However, there is one omission that passengers often overlook when wearing rescue clothes when the plane crashed, what is it?

As revealed by an unnamed flight attendant on Reddit, passengers often ignore listening to the attendant's instructions when the plane is in trouble. Specifically, they often pull or bulge the rescue shirt before the attendant's request.

This is very dangerous, when these bulged shirts can be "culprits" that cause them to stay at the seat or in front of the emergency exit, unable to exit the aircraft.

"Absolutely not inflate the life jacket before escaping from the plane if there is an incident," the flight attendant said.

"Passengers often have the mentality of extracting life jackets early and will make them safer if they accidentally fall into the sea. But this carries a lot of risks."

Reversing the Ethiopian airline incident on November 23, 1996, up to 125 out of 175 passengers on the flight died when trapped.

According to the autopsy, the passengers were unable to escape the compartment because of their bulging rescue shirt. And as the plane sank under the sea, the water level in the cabin became higher and higher, engulfing the ill-fated passengers.

Listening and monitoring the attendant's instructions is a good thing to do before the plane takes off.

Before the unfortunate incident, tracking the escape video tutorials is an essential thing for every passenger. This helps them to cooperate best with the attendants in the worst cases.

In addition, passengers can protect themselves by counting the distance between their seats to the exit. If there is an accident and are asked to leave the plane immediately, they will find the fastest way to get to the door, in case people are too chaotic.
