And, the 4th or 5th time you have to watch it, it's a lot worse. And it doesn't get better from there.
Of course, the other video that they always show with it is similarly idiotic. But at least that video doesn't also tell you using hand sanitizer is in any way a substitute for washing them. :)
Well...welcome to our happy little addicted group!..I peeked at your pedigree and it looks like you've been cruising almost forever! I never bothered to put all my old ones in there...just laziness I guess.FWIW, re this actual topic..I opined awhile back in another thread on this subject that in case of real emergency, people who actually paid some attention to the location of the lifeboats (just walking around the main deck outside will tell you that) would probably do just fine..that, combined with a bad attitude and a modicum of luck, which is always a good thing to have, when stuff hits the fan. Sometimes you can do everything right, and still crap out. Welcome again!!!
