OK, I need to preface everything by saying that if you're afraid of flying, this video may not be for you.

好吧，我要那樣說來提前面對，如果你害怕坐飛機， 這個影片可頻能不適合你。

轉承詞

Even though it has a lot of useful tips, like, if you crash, you can indeed survive.

即使它有很多有用的訣竅，比如，如果墜機，你其實可以生存下來。

情態助動詞 B1

You, may have to eat some of the others, but you can.

你，可能不得不吃一些其他人，但是你可以。

Flying is incredibly common, in fact, there are anywhere, from 35 to 40 million flights scheduled every year.

坐飛機是相當普遍的，事實上，任何地方每年都有3500至4000萬的航班。

But for something people do so commonly, why are there still so many myths about it?

但對於人們做得這麼普遍的事情，為什麼還有這麼多關於它的錯誤觀念呢？

Well, in this video I'm going to take seven of the most commonly-believed myths, that you likely still believe about airplanes, and explain the truth behind them.

在這個影片，我將拿出7個最普遍被相信的，你可能仍然相信的關於飛機的錯誤觀念， 並解釋它們背後的事實。

Speaking as someone who flies at least a couple times a month, I can tell you that there's a number of misconceptions about planes that simply have to change.

作為一個月至少飛幾次的人， 我可以告訴你，有一些關於飛機的錯誤觀念，真的要改變了。

So I'm taking it upon myself to reveal those truths to you today.

因此，今天我拿我自己來向你揭露那些事實。

This is 7 Myths You Still Believe About Airplanes.

這就是《你仍然相信的關於飛機的7個事實》。

在飛機墜機事故中生存下來很少發生。

Despite all of the safety protocols and double-checks planes and pilots go through before they takeoff, and the numbers that say it's insanely rare, planes do crash on occasion.

除了飛機和飛行員在他們起飛前要經歷的所有安全協議和雙重檢查， 以及據說極為少見的數量， 飛機的確偶爾會墜毀。

And when they do, they obviously bring people with them.

當它們墜毀時，顯然它們帶著人們一起。

Now, despite all the survivors on Lost, people truly believe if the plane's going down, that's it for them, pretty much guaranteed.

那麼，除了 所有幸存者人們真的認為，如果飛機墜毀， 對於他們來說就是結束了，相當肯定。

Well, I am happy to burst this bubble for you, because odds are, it actually isn't.

我很高興為弄爆這個泡泡，因為事實是，其實不是那樣的。

According to the National Transportation Safety Board, over 95% of people involved in airline accidents, between the years of 1983 and 2000, survived.

根據國家交通安全委員會的統計，在1983年至2000期間， 遭遇飛機事故的超過95％的人生存了下來，

That's good news for frequent flyers, and even better news for black smoke monsters and time-travelling islands.

對於頻繁坐飛機的人來說，這是好消息，並且對於黑煙魔鬼和時間旅行的島嶼是更好的消息。

Don't flush while sitting down, have you ever heard that one on a plane before?

在坐下時，不要沖水，你以前聽說過飛機上的那一個嗎？

Well if you haven't, trust me, it's quite a common saying, as it's believed that a person who does will get stuck, the pressure and suction somehow pulling on your bottom end.

如果你沒有，相信我，這是一個相當普遍的說法，如人們認為這樣做的 一個人將被卡住， 壓力和吸力拉著你的下面。

Well the truth is, if you can manage to form a perfect seal on the vacuum toilet, then you will feel that pressure,

事實是，如果你能夠在空廁所上坐得很好， 那麼你就會感覺到那種壓力，

however, as many a toilet-sitter will tell you, it's almost no trouble at all standing up while the suction is occurring.

但是，就像很多廁所清潔人員會告訴你的，吸力發生時站起來 幾乎一點問題都沒有。

There's even some people who have claimed that human waste that's flushed down those toilets is dumped freely mid-flight, which I promise you is another preposterous myth.

甚至有一些人聲稱沖下那些廁所的人類廢物 在半途被自由傾倒， 我向你保證，這一點是另一個荒謬的錯誤觀念。

According to the FAA it's impossible for a pilot to dump a waste tank in the air.

根據FAA的說法，飛行員是不可能在空中傾倒廢物罐的。

Thank God, because it'd be raining poop, hallelujah.

感謝上帝，因為它會是下糞雨，哈利路亞。

The recirculated air in planes is full of germs and disease.

飛機上再循環的空氣滿是病菌和疾病。

Isn't that just the worst, someone sitting beside you and they're like (gasp).

那不是更糟糕嗎？有人坐在你旁邊，他們會（喘氣）

With all of those people packed into one plane, the air circulation system must be spreading germs and disease all over the cabin, right?

所有那樣的人都塞進一架飛機裡，空氣循環系統一定在整個機艙散播病菌和疾病，對吧？

Well, at least that's what people who seem to get sick on flights have claimed during complaints.

至少那是似乎在飛機上得病的人都在投訴階段這樣說。

However, the truth is that the system does a pretty good job at circulating the air.

但是，事實是該系統在循環空氣方面非常出色。

The way that it works is it takes air into the lower fuselage, where half of it is expelled from the plane,

它運作的方式就是它把空氣吸入下面的機身， 在那裡一半空氣從飛機排出，

and the rest is put through filters and mixed with fresh air collected through the engines.

其餘空氣進入過濾器進行過濾並與從引擎收集來的新鮮空氣混合。

So the air coming through the system is more than likely clean.

因此通過該系統的空氣是再清潔不過了。

But while that air might be filtered, germs can still be left on trays, armrests, seat belts and of course accessories in the seat pockets, not to mention of course the old-fashioned way of person to person.

但是在空氣可能被過濾時，病菌仍然可能留在盤子，扶手，安全帶上以及座位口袋的附加物品上， 當然，更不要提老方式的人對人。

That is the most likely way that you'll get sick on a plane, not from Grandma Jones sitting beside you being like (coughs, splitters), that's the worst.

那是最可能讓你在飛機上得病的方式，不是來自坐在你旁邊的奶奶瓊斯，就像（咳嗽，唾液飛濺）， 那是最糟糕的。

Oxygen masks do nothing except calm passengers.

氧氣罩除了讓乘客平靜下來，什麼用都沒有。

In the event of an emergency during a flight, oxygen masks will fall from the ceiling.

在飛行期間緊急的情況下，氧氣罩會從天花板掉下來。

We've all heard that a ton of times, but according to many people, the air coming through those masks, actually does nothing but make flyers think that they're going to be OK.

我們都已經聽說了很多次，但是根據很多人的說法， 通過那些面罩來的空氣 其實一點用都沒有，只是使得乘客覺得他們會沒事的。

This claim may or may not have started with him, but it was definitely made popular by Tyler Durden, Brad Pitt's character in the movie Fight Club.

這種說法可能或不可能從他開始，但是泰勒·德登，布拉德·皮特在電影 《搏擊俱樂部》裡的角色使之流行起來。

But according to the FAA and various pilots and plane designers, it's a complete myth.

但根據FAA和各飛行員和飛機設計人員的說法，這完全是一種錯誤的觀念。

The air coming through those masks is actually oxygen-rich, and is there so that we can breathe at altitudes above 10,000 feet.

通過那些面罩的空氣其實有豐富的氧氣，這樣我們就在海拔1萬英尺以上的地方進行呼吸。

The higher the altitude, the less oxygen in the air, so yes, those masks actually do serve a purpose.

海拔越高，空氣中的氧氣越少，因此，是的，那些面罩其實是達到其目的地。

This next myth is a real annoyance to co-pilots, as a large number of people believe that they're just apprentices.

接下來這個錯誤觀念，對於副駕駛來說，真的很惱火，因為大量的人認為他們都只是學徒。

As in they're simply learning how to be a real pilot from the plane's captain.

因為他們只是在向飛機的機長學習如何成為真正的飛行員。

The fact is, there are always at least two pilots in the cockpit of any commercial flight, and both are fully capable of operating the aircraft.

事實是，在任何商務航班的駕駛艙都至少會有兩個飛行員， 兩個人都完全能駕駛飛機。

The co-pilot, or first officer, is actually just as involved in flying the plane as the captain is, and in fact often is more so.

該副駕駛飛行員，或者第一官員其實都和機長一樣參與駕駛飛機，並且實際上往往駕駛得更多。

This is because the captain tends to be the primary person to operate the radio, run checklists and communicate with the cabin crew and travellers.

這是因為機長往往是操作無線電，運行檢查清單並與機艙機組人員和乘客溝通的主要的人員。

So to any flyers out there thinking that the co-pilots aren't qualified to fly the plane, chances are, they are flying the plane.

因此對於認為副駕駛飛行員沒有資格開飛機的飛機乘客， 可能是，他們正在開飛機。

Opening an emergency door in flight is a big concern.

在航行中打開緊急艙門是一個大問題。

Strangely, and sadly, it's not uncommon to hear about people freaking out mid-flight and trying to wrench doors open of the plane.

奇怪地，並令人遺憾的是，經常聽說有人在航行中要出去並試圖打開飛機的艙門。

It's so common in fact, that people see it as a huge concern, often flying in fear that that's how they're going to be taken out.

實際上，這非常普遍，人們把它視為大問題，經常在恐懼中飛行，那是他們將要被攆走的原因。

But it turns out, opening the emergency door while in flight isn't as easy as you would think, not even close.

但結果是，在航行中打開緊急艙門不是像你想象得那麼簡單的，甚至關閉也不簡單。

With the cabin pressurized the way that it is, it would take a large hydraulic jack, or the strength of Superman, to literally open one of those doors.

由於機艙被加壓，要確確實實打開其中一個門要用大液壓千斤頂或者超人的力量。

And that should be no surprise considering that it's not only the pressure itself, but a series of electronic locks that activate before takeoff.

考慮到它不僅是壓力本身，還有一系列的在起飛前激發的電子鎖， 那應該一點都不驚奇。

So if anyone ever stands up and goes like, "Let me out, let me out, let me out, let me out", they're just crazy, and they can't do anything about it.

因此有人站起來，說：「讓我出去，讓我出去，讓我出去」， 他們只是瘋了，他們根本無法做到。

A tiny hole in the plane can lead to everyone being sucked out.

在飛機上一個小洞會導致每個人都被吸出去。

Speaking of being sucked out of a plane, many of us have heard a story of a tiny hole in a plane's window suddenly sucking someone, or everyone on board, out of the aircraft.

說到被吸到飛機外面，我們很多人都聽說飛機窗戶上的一個小洞突然把飛機上的某個人或每個人吸到飛機外面。

Well, planes are pressurized, as we discussed, but it would take an explosion, or a serious structural damage to the fuselage, to result in people being ripped from the craft.

飛機是被加壓的，像我們所討論的，但機身爆炸或者對機身造成嚴重的結構損壞， 才能導致把人從飛機扔出去的後果。

In 2006 an Alaska Airlines MD-80 plane sustained damage in the form of a foot-long hole in its fuselage.

2006年，一架阿拉斯加航空公司MD-80飛機因其機身有一個一腳長的洞而遭受損壞。

But, instead of everyone being jettisoned from the plane, the aircraft stayed in one piece, and made an emergency descent.

但是，與把每個人從飛機扔掉相反，飛機將保留為一個整體， 並進行緊急下降。

A sudden change in cabin pressure is never good, but, chances are you'd be just fine.

機艙壓力的突然改變絕對是不好的，但是，可能你會沒事的。

So hopefully now, next time you fly, you'll be a little calmer.

因此希望下次你坐飛機的時候，你會更鎮靜一點。
