A major US airport in Florida looked like a set of a Nickelodeon show after ‘slime’ appeared to leak down the walls
A neon-green liquid rained down from the ceiling of a major US airport.
If you flew from Miami International Airport, you might have thought you were on the set of a Nickelodeon show, as slime blanketed the floor at gate G7 around 9 a.m. on Independence Day (July 4).
Fortunately, no one got coated in goo, and there was no 90s comedy audience to mock whoever was beneath it.
No, it was simply a brilliant green leak.
A video of the event went viral on X, and it’s clear why.
The camera pans across the terminal, showing huge green puddles on the ground as well as gushing drips from the ceiling.
In the video, airport visitors can be heard commenting on the leak, with one person saying: “That is literally insane.”
Another can be heard saying: “Oh my god, look at the airport. What happened?”
However, despite it’s very bright color, the airport confirmed that it was ‘not hazardous’.
They also confirmed that no flights were affected due to the leak.
The airport’s X account also thanked ‘their passengers in Concourse G for their patience & understanding this morning’.

However, several others were still perplexed by the color, wondering ‘What type of liquid is this??’ and ‘Why is it neon green??’ The airport clarified this in the comments section.
They wrote: “Maintenance staff typically injects dye into chilled water pipelines to easily detect tiny leaks. This fluid posed no harm to passengers and was in no way toxic.”
To be honest, that isn’t a horrible concept.
However, that is not the strangest event to happen at Miami International Airport in recent memory.
In May, a guy was stopped while attempting to board a plane with a bag of snakes in his pants.
