Delta Safety Video

Delta Airlines' new safety video. Its message of togetherness and worldly connectivity is very inspiring. And representation of so many diverse groups (including at least one individual with a hearing aid... did you all catch that?) is wonderful to see.

And those new Zac Posen uniforms... *damn* don't they look sweet!

powerful moment when the guy opens the safety vest packaging

A cochlear implant, even. As the father of a hearing impaired kid, it's nice to see that.

The robotic presentation and 1950’s sci fi style uniforms reminds me of near future utopian societies in movies and books.

I watched this whole thing expecting that you slipped yourself into the video as part of some pentest job or you were going to hack the plane with a glass of whiskey or something. I'd like to cash in my bamboozle insurance please.

I wish in safety videos they would actually inflate the life vest.

Is that the new Star Trek uniform?! 😮🤣

If you haven't done so, read the story of Land's End development of the purple uniforms and the claims they cause sickness - crazy stuff. I wonder if these are actual employees.

Mandatory safety videos are an art form of their own

I usually fly KLM from the Netherlands. Their safety video is done by stop-motion filming hand-painted on Delft blue pottery tiles with all the instructions. Not as diverse, but you really can't go more Netherlands than that. And it's also a a TON of work and detail.

I'm wondering if the cochlear implant is also in part a nod towards Delta's partnership with LSTN, where the proceeds went directly towards the Starkey Hearing Foundation... ;)

Delta's 80s style safety video is going to be hard to beat...

[One-Cut]

What if there was a pop-quiz after the video, and if you failed, you'd be kicked off the flight...

My first thought is "Which section of the plane has that much legroom"... none. Not even first class. American's is even worse. Maybe if we tell people they have plenty of space they'll believe it?

[Steinninn]

Why don't I ever watch these on the airplane but I watched this one?

[clockguy]

Reminds me of the TV show 'V" where the aliens are trying to take over the Earth by being polite and 'smiley".

Is it possible to have a straight white male give a public announcement anymore

[billydoidge]

Thank god they replaced that god-awful meme one

[MinecrafterPiano]

I wonder why they don't inflate the jackets in the security video. Perhaps it's due to the thought that children will take one out to do inflate it.

Seriously though, how much time do you waste policing your comment section from wrongthink?

that dude @ 2:47 in the chair is so hot
