I hadn't flown for many many years and the nice people at Cathay Pacific decided to put me next to the window and my girlfriend in the isle seat so there was an empty seat between us. I set up my phone to catch my reaction but I wasn't expecting to act the way I did and almost shit my pant. I had watched sooo many videos on youtube about air crashes and watched seconds to disaster also about plane crashes. So I had made my self afraid of flying by watching these videos. On the coach to the airport I was almost in tears when I could see the planes taking off. They even let me meet with the captain's and flight officer/co pilots. The amount of force you feel when them engines rev up then let the breaks go. It's like nothing I had felt before. It was quite a big bird too a 777 300ER and we was located a few seats behind the wing in front of the middle emergency door. Anyway lets just say I was quite scared.
