July Fourth travel chaos as ‘poisonous’ green liquid leaks all over Miami International Airport floor

There was chaos at Miami International Airport for Americans traveling for July Fourth after a mysterious green liquid leaked all over the floor.

The fluid poured from the ceilings of the terminal and covered the tile in concerning fluorescent puddles.

The deluge was caused by a broken pipe inside Miami airport’s Concourse G. Authorities identified the green liquid as glycol and reassured passengers it is only hazardous when digested

An area of the terminal was closed off with yellow tape as passengers took photos and recorded videos of the weird liquid.

Footage of the incident shows the fluorescent fluid leaking from the ceilings of the concourse as shocked passengers walk around it.

‘That’s literally insane,’ one female passenger is heard saying as the green liquid covers the floor.

Another person recording the floor near a gate says: ‘Oh my God, look at the airport. What happened?’

The camera pans to several seating areas in the airport where almost the entire floor has been covered in the green fluid.

The airport said it was not experiencing any flight delays as a result of the leak.

A spokesman said: ‘The valve feeding the pipe has been closed to stop the leaking, and cleanup efforts are now underway.

‘We would like to thank our passengers in Concourse G for their patience and understanding.’

Glycol is a ‘useful industrial compound found in many consumer products’, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

‘Examples include antifreeze, hydraulic brake fluids, some stamp pad inks, ballpoint pens, solvents, paints, plastics, films, and cosmetics.’

TSA is expecting to screen a record number of passengers over the July Fourth holiday weekend.
