Yep, here is the news report from BuzzFeed:
A Delta Plane Plunged Nearly 30,000 Feet Midflight As Terrified Passengers Grabbed Oxygen Masks

Posted on September 19, 2019, at 3:09 p.m.A Delta plane traveling from Atlanta to Fort Lauderdale on Wednesday made an emergency landing in Tampa, Florida, after plunging nearly 30,000 feet in less than seven minutes, sparking fear and panic among passengers.
Brandon Tomlinson, who was on the flight with his 1-year-old son and his mother, told BuzzFeed News that it happened about 35 minutes after takeoff.
"All of a sudden the oxygen masks dropped out and you started hearing this real howling sound, which I think was the engine because the pilot was diving to get below," he said. "It was like a roller coaster as we were going down. And you can see in the actual flight attendants’ eyes that this was real, this wasn’t something to mess around with."
Tomlinson said he put his oxygen mask on, then his son's, and then had to help his mom calm down as other passengers were crying.
"We all sort of thought this is how it’s going to end," he said.

People were too busy texting their final rubber jungle messages to put on the masks...

No one in the picture is wearing a mask so it's probably taken after they were told to remove the masks.
