Following these simple instructions can save passengers from air crash injuries

A pilot shared some easy and simple instructions for passengers to follow in order to escape life-threatening injuries in an air crash.

The pilot named Dave Inch, who captains a Boeing 737 jet, took to the social media website Quora for showing the safety procedures which may save lives and things.

“Remove everything sharp from your pockets, loosen your belt and remove your tie or scarf and remove high heeled shoes,” he wrote. “Take glasses off for landing so they don’t fly off and are available to help you see your way out if you need them.”

He also mentioned that the passengers should not open the aircraft’s doors and windows till the flight attendants give the clearance.

“Have a piece of cloth (preferably damp) to assist in breathing if there is smoke – if there is smoke during evacuation, stay as low as possible. If [it’s] a water landing, do not inflate your life vest until you are at the doorway – if you inflate it and the aircraft fills with water, you will get trapped on the ceiling and not be able to swim underwater to get out.”

It is to be noted that the flight attendants disclose all the safety and evacuation briefing before the aircraft takes off.

Thousands of people have died in air crash, some of them do not follow the safety procedures in order to leave unscathed.
