children’s song.

In the footage passengers on the FlyDubai flight can be seen smiling as they clap and sing the song.
The camera pans to the upset boy, who is being held in the arms of a man, and seems to be calmed slightly by the tune as he watches them sing.
