Bright green fluid gushed from Miami International Airport ceiling on July Fourth, flooding concourse 

A pipe leak in Concourse G caused the fluorescent fluid to flow down from the ceiling at 9 a.m.

The halls of Miami International Airport weren't flowing with red, white and blue on the Fourth of July — but instead a bright lime green.

A pipe leak in Concourse G caused the fluorescent fluid to flow down from the ceiling at 9 a.m. E.T., the airport said. Crews responded immediately and determined that the liquid was not hazardous.

The spill was cleaned up within an hour and a half, the airport said on X.

"We would like to thank our passengers in Concourse G for their patience & understanding this morning," the post said.

Greg Chin, communications director for the Miami-Dade Aviation Department, said in a follow-up statement that the mysterious solution was actually just water.

"The liquid was water from the AC system with a green dye in it so if there is ever a leak it can traced to its source," Chin said.
