I literally watched flight videos on YouTube until I could understand why a plane does what it does.

I feel a whole lot better. The fear is the plane falling out the sky, but understanding just how many safety features go into air travel made me feel a whole lot better.

If you have issues when the plane rotates, chewing gum always helped me.

I've still never been on a plane because of that. I'm terrified of getting on a plane.

I've flown plenty in my life, but I'll get little bouts of nervousness here and there.

I always remind myself that the pilot and flight attendants don't want to die either. They do this shite all day everyday.

Weirdly enough, the older I get, the more afraid of flying I get. I jumped out of airplanes in my younger years without blinking an eye but now a rough landing freaks me out.

They put way more technology in planes today than necessary, along with the fact that not one but two people in that cockpit are capable of handling on their own in any situation if needed.

Planes can land themselves in most conditions too.

It's not my favorite thing in the world, but I do it more than a dozen times a year. How often do planes crash outside of like Malaysia?
