Ex flight attendant here, the reason you have to have items stowed, tables up and seat up during take off is partly because you don’t want to fly into the tray table or your laptop in a rejected takeoff or and emergency landing, but also because you need to (according to regulations which is tested in manufacturing) be able to evacuate the plane in 90 seconds with half the doors operational. This means that you can’t have bags, tray tables and large items in the way because they will slow down the evacuation.
The reason you can have an IPad but not a laptop is because you have to draw the line somewhere, you can’t make people not use phones or books but a laptop is large enough and definable enough that you draw the line there. iPads with keyboards and such are in a bit of a gray area, the official limit is over 1kg but it’s mostly up to the flight attendant if they deem it to be large enough to cause a delay in an evacuation.
These things do happen, and while the crew does their absolute best to make everything as safe as possible things fall through the cracks and when that happens robust and enforced safety regulations are there to save as many lives as possible.
Also, the myth about heads down being to break your neck for insurance purposes is very much false, if you put your legs up you’ll immediately break them on impact and won’t be able to get out of the (probably) burning airplane and therefore die. If you sit normally your upper body will fly down to your knees with very strong force and you’ll probably get whiplash. That’s why you already want to have your head there on impact.
The best thing you can do is listen to your flight attendants, they know exactly what both you and they need to do in an emergency and their main job is to keep you alive.
All this is based on my experience with EASA (European) regulations.
Pin this comment please!!! Such good info 🙌
I was coming here to say it has to do with making the plane as fast as possible to evacuate in case of fire.
This was so informative, thank you!
If you want to see the evacuation test of the Airbus A380, it's on youtube if you search for it! It's an impressive display of what an effective evacuation would be like, and very much the ideal to strive for in your role as a flight attendant, although in real life the passengers are usually a lot less prepared. And if you're interested in safety procedures I'm sure the cabin crew on your next flight will be happy to answer any questions.
Thank you!!!!
Shane gonna be rocking the sleepy time tea bear fit
This just reminded me of Mr. Bean
THIS 🤣🤣🤣
When Shane reminded everyone to double check to make sure that we’re subscribed, I double checked, because I was like “man, I watch these videos every week. There’s no way I’m not subscribed“. And lo and behold, I was not subscribed.
How do you check if a new video is out if you're not subbed to the channel
All seriousness right now, you made me do the same thing😂🤣
SAME!!
Same, but that's because I didn't know it was a separate channel!
Matt is the greatest gift to this podcast
I was going to say something to the effect of "Matt isn't a side character anymore."
For Real 😉
We need a Matt cam
He’s so funny and also structuring the podcast and making games. Putting in work
Petition to give Matt a camera shot whenever he makes an insightful comment! I’ve been thinking it for a while but this episode really did it for me
Great ep as always guys! ❤️
I think if they do this, it will give the setup away but I 100% agree they should do this.
No, he exists like a Stevie (from Good Mythical Morning) figure in the podcast! (Although, he could be like the sidekick guy on Jimmy Fallon)
They’ve never really cared about that before though! They’ve shown crew in too many spirits and whatnot.. even if they just put a curtain behind him and make him a tiny little screen in the corner, it would be fine with me! 😂
It just would be nice to see his face when he makes a comment… even if he’s a tiny little box in the corner or something 😭
Yeeesss please
Not Steven drinking his sleepy girl mocktail every night 😂😴
Here in Scotland, we'd call shanes new hat a "wee willie winkie" hat. 😂😂
Even better.
Wonder how you feel about his hair 😉💯😂
Upstairs & downstairs in his nightgown! 😂
@@Sassymouse88 🤣🤣🙌
That is the most Scottish thing I've heard and I LOVE it 😂😂😂
Ryan’s hair is giving 70s game show contestant. 🤔
I’m loving the long hair
Shane's is 90s boy band!!! 😂
Any particular 70’s game show contestant??? 😏
I was thinking the same thing. 😳
He looks like Rodney Alcala
Mondays are sm better now 🎉
I'm a housekeeper for best western and surprisingly our pillows our branded BW pillows they come in varying standards depending on the hotel you are staying at. The best person to ask about what pillow that the hotel uses is going to be the housekeeping manager or housekeeping supervisor. Front desk will not know because cross training for front desk and housekeeping hardly ever happens. So some hotels have branded pillows so I'd also look on the websites of the hotels that you've stayed cause you can possibly order it online as well.
Thank you ❤️
As an ex front desk agent for holiday inn express, i can back this up.
As a current front desk agent who has worked at my hotel for over 7 years, absolutely can confirm I haven't the slightest clue what brand any of our bedding is lmao!
@@SirensAfterMidnight yeah same, when I used to work front desk and I didn't know something I used to ask my manager. But sometimes they don't even know
Ryan your Tarzan yell scared the shit out of my cat
I once accidentally made someone leave a theater - two guys were sitting a seat away from me and would not stop talking throughout Hereditary… so I leaned over asked him if he could move because the strong aroma of his cologne was going to give me an asthma attack and the two guys just left 😂😂😂 not my intention, but win-win.
an unintentional Karen
@@ImTakingFlight for the good of the theater
@@ImTakingFlightDo you call Ryan or Shane a Karen for getting loud theater talkers to leave? Seems you’re an unexpected incel.
I loved the “who said that” game!!
Me too! Fantastic episode
I am DYING at the Disney world story
I got in a fight with an old man on a scooter at the Disney World parade! 😹
Matt would actually be a great game show host. That was such a good game!
I agree. Love his voice and love his style.
He said one time it was his dream job.
I have never heard this middle seat gets armrest rule before and now I'm mentally going through every flight I've been on in my 28 years to figure out if I wrongfully used an armrest when I wasn't supposed to
I didn’t know about this either and I’ve definitely used an armrest when not in the middle seat but then again I don’t really mind only having one armrest when I sit in the middle seat
Routine is key. I have insomnia and the only thing that has helped me is the routine of putting my phone away and taking melatonin and cozy rain sounds. It takes some time but after a few weeks sleep comes easier.
oh.. this works? I just name my insomnia Jeremy and vibe with him
Thank you for this! I struggle with sleep too and I'll try this next
Oh my sweet summer child! Jealous of these days! Yes for starter sleep struggles this is a good start. Also do not take too high of a dose of melatonin or it is counter productive!
@@Nenernener123 wait, u jealous of the hallucinations and the breakdowns?
I recently learned that melatonin doesn't work nearly as well if you take it too soon after eating. Apparently 2 hours between last bite and melatonin is recommended. I've been using melatonin sporadically/on and off for like 8 years and never knew this
A flight attendant on tiktok said because it’s the way they are trained to be able to get everyone off the plane in 90 seconds in case of a fire. You’ve got about 2 minutes before fiery inferno death
I know the game didn't work quite as intended, but I thought it was fun. I'm a Watcher fan enough to recognize some of these quotes, but not really enough to solve them either. So I really identified with the cast almost-but-not-quite remembering some of these moments.
I've used a U shaped pregnancy pillow for years now as my main pillow. Especially as a side sleeper. My arms don't go numb anymore and my hips get their support too. It's amazing having that thing. I sleep horribly without it
That sound that Matt made after Steven said he drinks cherry juice every night killed me 🤣😭
Shane is right! If it's "rude" to lean back on a plane, the seats shouldn't be designed to lean back! I'm tired of being judged for using the features of a product 😆
I need jeans to retain their fit, aint no way they are still holding my hips after MONTHS of wear without washing. Also petition for the boys to getting matching pajama sets for a cozy podcast episode
Absolutely LOVED I Know Who Said it gameshow!
OHHHH now shanes insta post of his scrooge outfit makes sense
I need "Milk Me, Doc" on some piece of merch
actually I need them on boxers
i'm with ryan and matt, idk why the leaning back on a plane infuriates me so much but it always does
52:29 there's nothing in the world that justifies abusing employees who work in emotionally and physically labor-intensive jobs like retail, food service, amusements parks, etc. i always appreciate when other customers stick up for me because i could lose my job if i stick up for myself and brown-nosing managers who just wanna climb the corporate ladder so they let customers scream at them with impunity. don't be an asshole, point blank period.
I was on a 8 hour flight to Italy and the people sitting in front of us leaned allllll the way back 10 minutes into it and even during meal service. I wanted to end it all.
That sounds awful I’m sorry.
Shane’s passive aggressive airplane etiquette is quintessential Midwestern
ooOo, airplane etiquette tip !
always wear a mask 😷
fr though, we're still in a pandemic & we should be taking COVID precautions in everyday life, but *especially* on public transport when you're shoved in a small space with people
Tray tables during takeoff and landing is because emergency evacuation is more likely during takeoff and landing and getting out of your row with a tray table down is not going to happen.
1000% on board for watcher night night cap merch
speaking of george of the jungle, they didn't ask the city for permission to hang off of the bridge the way they had him doing so disney essentially endangered brendan fraser's life AND fraser apologized for the stunt years later because of the traffic/panic shooting that scene caused due to people thinking an actual person was hanging off of the bridge. it was so bad that oprah's segment was interrupted to broadcast the mayhem.
Shane should get suitjamas and wear them on a pod with the flannel night cap
Love this podcast just friends having fun. They have great chemistry 🎉
the talk about body pillows made me research about it more and i just found out that the one i use is specifically called a "bolster". all this time i've been calling it "long cylindrical pillow that you hug when you sleep" lol
Everyone ignoring Matt’s banger of a pizza bagel reference 🥺
The fact they said to check if you're subscribed, and I assumed but wasn't whattt. Subscribed now. Felt like they could actually see me
Ryan getting a tattoo??? IM SO EXCITED FOR THAT
I use a maternity pillow. Life changing
I am absolutely making a flannel nightcap for daytime wear
As a side sleeper, I highly recommend the cube pillow! I have the one that's wider than the cube, but it's a great purchase! Sweet dreams 😴
Many five stars hotels in the USA get their pillows from Pacific Coast Feather Company. They rebrand them. The Down Around pillow is very popular. But personally I think the Double Down Around is the best price to comfort ratio. I don’t work for the company, I just know the hospitality industry. They sell to the public on their website. I buy them for my household and they hold up.
Random pitch: Top 5 beatdown of TV theme songs.
I feel like Ryan would call Fresh Prince a banger and I need confirmation.
That would be such a good one!!
Yessss!
Ryan’s Tarzan yell was straight up old man 0rgasm
Matt, idk if you ever go back through and read comments on old videos, but man. I LOVE this podcast. Thank you for all your work editing it and your little comments whenever you dip in.
I actually really liked the game!! You should totally try it again
I literally spilled a glass of water right on the crotch of my jeans when Ryan talked about peeing in your pants when you’re a kid. Talk about foresight
i saw shane post a pic wearing his hat and he looks like a character off of the polar express
I wasn’t subscribed now I am!!
Ryan’s first Tarzan yell try just gave me a flashback to Return to Innocence by Enigma. 10/10 stars no notes.
Hands down my favorite episode so far! 😂. And we need a follow up on the sleeping cap!
I agree. This episode was banger topic after banger topic. Capped off by that amazing game by Matt Real.
My pup used to do that, he would hold his blanket in his mouth and make muffins when he fell asleep all the time 🥰
Awww 🥰 ❤
I worked split shifts at a restaurant years ago and ate half a pound of cherries when they were in season. I would be falling asleep right before having to go back to work 😂😅
The return of blond Shane
My bernadoodle kneads and bites pillows too! I’m so glad she is not the only one! She loves this one shark plushie I have and will sit there and cry until I give it to her!
That sounds so cute ❤❤❤❤
I love that Ryan also needs to find the correct neck to bed space ration.
Another hilarious and entertaining episode! 😂✈ It's always a blast tuning in to hear your take on everyday dilemmas like airplane etiquette and the eternal quest for the perfect pillow. And Shane, the pajama connoisseur, never fails to surprise us with his ever-growing collection!
BLANE IS BACK? The timeline is confusing me lmaooo
I think you mean fred and shaggys biological son
Shane’s hair near the end is giving major Cloud Strife energy
Look forward to every Monday night thanks guys
Steven's never been more of a scorpio than in this episode
About pillows! I hate the idea of bad germs where I sleep so when I wash my bedding, I remove the pillowcases and give them a good tumble in the dryer on hot to kill germs! It’s great
I BOUGHT THAT EXACT HAT for my partner this Christmas!! Aran has AMAZING products.
In the late 90s, the Levis store in Manhattan had a soak tank for customers to use.
I genuinely look forward to this podcast every Monday!!! PLS NEVER STOP!!!
People are absolutely feral on airplanes, and I hate it. Sit in the seat you were assigned, keep to yourself, and for the love of god, keep your damn shoes on!
I 100% agree with Ryan and Matt about the leaning back
Ryan Looks like Pauly Shore
or Rob Schneider
I have been listening / watching podcasts since 2006. You guys do all the right things, I love this show!
HAPPY MONDAY PEEPS!!
Can you make the edges of your thumbnail a different color other than red? I've been accidentally skipping episodes cause i thought i already watched it.
PLEASE keep the watcher podcast, its my fav thing to listen while im working
I am going back to all the videos to liked and is already subscribe!
Also loving this new game section by matt
Loved the game! Would love to see another round! beautiful stuff.
Me too
Amazing episode!! Steven you’re right I take tart cherry and melatonin together. Works wonders!
Ive been looking forward to todays upload
I agree with Ryan and Matt. Shane loses the etiquette test for real. 😂
Finally, someone told Ryan that mic stands exist.
I completely agree with Ryan and Matt. They sound like awesome people I wish more people were like as far as courtesy goes.
I wish i could show yall my pinkie on my left hand bc it looks broken asf but it’s just like that LMAOOOOO
3-4 uses in the winter. 1 use in the summer. It gets hot in the summer and I can't stand wearing something I sweated it because sweat stinks. I don't want to stink.
love that picture ryan drew XD
Loved the game, great episode
YIPEE NEW PODWATCHER 😁
doctors get paid well for what they do. You shouldn't care if he's getting tired of you lol, I bet he's not tired of your insurance checks.
My bad Shane, I am subscribed (now) 😅
Thank you Shane, I’ve been watching the pod from the beginning but only now realized I wasn’t actually subscribed
We recently bought some wool sweaters from Aran and they're really nice. I bet the hat is too!
I’ve broken my toe before and they just had me tape the broken one to the one beside it for a couple weeks haha
I'm so on with ryan on getting uncontrollably angry if someone is being rude and if i go onto confront them. So i mostly avoid confrontations because the perpetrator will act like the innocent victim will people will blame me for that
Steve with that amount of attachment its a chou Chou pillow
1:56 i just know this moment will keep ryan awake at night lmfao
100% thought I was subscribed because I'm subscribed to main, but no! You're reminder was helpful. Love y'all. Goodnight.
As a big guy, I always try to approach situations with respect and kindness, two or three times. However, if the person/people refuse to reciprocate... then I go from teddy bear to grizzly bear. Some people mistake kindness for weakness so I don't feel too bad after I've reached that point.
RYAN! I have that pillow! It’s literally THE BEST!!!!! It’s worth it, but you need to be in first class or exit row for more room to lean over. (I’m 5’5”) Mine has a hole in it abd I am heart broken. I will be buying a replacement. It’s the best. A phone abd an iPad mini fits in there to watch movies in private too. WORTH IT!
I love this game, I hope you play it again.
The hat conversation just reminds me of the John Mullaney bit "give me a candle for looking in the mirror and a floppy hat. And I'll tremble off to bed in my long victorian night gown."
i loved 'who said that'. i recognised a couple of quotes but its funny to see the boys guessing
I'm with Steven! I've had a body pillow I bought with my Ex gf I've had it for 23 years still fluffy hasn't lost its shape or density 😂😂💀
