AMERICAN AIRLINES TURBULENCES

I was flying from Miami to London, and while serving beverages in economy, we hit a few mild bumps. It was nothing to be concerned about. After no bumps for about 30 seconds, all hell broke loose. We hit severe turbulence. My coworker and I were both tossed upwards, including our serving carts. I landed on both feet, much to my surprise, and I yelled at passengers to grab my arms to keep me grounded. Mother Nature tossed us around for about 30 seconds before the rocking and rolling subsided. I still don't know how I landed on my feet like a gymnast, because that situation could have been a really ugly, career-ending situation.
