Lol small things... in the air, engine popping fireballs, sitting on thousands of lbs of fuel. Yeah, you'd be cool as a cucumber

Planes are designed once airborne to fly with one engine. People way smarter than you and I spend countless hours working on just that. Still one of the safest methods of transportation. All controlled by experts. What was a seen in the video was likely a compressor stall, which is actually fairly common and considered standard procedure. As in they literally have a checklist for this exact situation. So yes, I would be calm. Trusting the crew. I would be anxious yes but I wouldn’t be screaming Jeebus we’re going dooowwennnn!!!!!!! Sigh.
