Buckle Up, Seriously

You might be wondering just how safe planes are. Before taking off, flight attendants go through a number of safety checks to help put your mind at ease. Still, some passengers fear what happens once the plane in the air and the pre-flight checklist is done.

Planes have been designed to be incredibly sturdy. Most are even able to withstand being struck by lightning without taking damage. That doesn’t mean you should ignore the “buckle up” signal when it gets turned on, though.
