Nimi's "Perfectly Natural" Fear of Flying

[@WillHouldy]

I don't have a fear of heights, I have a fear of falling.

[@the_toasted_chee8268]

Remember it’s not the fall that hurts, it’s the sudden stop at the end

[@flytothemoon50]

It's not going to hurt if you instantly die.

To be fair, checking if your plane is a Boeing or an Airbus before booking your ticket is a good idea

What did Airbus do?

Where evidence came up that Boeing turned a blind eye to the safety of their planes. Oh and ofcourse all of the whitsle blowers were suicidal just before the court date lmao.

[@RelativelyBest]

I wouldn't say I'm afraid of heights, exactly, but I do suffer from a bit of height vertigo: Standing high up and looking down messes with my sense of balance and makes it feel like I'm going to fall even when I'm totally safe.

[@Nyperold018]

Next time, don't look at what the owl's watching on the airplane.

[@owlblocksdavid4955]

She should be afraid of the Boeing hitman if her mouth keeps yappin' like that

[@_Myrhl]

being afraid, not of heights, but irrational/improbable events happening that cause you to fall off is scarily relatable

[@mattboy5296]

I mean, I've been watching videos from Green Dot Aviation, Disaster Breakdown and Mentour Pilot for the last couple years now, so I understand the apprehension to flying on planes, especially after recent Boeing events lol.

Given the amount of accidents and deaths that have happened recently due to faulty aircrafts, checking the airplane manufacturer before buying a ticket seems like the sensible thing to do.

[@arisurec]

It's not a fear of heights, it's a fear of hitting the ground at 200 miles per hour.

[@nitricacid2516]

[@dankerbell]

very interesting, i also have a fear of heights but i never had a problem with planes knowing they're safer than cars 💀

[@smugstrawberry2223]

I gave up on being afraid of planes. If it falls it falls, then i will bother to be afraid but up until that point I couldn’t care less.

[@Cyber_kumo]

I’m imagining Nimi acting like BA from The A-Team whenever he’s on a plane. “We’re on a plane! A PLANE! A PLANE!!!”

[@HudaefCares]

HoloJP's Shishiro Botan also has a fear of planes, she also tries logicking it but still prefers travelling longer in a train than the faster plane ride.

[@someguy1507]

Commenting on the train accidents (US perspective): In the US, we have an incredible amount of freight rail. Many of the rails are really really old, and it's more-or-less accepted that every month, a few trains are going to derail and tip over. But since this is freight rail, it's only stuff being transported across the US that gets injured, plus the two-man crew on the inside, which sucks for them but they usually have a decent idea of which parts of their route are highest risk and can brace themselves. For example, in 2022 there were 952 derailments, but only 4 injuries. Passenger rail incidents are much less common. I mean, passenger rail itself is much less common, but even accounting for that.

[@Tampenismall]

[@namvo3013]

So... she was very afraid to fly to Japan?

[@acapitala4936]

VERY afraid probably.

[@scrapox217]

What people need to understand about plane and train crashes is that they are news worthy. They are big things with lots of casualties, but they are orders of magnitude rarer compared to car crashes. Car crashes don't make the news, there's usually one or two casualties with the bad ones and they happen so often that people would get bored of it very quickly. It would be a long enough segment on regional news, but you could have a national news channel that's just listing of car accidents happening all day every day.

[@pax6833]

But also, the plane crashes are uniquely terrifying. Like there are some where it talks about how everyone was pressed into their seats by extreme G-Force as the plane pushed into an uncontrolled dive. Sounds fucking horrifying for a person's last moments.

[@danielmantell8751]

I fear planes because you're locked in a small space next to other people who might try to make small talk with you.

[@DarkMatter1992]

You're not locked in with them, they're locked in with you.

[@haughtygarbage5848]

You know those videos of people doing long international flights with no screens or sleeping? Well that's the only way I can exist inside a plane. I can't sleep because I'm too terrified. And I can't focus on any media because I'm too terrified. What folks call "raw doggin" the flight I consider my average experience.

[@Speed001]

This conversation sounds familiar

[@TheFuture88]

For anyone that has an actual fear of flying, stick with US Carriers. British Airways and Lufthansa are good too but stay away from South American and Asian (besides Singapore and Japan Air) the pilots and techs are a lot more qualified than some of the airlines not mentioned.

[@YronnosClips]

+1 for Singapore

[@Deadite9405]

She better not fly with Shachi, then.

[@sora3]

Nimi doesn't really need to fear planes as you're more likely to be killed in a train rather than an airplane. Heck, even dying from being hit by a car is better chances than dying by plane.

[@atenek9243]

Planes are statistically safer than cars. Unfortunately that doesn't calm most people down.

[@AvgeekRider]

In 2022, 42795 people died in traffic accidents in the USA alone, while only 357 people died in plane crashes GLOBALLY. Aviation is insanely safe, but the media likes to freak out whenever something happens and blow things out of proportion.

Does it still count as fear of heights when the fear only triggers when looking directly down? Like if im looking down but at an angle im good. but once i actually look straight down that's when it starts to kick in.

[@Bravo-oo9vd]

Sad irony is, cars are by far less safe than trains and planes: trains and planes are driven by professionals who are held responsible to always comply with safety protocols so accidents are an exception, while on the road you're virtually guaranteed to meet an idiot who'll endanger everyone just so they can arrive a bit quicker, so accidents are a rule.

[@surfingraichu7594]

Privately owned cars should have been illegal tbh and all that money spent since back then should have been invested in perfecting public train, bus & boat travel.

That's so unreasonable, though. You have times more chances to die from car accident at an Uber drive, than to die from plane crash. The door flying out is even more unlikely - the most dangerous parts of flight are takeoff and landing (and flying over some Eastern European warzones). en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Travel#Safety By any of three metrics (distance traveled, journeys count, hours spent) - you have more chances to die in a car or bicycle accident. Air travel does have more deaths per journey - but this statistic counts very old cases (when there was literally no Air Traffic Control procedures yet) of midair crashes and cases of military shootdown which usually leaves literally no survivors hence driving the death-to-journey ratio for airplanes much higher than by other metrics.
