I was sitting directly across the Aisle from an old lady and sitting behind the old lady was this woman probably in her 20s... and when the turbulence hit, that old lady just kept on sitting there, looking so relaxed (she was still alive by the end of the flight), and the woman behind her is like screaming her head of and clutching onto the arm rests really hard... my family and I actually had a pretty good laugh about that at the time.
As for me... Turbulence is jsut another part of flying, I could still stand and take a leak if I was in the bathroom when the light and unexpected turbulence hit... other wise, I just look normal.

I am not a big fan of turbulance. I don't get super freaked out but my anxiety level increases a few levels. The problem with flying for me is that I have no control and if something does happen, well you are f***ed.
