Okay, legit question here.
I have heard the safety speech on the airplane, but I have never practiced the maneuvers which some of you obviously have rehearsed. The only thing I've ever done is verify which emergency exit (in front or behind) is closer to my seat.
In the event of an emergency evacuation on a plane, other than standing up and hoping that nobody runs you down en route to the exit, what else are you supposed to do? I'd never bother with my overhead carryon bags. All I care about is my other half and me. So what should we do?
