Keeping the Beaches Free of Shipwrecks

I had occasion to fly American Airlines recently. Like all airlines, they’ve worked hard to make their pre-flight safety briefings entertaining and engaging.

I found myself mesmerized by arms swaying in the tracking shots, and the disembodied hands helping buckle the seat were amusing.

This reminded me of nothing so much as an old They Might Be Giants music video.

Same director? Or inter-generational influence.
