The BA Flight Safety Video With Mr. Bean, Gordon Ramsay And More Celebs Is A Winner

There's nothing more boring than having to listen to flight attendants run through the pre-flight safety message, so why not spruce it up with Mr. Bean and more.

Unless it’s your first time flying, safety videos are extremely boring and an unscheduled glaze might occur when the flight attendant steps into the aisle to tell you where your nearest exit is.

In an attempt to make these necessary messages a little more interesting, British Airways teamed up with Comic Relief, a major UK charity with a vision of a just world, free from poverty, to design a new ad.

Featuring 10 of Britain’s big celeb names, including Chiwetel Ejiofor, Gordon Ramsay, Rob Brydon, Sir Ian McKellen, Thandie Newton and Rowan Atkinson, the ad attempts to “help customers absorb important safety messages, while boosting fund-raising for Flying Start,” explains Channel24.

Although you probably know the drill, do enjoy:

I guess after that little stint I am not the only one wanting to book a flight out of here.
