Thanks for posting this...safety briefing for everyone, just like on the commercial cruises. At work, we ALWAYS were proactive regarding safety...the liability insurance (and OSHA) required it!

A couple times in my work career I have found myself in a military helicopter as a civilian. We always got a safety briefing. At least twice, they started with a line from the pilot giving the safety briefing on procedures if we have to ditch which went along the lines of : “If I am still alive, I will attempt to…” it definitely got my attention. We weren’t in any hostile environment or anything, just shooting promotional videos, but the point was made.

While unlikely, stuff can go sideways very quickly, and it is best to talk about it up front with everyone involved, if only to let people know you have thought of, and have protocols for the worst.
