A JetBlue flight attendant has been praised after he performed a hilarious 'mime dance' during a safety demonstration.
Passengers on board the flight from Newark to Tampa were given the unexpected slice of drama this week when the employee, named Peter, delivered vital information about emergency exits and procedures on the plane in his own unique way.
Instead of the standard routine, he entertained them with a series of theatrical flourishes, including a brief snapshot of the classic 'invisible wall' trick.
Other moves included lively interpretations of how to wear and inflate a lifejacket, followed by tips on using the safety whistle - and he finished the display by 'wisping away' out of view.
Over 1.2 million people have now witnessed the impressive mime act since it was uploaded to TikTok by influencer Joey MacNeer, who captioned his post: "Fly Jet Blue also give this guy a raise."
Many other users commented in agreement, with some saying it had brought a sense of joy to the usually dull safety demonstrations.
One said: "That’s the only way I’d be able to pay attention and remember the instructions"
Another quipped "I normally don't look at the flight attendants during this but I'd be full attention if this was happening", as a fellow TikTok user agreed: "I think it's great. a lot of people don't pay attention and this is life saving information"
Someone else suggested that the flight attendant could inspire similar displays from others in his position, saying: "I normally don't look at the flight attendants during this but I'd be full attention if this was happening"
A few people however doubted whether they'd be able to remember the information if it was delivered in this way, as they commented: "I’m drowning because I will not remember that".
The JetBlue website says their in-flight staff aim to "create an award-winning experience for customers" flying with the airline. They are required to attend JetBlue University in Orlando before being assigned to one of five bases in Boston, Fort Lauderdale, JFK New York, Los Angeles or Orlando.
The Mirror have contacted JetBlue for comment.
