JetBlue Flight Attendant's Viral Safety Demo Has Passengers Amused

A flight attendant's hilariously-animated safety demo has passengers and TikTok viewers cackling.

The enactment was captured on a JetBlue flight by TikTok user Joey MacNeer, on Thursday. "Give this guy a raise," he captioned the video, which already has 760,000 views.

MacNeer told Insider the flight traveled from Newark to Tampa that same day and the flight attendant, Peter, "made every second of the flight great."

While demonstrating how to use the safety vest, the attendant turns it into a sauve dance routine, with exaggerated, wide-eyed mime-like expressions as he pulls the buckle tight.

When the pilot warns users not to inflate their vests inside the aircraft, the attendant shakes his finger at the vest admonishingly. He ends the routine by hilariously dashing out of the aisle, off-camera, to indicate the two exit doors.

"He needs to be the face of airlines for every and any commercial," MacNeer told Insider.

The comments were overwhelmingly positive, with many noting the reaction on the plane seemed relatively tame in comparison to how hard viewers were cracking up watching it online.

"How did people not laugh I'd be hollering," one wrote. Another added: "I actually understand what the pilot was saying with this guy."

MacNeer said Peter's presence and service added to his and the other passengers' flying experience.

"He was able to talk to every different passenger as if they were friends. I actually think nobody could not like this man," he said. "Just overachieving from takeoff to touchdown."

However, some sensed some exasperation in the attendant's performance, given the monotony of having to repeat the same demo over and over again.

"That's a great employee who's fed up with his job," one wrote. Another said, "I think tipping culture is out of control but I'd slip this guy a $5 for his theatrics."

JetBlue did not immediately respond to Insider's request for comment.
