Seriously, a flight safety video has absolutely no right to be this catchy :D
- teeray 2y agoThis is the one I remember the best, and it’s been years since I’ve seen it. Put something in a catchy song and my brain will remember it… this is how I learned like 50-some odd digits of Pi[0] [0] https://youtu.be/eDiSYp_51iY https://youtu.be/eDiSYp_51iY

- encyclic 2y agoSame here, it was one that captured the vibe of the Virgin America perfectly and the only one I actually recall watching. It was directed by Jon M Chu, who subsequently directed Crazy Rich Asians, In The Heights, Wicked, and more.
- xbar 2y agoPerfectly said. This one was a banger. I searched for it in the article's list of videos with greater than 1M views but the author failed to capture it.
- SilasX 2y agoYes! I loved that one! I was singing it afterward. ("Thank you for your attention, this robot rap is over") I'm impressed that they were able to slip in a jab about the ridiculousness of having to tell you how to buckle a seatbelt.
- freshchilled 2y agoI used to fly Virgin America twice a week. That song would get stuck in my head every time I checked in. I still can sing most of it. "In the unlikely event we need to get you outside, these exits come equipped with an inflatable slide..."
- grishka 2y agoI've only flown Virgin America once. In 2014. Yet here I am in 2025 posting about it on HN. The selectiveness of my memories is weird.
- hooper 2y agoThis immediately played in my head when I read the headline.
