Plane Passengers Prioritizing Their Luggage in Firey Flight Emergency Sparks Fury
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. A viral video of an American Airlines flight evacuation is drawing sharp condemnation online after several passengers were seen retrieving their luggage amid a fire emergency. The clip, first shared in a Reddit thread by user emoemokade, shows chaotic scenes as flight attendants (FAs) attempt to guide travelers off the aircraft while smoke fills the cabin, reportedly from an overheated laptop battery. Yet, despite urgent calls to evacuate, numerous passengers fumble with overhead compartments, refusing to leave their carry-ons behind. Newsweek has reached out to American Airlines for comment. In response to an invitation to comment from Newsweek, the Foundation for Aviation Safety identified the clip as being recorded during the emergency evacuation of an American Airlines 737 MAX airplane in Denver. There was a fire in the landing gear and smoke entered the airplane, the non-profit organization told Newsweek. Stock image: Passengers standing in the aisle of a plane. Stock image: Passengers standing in the aisle of a plane. iStock / Getty Images Plus 'Tragedy waiting to happen' Ed Pierson, the foundation's executive director, said that Boeing 737 MAX airplanes have been having "lots of problems" with landing gear issues, such as brake clips cracking and low pressure in the tires. "We believe this is a tragedy waiting to happen and just one of over 30 serious defects in MAX airplanes that we have been tracking and reporting," Pierson said. "Boeing and the [Federal Aviation Administration] should be required to explain what they are doing to fix each of these defects and the public should be monitoring progress." The director said that emergency evacuations can happen for a wide variety of reason. Unfortunately, despite receiving detailed briefings by FAs on how to calmly evacuate, some passengers may panic and act irrationally, like stopping to grab their luggage or trying to go against the flow of people exiting the plane, risking the safety of others trying to get out, he said. 'How would you react?' "It is easy for people to criticize these bad decisions, but you have to ask yourself how would you react if you were sitting in your seat, the plane just aborted takeoff and you were now dealing with people yelling, smoke, saw flames and knew you were standing on tanks containing jet fuel? "Hopefully you and your fellow passengers would stay calm and move swiftly during the evacuation." 'Pay the price' Observers denounced the behavior seen in the video and called for penalties amid more than 3,300 comments on Reddit within two days. "People are going to die before they start following rules," a critic warned, while another called for accountability: "That German family deserves to be banned by that airline for five years. They refused to comply. "Doesn't matter if the battery was out, they ignored the FAs. They held up other passengers. They should pay the price." The incident echoes earlier concerns about deteriorating behavior in flight cabins. As reported by Newsweek, another viral video showed a young passenger on a domestic U.S. flight darting up the aisle to the galley while the plane was still taxiing. "The [flight attendants] were completely stunned—like, full buffering mode," wrote Reddit user gynot44, who witnessed the scene. "My 6-year-old nephew knows not to stand up while the plane is taxiing... I have to chalk this up to entitled and just not caring." The Foundation for Aviation Safety went on to tell Newsweek that the FAA is not doing enough to protect ground evacuations. The administration does not have regulations on minimum seat pitch, meaning the distance between rows of seats, or the width of the seats, according to Executive Director Pierson. "Instead, the FAA relies on an outdated 90-second evacuation standard that has been widely criticized because it doesn't reflect realistic evacuation scenarios, or the current passenger population," Pierson continued. "Many airlines have reduced seat pitch and width over the past few decades, while passengers, on average, have become larger. We believe shrinking seats can hinder emergency evacuations, increasing the risk of injuries and fatalities." 'Challenge the public' Pierson said that, "perhaps the FAA could challenge the public into coming up with a design for a locking mechanism that could be retrofitted to airplanes that would allow the pilots and flight attendants to automatically lock all storage bins. Then people wouldn't have the option." Newsweek has contacted emoemokade for comment via Reddit, as well as American Airlines for comment.

Eight World War One pillboxes are Grade II listed
A rare semi-circular bunker-like structure is among eight World War One pillboxes in Norfolk that have been granted Grade II listed status. The concrete buildings were built in Norfolk between 1916 and 1918, designed to protect a stretch of English coast from a potential German sea invasion, including the semi-circular one at Bacton Wood. They still have their original steel doors, gun loop shutters and white-painted interiors, according to Historic England. Its East of England regional director Tony Calladine said they were "a reminder of a time when determined communities prepared to defend Britain during the Great War". Listed buildings are buildings of special architectural or historic interest with legal protection. All but one of the newly-listed pillboxes are in the North Walsham area and they are: Two defending the Common Road and Bradfield Beck crossing point at Bradfield Common A rare semi-circular pillbox at Bacton Wood, guarding a canal bridge Two circular pillboxes at White Horse Common at the Edbridge Mill crossing Two either side of Bacton Road, Little London, defending the canal bridge The final pillbox is another circular one at Wayford Bridge, near Stalham. The pillboxes were positioned along the River Ant and the North Walsham & Dilham Canal - waterways that could provided further defence in The Broads. They are all slightly inland and were part of a network of pillboxes which were designed to "provide a barrier to invading enemy troops", said Mr Calladine. Pillboxes were generally camouflaged against the landscape to hide the occupants from enemy view. Most were installed with small holes in the walls called loopholes where weapons could be fired from. The first pillboxes were built by the German army on the Western Front, but as the threat of invasion increased in Britain, they began appearing along the east coast of. "The listing of these pillboxes recognises their historic significance and exceptional durability," Mr Calladine added. Historic England hopes people will add their photographs and drawings of the pillboxes and share their stories to its Missing Pieces Project.
