The video of the woman was posted to TikTok by another passenger, Julia Henderson, who was seated just rows behind her and said the out-of-control woman said she 'had a bomb in her bag and was 'super drunk'.
The TikToker said the woman was spotted 'causing a scene beforehand.'
A spokesperson with Frontier Airlines confirmed to the Daily Mail that the passenger 'claimed there was an explosive device on the aircraft'.
In the clip, a police officer was seen walking up to the woman before grabbing her by her arm and saying: 'OK, let's go!'
The woman tried to pull back from the cop as he continued to try and get her out of the seat.
Fellow passengers and crew members watched on as the woman said: 'It's gonna explode!'
She then screamed: 'Oh, oh, oh, it's gonna explode!'
After several attempts to get her out of the seat, the officer managed to lift her up and walk her toward the door.
The passenger stumbled to the door before pointing at something and screaming: 'Right there!'
Some people were heard clapping after she was removed from the flight.
It is unclear if she was arrested or charged following the dramatic incident.
The woman was escorted off the plane and her 'threat was deemed noncredible,' a Frontier Airlines spokesperson told the Daily Mail.
'Out of an abundance of caution, all other passengers were asked to temporarily deplane while law enforcement conducted a security sweep,' they added.
The flight then 'reboarded and traveled safely to Denver'.
Several online users applauded the officer for handling the situation efficiently and all on his own.
'THAT'S HOW YOU DO IT. No need to explain 50 times why you need to leave the plane,' one commented.
Another said: 'He needs a raise!!!'
Someone else chimed in: 'Got dayum, I love no nonsense cops!!!'
