You have no clue how little some people fly, and some may only fly a few times in a lifetime. The safety briefing is for them, not jaded geniuses that don’t count the seat rows to the nearest emergency exit.
Survivorship bias. “We have been doing this safety thing forever, but nothing bad ever happens. Let’s stop doing the safety thing!“
See also, “why pay for firefighters if there’s so few fires incidents on our city?”, and also “I’ve never been in a car crash, no need to use a seat belt.”
Yet yours is exactly the kind of stupid rethoric politicians use to convince constituents of defunding emergency and security services. Congratulations on being part of the problem.
Exactly, it’s not there for the unforseen improbable plane crash. It’s there for the moments people statistically actually die a preventable death, as in fucking up and misbehaving during evacuations, stampeding others to death or dying of asphyxia because they were too stupid to listen to the flight crew.
Interestingly, statistics reveal that over 95 percent of passengers involved in a plane crash survive, underscoring the importance of preparation and awareness in ensuring safety during flights.
Wrong on all counts.

that’s not what I’m saying, I’m saying even if you’ve never flown before your dying need the safety briefing because it’s so unlikely 😂

Every regulation is written in blood.
the probability of a fire is much higher and firefighters are underpaid, people need to care more about fires, and less about plane crashes…
similarly: we need more air traffic controllers and they should be paid more…

the safety briefing is the ambulance at the bottom of the cliff…
the safety briefing doesn’t effect the probability of a crash…

Wrong again, genius. You need to stop, now.
I think the higher survival rate of plane crashes is actually a bad thing as that just incentivises crashing the plane 😅
SMH
Then it should be fine for the people who have heard the briefing dozens of times to keep playing on their phone.
I’m sure they’re the same self-centered people exiting the burning aircraft with their carry-on bags.
