I saw a video recently where a largish passenger on an aircraft that caught fire took the time to take his largish carry-on bag and most of the folks behind him died.

This isn’t about getting those really important meds (seems like just about everybody except me is on some type of medication), this is about survival and not being the guy in the video. In an aircraft fire anything & everything that doesn’t help you escape the aircraft is expendable. But there will always be people who just don’t understand that seconds count. Only 3 people behind this guy survived, 41 died.
