9 Little-Known Details About People Who Control Your Flight



Did you know that the pilot isn’t the main person in control of the plane. Every day, up to 200,000 airplanes take off and land somewhere across the world. Imagine how many people it takes to make that process go smoothly. What about the person who helps the pilot from the ground? The one who plans every single step? They monitor the weather, list the flight checkpoints, inform the pilot of any potential hazards along the flight route, draft an alternative route if necessary– this still isn’t the complete list of roles they have! So, who is this superhero? Other videos you might like:

– Many dispatchers are retired pilots, but even those who aren't still go through a lot of the same training as future pilots do. They take a similar written test and everything! – Depending on their size and number of flights, airlines hire from just a few to dozens of flight operations officers. – Flight dispatchers typically work in 8-hour shifts. They usually start planning the flight around 3 hours before departure, probably when the pilot is still having their pre-flight cup of coffee.
– The Dispatcher is physically on the ground and follows every step of the flight using these powerful radars here. – A pro can oversee up to two dozen flights at the same time! Of course, it depends on how experienced they are. – Some people confuse the job of a flight dispatcher and an air traffic controller. These are two very different positions. To put it simply, flight dispatchers make up a plan, and air traffic controllers help it work out.
– Any aircraft has vital electronic systems within it. When something malfunctions, avionics technicians repair, replace, and calibrate newly installed equipment. – Aircraft fuelers work in any weather conditions and must be physically strong and quick to do their job.
– Airline station agents make sure the airline is doing just fine at this or that airport. They support both the flight and ground crews and coordinate the work of air and ground services.
– For planes to take off and land on time, there must be a whole team of people waiting on the ramp. And, of course, any plane needs a crew. The schedule coordinator comes up with a timetable that all these people follow.
– “Birdman.” Officially, you’d work as part of the airport’s Bird Control, but the idea is the same: your job is to scare birds and other wildlife away from the airport grounds and airspace. Music by Epidemic Sound https://www.epidemicsound.com/ Subscribe to Bright Side : https://goo.gl/rQTJZz

8 Things Sharks Do for You Without You Knowing



You scared of sharks? In reality, you have more chances of being struck by lightning than being bitten by a shark. Still, sharks do have a bad rap, even though they’re not as horrible as people think. They’ve even been known to save people! No, really, sharks are amazing! Did you know, for example, that they can hear as far as 800 ft away? They’re even able to catch the sound of their prey tensing its muscles. They’re also older than dinosaurs. Scientists believe sharks have been around for about 450 million years. For comparison, the first dinosaurs appeared more than 200 million years later! Other videos you might like:

SUMMARY:
– Sharks feed on smaller fish, and smaller fish feed on phytoplankton. Without sharks, there’ll be too many fish eating the plankton. It all boils down to one thing –a lack of oxygen. – Researchers found a special compound called squalamine in dogfish sharks' tissue that can fight various chronic infections in humans.
– Great white sharks can move at a speed of up to 25 mph. The secret is in their denticles – small, flat, V-shaped scales. Olympian swimsuit designers did their best to duplicate the sharks’ denticles, creating a fabric that makes swimmers sleeker and faster in the water. – A 2018 Harvard University study suggests that these unique denticles on sharks’ skin can also help to create more efficient planes and cars. – Without sharks, the marine creatures keep eating the seagrass, disrupting the blue carbon ecosystems, and releasing ancient carbon. This has the same effect as the greenhouse gas emissions from cars that destroy the ozone layer.
– People are scared of sharks, but they’re also fascinated by these majestic predators. And over the last two decades, this fascination has turned into a thriving ecotourism industry. – A diving instructor from Port Macquarie, Australia, has been buddies with a female Port Jackson shark for over half a decade. The man met his friend when the shark was just a pup. – Not all shark species live in the ocean. You can also see them in some freshwater lakes and rivers. – The sharks’ skeleton isn’t made of bones. It consists of only cartilage and muscle, which is much less dense than bones. – Sharks have rows and rows of teeth, and can grow as many as 30,000 teeth in a lifetime. – Believe it or not, sharks and humans have a common ancestor that lived around 440 million years ago.

That’s What Happens After You Flush



A riddle for you: The average person uses it about 2,500 times a year. Over a lifetime, you end up spending 3 months there. It gets the highest number of simultaneous visitors during Super Bowl halftime. Yep, today we’re talkin’ toilet! Let's find out how it works! Believe it or not, the key moving power behind today’s toilets is … gravity. But for gravity to pull our waste away, it needs some help. That’s where the commode’s specific design and engineering come into play. What happens when you flush will often depend on where you live in this world, but here are the basics… Other videos you might like:

The main parts 0:54
Where all the magic happens 3:34
How they do that in Europe 4:59
Rivers of waste 5:58 Waterless lavatory 6:54 SUMMARY:
– There’s that tank behind you where you might have some decorative potpourri sitting on top. If you take the lid off, you’ll see a bunch of water sitting inside. – The fill valve works a lot like a doorman at the club. It decides when there’s enough water and stops more of it from getting in. – Once the water level gets to where it needs to be, a float rod attached to the ball pushes the fill valve so that extra water can’t get in. – A typical American toilet has a handle on the side of the tank that you push down to flush. In Europe, some older places still have pull chains above the commode. – When you press the handle or push the button to flush the toilet, it pulls on a chain that lifts this thing on the very bottom of the tank called the flapper. – Water doesn't just come out in one large stream but moves through scattered holes in the rim.
– Most of the water successfully leaves the system through the main drain, but some of it stays in the bowl.
– That big curved pipe under the toilet toward the wall – it’s called the S-bend, and that’s where all the magic happens!
– Thanks to that special curvature in the S-pipe, it creates something called a trap. When you fill the bowl with each flush, you overflow and break that trap, causing the main drain to literally pull the water down. – Over in Europe, they use the washdown system. Instead of pulling the water out, it basically gets pushed down through the exit. – That toilet water joins the soapy water from your daily showers, dishwashing, and laundry days.
– All those gigantic rivers of waste flow into treatment plants. There, they remove any harmful substances from the water – you can imagine how many germs are in there! – The cleaning process takes a long time with all the proper chemical processing. And only after it's definitely clean and safe, the water is set free into a nearby river or the ocean. – The most famous waterless lavatory has to be the airplane toilet. They use a disinfecting liquid and powerful vacuum suction thanks to the air pressure difference inside and outside the cabin.

Window Or Aisle Seat: Which Is Better



To be or not to be, that is… not a question anymore. Aisle seat or window seat — now that is the question! If you ask people where they prefer to sit on a plane, you’ll get tons of different opinions. But is there really some bottom line to this debate? What can be more beautiful than a city from a bird’s eye perspective? Looking outside just isn’t the same when you’re not next to the window, no compromise here. An aisle seat gives you plenty of leg room, which can’t be said about window seats. But what about the middle seat? Does it have any advantages? Other videos you might like:

Seats that people avoid 6:20
Never seat near the aisle in the vicinity of the bathroom 7:03 SUMMARY:
– If you’re a good sleeper, there’s nothing better than to take a window seat on a long-haul flight.
– If you’re in an aisle seat, chances are, someone on a fully booked plane would eventually ask you to switch seats with them to be with their companions or family. – In addition, sitting at the window gives you full control of the shade. If you want to sleep but the light from outside is too bright for comfort, just roll it down! – If you ever feel stiff from sitting with your legs bent at the knees, you can always stretch them in the aisle.
– On top of that, you are always free to go to the bathroom or just walk a little bit to bring life back to your lower limbs.
– What’s more, aisle seats are strategically important: if you’re smart with your timing, you just might be the first to get off the plane after it lands.
– And yet another reason for aisle seat lovers is that you can see the approaching food cart, and you’ll always be the first to serve your in-flight meal. – No one wants to be in the middle. You’re about to be crammed between two people with no access either to the window or the aisle, no other headrest than your seat, and no extra leg room. – According to statistics, you’re better off sitting at the tail of the plane! The thing is, in an emergency situation, the tail has better chances of making it in one piece, which might help keep you in one piece. – If you have a choice in the matter, try to avoid sitting near the aisle somewhere in the vicinity of the bathroom, both front and tail. – Closer to the end of your trip, especially if it’s a lengthy one, people will start forming a line to do their business.

That’s Why Cruise Ships Don’t Tip Over



Let's see what happens to a cruise ship in a bad storm. Can waves sink a cruise ship? Are cruise ships safe and unsinkable? Have you ever wondered why anchors are shaped the same way and why are they effective? Or how ice breakers can go through the ice? Or why is the lower part of the ship often painted red? And if you like ships, you might also be interested in knowing what the living conditions of a ship's crew are. Other videos you might like:

What is the biggest ship in the world? 5:39
How do small tugboats tug huge ships? 6:13
What are some of the weirdest ship designs? 6:44
How do ships communicate with each other? 7:24 SUMMARY:
– The shape of the ship allows it to push on water and displace a certain volume of it. At the same time, this displaced water is pushing back up on the ship and keeps it afloat. – Stabilizers on most ships are a pair of fins with sensors that catch the motion of the water around them and change the position of the fins. – The anchor itself helps only to keep the ship around one place. In reality, it's the weight of the chain that keeps the ship more stable during a stop.
– Ice breaker ships are unique in having a rounded bow that is designed to get on top of the ice and break it by the mass of the ship. – The main part of the sign painted on the hull of the ship is in horizontal lines – they show how low will a ship sit in the water with a certain weight on board. – The lower part of the ship is often painted red. It's made specifically to keep barnacles, seaweed, and worms out of the surface of the hull. – Larger ships normally have separate cabins with a comfortable bed, a wardrobe, a table, and sometimes even personal showers.
– The crew of a cruise ship lives a bit more modest life if you compare it to how guests spend their time. But they have their secrets and advantages – every cruise ship is riddled with pathways and rooms you'll never see as a guest.
– The largest cruise ship in the world is the Symphony of the Seas. It's almost 1,200 feet long and weighs around 230,000 tons.
– Tugboats may be small but their engines and propellers are huge for their size. A massive ship will need several tugboats to move it faster.
– BOKA Vanguard is just a weird ship like that. It's the true heavy-lifter, a semi-submersible dock ship, that transports bigger ships across the sea from one dock to another when they're still not ready to go on their own.
– When a ship gets in trouble in the middle of the ocean, and can't send a distress signal, it still has a way to communicate through flags. Music by Epidemic Sound https://www.epidemicsound.com/ Subscribe to Bright Side : https://goo.gl/rQTJZz

The Simple Reason Why Ships Don’t Roll Over On Waves



Ships nowadays are so huge that you can’t help wondering: how do these enormous chunks of metal not sink the moment they leave the harbor, and leave a big hole in the surface? And why do they roll, making some passengers sick? Have you ever wondered why anchors are shaped the same way and why are they effective? Or how ice breakers can go through the ice? Or why is the lower part of the ship often painted red? And if you like ships, you might also be interested in knowing what the living conditions of a ship's crew are. (Spoiler: surprisingly good).

See this chair? Write evidence that it doesn't exist. The person who convinces me of this will pass." What should you write to ace the exam?
– You face 30 years locked up, but the king decides to give you a chance to free yourself. He asks you to name 3 body parts that begin and end with the same letter. – Your boss suspects that you’re secretly working for a competitor, and he wants to get rid of you. Since you’ve been such an outstanding worker, he lets you pick how you’ll be dismissed. What can you choose if you want to keep your job, but still satisfy the boss’s conditions? – Your boss suspects that you’re secretly working for a competitor, and he wants to get rid of you. Since you’ve been such an outstanding worker, he lets you pick how you’ll be dismissed. What can you choose if you want to keep your job, but still satisfy the boss’s conditions? – You were bitten by a venomous snake! To be saved, you need to take the antidote first, and then the catalyst. But all the tablets in your pocket look the same, and you got them mixed up! What do you do?
– You’re summoned to court, and the king announces the sentence: life behind bars! Fortunately, he gives you a chance at freedom if you can solve a riddle. The king will cut your sentence in half if you figure out how to do it right. What do you decide?
– A mechanic changed your car's tires, but they didn’t put the bolts back in tightly on one of the wheels. As you’re driving, sure enough, that wheel pops right off! Fortunately, you have a spare in the trunk. But here's the problem – those 4 bolts that were loose are now lost in the snow! What’s your next move?
– You're on a small uninhabited island. A huge fire starts raging on the opposite side. The flames are headed right toward you since the wind is blowing in your direction. You can't seek refuge in the sea because it’s swarming with sharks. How can you get away from the fire?
– You’re traveling in a hot-air balloon when gale-force winds take you far from your destination. The storm subsides, and you land in the middle of the desert. You have just one small bottle of water. The good news: you know which way to go. Bad news: according to your estimates, the journey will take at least 3 days. How will you survive?
– Your father is a wealthy aristocrat and wants to leave you a huge inheritance. Jackpot! But he wants to be sure that you can manage his money intelligently. To check, he asks you to solve a riddle: how do you feed a whole family if you only have $3 in your pocket?
