How does that work? Do they have scales on board?
Ultimately, pax are nothing but weight when it comes to getting them off in this situation.

Same as tail tips when cargo is loaded or unloaded in the incorrect way, same can happen when passengers are unloaded in the wrong way in these circumstances.

No scales, just a centre of gravity fore/aft, left/right.
