Only a few seconds, please calm down, remember the correct order and how to put it.

It is a flight attendant who will explain with a casual gesture before take-off.

Today, the lack of knowledge of how to use the oxygen mask correctly used by a picture and the dangers that lurk there.

According to Bobby Raleigh, former cabin crew said on twitter "Passengers are wearing an oxygen mask coming down from the top when an emergency situation, but most of them are mistakenly wearing them."

It, not a joke, it's concerned about life. At an altitude of 15,000 feet, human beings suffer from breathing difficulties. It seems that it becomes impossible to supply enough oxygen into the blood, resulting in " hypoxia ". If that happens, it is said that it loses consciousness for tens of seconds.

If you just want to lose consciousness, still not good. According to the Owner Pilot Association, symptoms are such as nausea, anxiety, narrowing of the visual field, headache, fatigue, dizziness, blurred vision, abnormal skin sensation, numbness and mental confusion etc. If this happens, it will interfere with evacuation activities of other passengers.

At this time, the air pressure in the 1380 flight fell sharply as the window broke, and it was about the same as outside air. Then the air becomes dilute, resulting in a sharp decrease in the amount of oxygen in the lungs. So it is important to cover the nose and mouth with a mask with an oxygen concentration of 100% and send oxygen-rich air to the lungs. If you do so, you can maintain consciousness and take evacuation actions according to the instructions of the cabin crew.

Also, the order of attaching it also important. Even if you have a person with you or your child, please attach it to you first.

In order to protect precious life, listen to the cabin crew, watch safe video without leaving a word.
