it's true, new zealand's national airline produced a nude safety video to get & keep passengers attention during the pre- flight safety instruction. the cabin crew's unforms are nothing but body paint!! the video is entitled "the bare essentials of safety". the video has already had 1.2 million hits on youtube since this past friday!! in the video, 3 cabin staff & a pilot all in body paint applied to look like uniforms talk viewers through safety procedures (seat belt, oxy mask operation, life jacket use, etc) the demo items are strategically positioned during the 3 1/2 minute video so as not to offend passengers. 1 segment even shows the airline's top boss nude in body paint. apparently the video has had strong results with passengers paying attention to the safety instructions for a change!! :lol:
