amazing Abbas bhai....thankyou for posting.....

looks like someone punched a hole in the wing.......is it jetfuel we are seeing? any idea what could cause this?

I can tell the announcement asks the pax to be seated for their safety, before the voice is drowned out by someone saying "its jetfuel"

Thanks for the link Abbas bhai....offers some interesting detail but I am shocked by what Hijazzey has translated the arabic announcement into - as being routine - it is absolutely shocking how a person can say that about an airline whose safety and flight attendant training I have found flawless in 15 years I have flown with them.
Can someone point out to that wiseguy that the flight attendant cleaarly asks the passengers:
"Respected passengers please be seated and keep your seatbelts fastened.....for your safety and that of others, please remain seated with your seatbelts fastened"
