Pilots reveal how long it takes plane’s inflatable emergency slides to unfurl
When you’re on a passenger plane jetting off on holiday the last thing you want to happen is an emergency landing.
Whether on water or land it’s likely that the large inflatable slides will be released from the plane if you do come down.
The amazing pieces of kit work as both a soft slide for passengers and crew to disembark from the plane safely and as a floating raft in case of a sea landing.

It’s one of the reasons passengers are advised not to wear high heels on board – so you don’t puncture the life-saving equipment on the way down.
Thankfully, emergency landings and crashes are so rare that most frequent flyers will never experience one.
But, that also means most of us never get to see what the emergency gear looks like.
However, recently a TikTok creator who works for an airline shared a video to the content site showing what the slides look like when unfurled.
