On July 4, a bright green liquid flows from the ceiling at Miami International Airport.

On July 4, travelers at Miami International Airport saw more bright green than red, white and blue when a mysterious liquid flooded Concourse G of the airport.

The light green substance came out of a broken pipe and was not dangerous, the Florida airport said after the incident on X.

“Crews were immediately dispatched to investigate and it was determined that the fluid from the leak was not hazardous,” the airport said in a post. “Cleanup was completed within 90 minutes.”

It was later determined that the liquid was just green-colored water, Greg Chin, communications director for the Miami-Dade Aviation Department, told NBC News.

“The fluid was water from the air conditioning system that had been mixed with a green dye, so if there is ever a leak, the source can be identified,” Chin said.

This Independence Day, travel records are expected to be broken: The American Automobile Association estimates that 71 million people are expected to travel more than 50 miles from home this week.

About 4 million of these travelers are expected to come from Florida.

In April, a passenger at the same airport was stopped by security personnel when he was discovered to have hidden snakes in his trousers.
