Civic sense seems to be disappearing fast. A recent video from an IndiGo flight shows just how bad things have gotten. In the clip, several passengers are seen standing up and opening overhead bins, while the plane was still landing. Not taxiing. Landing.
Despite repeated announcements from a female flight attendant asking everyone to sit down and follow safety rules, many continued to ignore her. Shockingly, it took a male passenger raising his voice for people to finally listen and return to their seats.
That moment has sparked two serious discussions: one about the growing lack of discipline in public spaces, and the other about how people still respond only when a man speaks.
Let’s be honest, this isn’t new. Whether it’s jumping queues, breaking traffic rules, or being inconsiderate on flights, public behavior is clearly on a downward slide. People have become used to ignoring basic rules, and sadly, many of us have started accepting it as normal.
What’s worse is how incidents like this put everyone at risk. Standing during landing isn’t just annoying — it’s a serious safety issue. Airlines have rules for a reason. Ignoring them puts lives in danger.
The video, posted by Instagram user Adam Ellick, quickly went viral with over 25,000 likes and sparked outrage online. People across the country expressed shock and disappointment. Many asked the obvious question: why do passengers need to be reminded of something so basic?
What happened on that IndiGo flight was more than just a disruption. It was a reflection of how careless and entitled some people have become. And the fact that a man had to step in before anything changed says a lot about how society still functions.
