Because the plane is lighter, it will rise in altitude as passengers leave the floor. Together, you and the other passengers exert the force of about 10 elephants, or 800 people. This sudden push of weight changes the plane's trajectory and the captain loses control as the plane nosedives to your untimely death.

Read More »Do you get a little nervous before a flight? If you do, you’re not alone. Between 33% and 40% of people feel some form of anxiety when they board a plane. While a giant metal object, flying through the air stuffed with people and cargo sure sounds precarious, planes are actually pretty steady. Not convinced? Let’s do an experiment. Here we have a Boeing 777. It’s a full flight. And we’re going to make all 500 passengers jump at once.
Many people capitalize on this and take their own personal defense very seriously and often ask the question “how many guns should I have?” This...

Because the plane is traveling at around 870 kilometers per hour (540 mph), this collective jump only created a minor change in trajectory. The captain can easily adjust, though he might be a little annoyed at all his pesky passengers. Now, this is assuming that all 500 passengers have an average out to around 75 kg (165 lb) for a total weight of 37,500 kg (82,500 lb). It would be a different story if it was a flight full of 500 sumo wrestlers, who can weigh up to 200 kg (440 lb). It would also be a much more dangerous stunt to pull during take-off or landing. The plane has a much lower velocity during those moments, which means that the shifting of weight could have a more drastic effect on the trajectory. And the captain might not be able to correct in time. Now, if everyone decided to continue to jump in sync, and at a quick enough pace, you could create an unstable condition called flutter. This vibration originates from the airplane, causing unsteady aerodynamics which affects the natural frequency of the plane. Natural frequency is the set of frequencies that an object vibrates at when hit. If the vibrations from passengers continuously jumping caused flutter, then the structure of the airplane could fail and you would drop out of the air. But the coordination of this would be near impossible, so it’s not something you really have to worry about. Despite many people’s anxieties, flying is actually very safe. Airplanes are safer than both trains and cars.
