A passenger plane had its passengers come together to help a man who suffered 'heart problems' on a plane. Sadly, despite the group managing to work together to restart his heart, he later died.

However, the heroic story has gone viral after Richard Gotti spoke about the unity of the passengers on board.

It reads: "I have to share this story! I was travelling on Delta Airlines Flight Number 1772 from Atlanta, Georgia to Phoenix, Arizona when there was a medical emergency on board. An older gentleman began having what appeared to be heart problems, and he went unconscious. I watched strangers from all over the world and every ethnicity come to the help of this man for over an hour! Whether it was chest compressions, starting an IV, helping breathe life into this man, or praying, everyone helped!"

"I listened to shock after shock from the AED machine and still no pulse. No one gave up. I observed people praying and lifting this man up to the Lord in a way that I've never seen before. The crew of Delta Airlines were amazing. They acted in a fast and professional manner! Then, all of a sudden, I observed a guy walking down the aisle. That guy was Tim Tebow. He met with the family as they cried on his shoulder! I watched Tim pray with the entire section of the plane for this man. He made a stand for God in a difficult situation. The plane landed in Phoenix and that was the first time they got a pulse back! Please share this with your friends! Pray for this man and his family, and also thank God that we still have people of faith who in times of difficulty look to the Lord! [sic]"

The flight left Atlanta and was on its way to Phoenix, Arizona, on Sunday when the man began experiencing difficulties.

According to People Magazine, the man's heart was started again thanks to the crew performing CPR. Sadly, he was pronounced dead later on in hospital. Despite the sad ending, it's refreshing to see people coming together making headlines.

We humbly pray that the soul of the man rest in perfect peace (Amen).
