You know the drill. A couple of flight attendants stand in the aisle of an airplane and tediously go over all the safety rules of the plane. Or, a flashy, mostly humorous, somewhat extravagant video is shown with some sort of theme - celebrities, the '80s, paying homage to a particular movie, whatever - in lieu of the live announcement.

According to Traveller.com.au, the five-minute video includes an oxygen mask demonstration at the Museum of Old and New Art in Hobart, a life-jacket demonstration at Bondi Icebergs and an emergency slide demonstration at Josephine Falls in Queensland, among numerous other sites.
