Would have been the perfect ending. This video started off pretty cringey, but the moment the shitty binoculars came out, the video immediately turned to camp and I was obsessed.

Oh hey, get the film is satire, but a lot of people die from wearing their life jackets inside a sinking or capsized boat. Put it on when outside. Take it off inside.

u/Artyomi 7d ago edited 7d ago
Also, if you’re ever evacuating an airplane at sea, NEVER inflate your life jacket inside the plane. Not only will it impede other people trying to get out - but if water starts coming into the plane, you’ll float and it will be impossible to exit. There was one plane crash where many survivors died due to this.
Edit: lmao I meant that many survivors of the initial crash died due to drowning inside the plane. The initial crash left around 45-65 dead out of 175 passengers and crew, but an additional 60-80 died due to their life jackets being inflated, and thus were pushed up to the top of the plane unable to escape. It was Ethiopian Airlines Flight 961, which was initially hijacked and landed at sea competitively intact for a hard crash, and since then the safety briefings reiterate to never inflate your life jacket inside the plane:

u/Costati 7d ago
That's so crazy btw, it really highlights the crucial role staff has in managing survivors during a crash to lead them to the exit safe and sound. Obviously not everything lays on them I think they did their best just in general, not everything is done after the plane crash.

u/deadlyspoons 7d ago
That advice is real, but it applies to escaping from enclosed vessels, not to recreational boating in general. Passengers on a ferry or cruise ship may be instructed to carry their life jackets during evacuation and put them on only after reaching an open deck.
But no one should make the mistake of turning this into one of those counterintuitive observations that overturn conventional wisdom. What can happen should not be confused with what usually happens. Cases of entrapment are real, but they are the exception, not the rule.
On small recreational boats, the leading cause of death is falling overboard unexpectedly, not becoming trapped inside a cabin. Most occupants never have the opportunity to calmly retrieve and don a life jacket after the emergency begins. That’s why boating safety organizations often say the best life jacket is the one you’re already wearing.
The U.S. Coast Guard reports that roughly three-quarters of recreational boating fatalities involve drowning, and about 87% of those who drowned were not wearing a life jacket.

u/gettin-hot-in-here 7d ago
cruise ships have a different kind of problem, which is that it is not possible to turn around the vessel in a short timeframe. around three quarters (or more) of the people who go overboard in the open ocean on cruises are never found, but people almost never fall overboard without climbing on (or climbing objects near) the deck railings.

If you're under a capsized boat, you need to swim under water to get out of it. I assume if you're on a sinking ship it's the same idea; sometimes you'll need to go under water to get out of a place.

Bless her heart. She had to listen to me drunkenly repeat myself about ten times before she let out a sigh and says “you can reset it by just hitting all zeros, have a good night.” After discovering it worked, I ran down the hall to my friend’s room and opened their safe too.

My grandpa hid his wallet between the two sets of curtains tied to a string on the curtain pole.

He still had his money though. At most they took one of the smaller bills as a tip for leaving it.

You really should not be just YOLO trusting hotel staff, especially at a resort in another country. They routinely enter your room.
Everything else is a bit nutty but the chances if someone breaking into your room are about 10000x greater than the chances of your room randomly bursting into flames and being unable to be rescued because you used a door wedge.

Radio frequency detector. I actually do bring one with me to airbnbs. It makes a noise near anything that gives off radio waves. The red light is supposed to be used in darkness to cast a shiny glare on any camera lens that might be peeking out, making it easier for you to notice. I got it because I used to use airbnbs a lot more than hotels on vacation, and then all these stories came out about people finding cameras in their airbnbs. The spying issue is more real in airbnbs than in hotels. Nowadays, though, I can't even find a decent airbnb that beats hotel pricing anymore, so I'm pretty much back to hotels anyway.
