United Airlines inadvertently deploys oxygen masks, causing passengers to panic

Chaos ensued on a recent United Airlines flight following an automated emergency announcement that instructed passengers to put on their oxygen masks, which inadvertently deployed in spite of no danger present. 

The unusual incident occurred on a Boeing 777-200 from Charles de Gaulle Airport in Paris to Dulles International Airport in Washington, D.C., last Wednesday. 

While passengers were instructed to wear the oxygen masks, only a few were actually deployed.

Parker Pitman, a passenger on United flight 914, told aviation news site Simple Flying that the panic even caused some people to try to force open the ceiling compartments in order to access the oxygen masks that had not come down.
