The Shocking Impact of a Seat Malfunction on Airplane Safety

·Jun 19, 2025 04:41 PM·

I've never been afraid of flying, but stuff like this is just so crazy. Like, here is a multi $100 million machine and the thing that brings it down is a seat malfunction.... This plane design has had a perfect record for over a decade and a seat is the cause of the first deadly crash. Deadly crash... Unbelievable. ***CITATION NEEDED -> Not a verified source.

this is actually why i hate flying. i know very small things can cause massive problems, even if it’s very unlikely to happen.

You know what, I rarely do this, but you are right, what I shared I cannot find a corroborating source.... I always check before I share, and this time I didn't. Apologies.

Honestly wanted to know just because my partner is also hyper-aware of these crashes and wanted to send it to him! Thanks for double checking

Erica I saw the first episode of season 2. I was confused by the premise of the show. But it was interesting! Did you watch season 1?

Ty (CX Collective) yes! I loved season 1. It is super weird. If you watch the first episode of the series it will explain the whole premise!

Ok! I will have to do that. I do love weird shows (i.e. Severance and Black Mirror)... I'm fascinated by aviation so I gave S2 a try and walked away with a giant question mark over my head. 😅
