How Airline Seats Have Shrunk Over The Years Video

If you've taken a flight in coach anytime in the last 20 years, you may have noticed the seat in front of you creeping closer and closer to your knees. No, you're not growing.

Yes, the airlines have been squishing seats closer together. It's called the pitch, and it's been chopped down by two to three inches over the years.

That's not the only place where the big three are sneaking space from you. Here's a helpful representation of just how much room your ticket gets you on your next flight. The following is a transcript of the video.

How airline seats have shrunk over the years. Feeling cramped? You're not alone. Airlines are adding more seats, leaving less room for individual passengers. The pitch, or distance between seats, has shrunk. The minimum pitch has gone from 31"/32" to 30".

It's not just the pitch. Seat width has also been narrowed over the years. Each airline has lost about 2 inches in seat width. These aren't even the smallest. Some airlines fill the Airbus A330 with 16.7" seats. For comparison, the average first class seat is 21" wide.

One small study compared sleep quality in 17" vs. 18" wide seats. 2/3 of passengers who slept in the 18" seats reported better quality sleep. Plus, passengers fell asleep faster and had fewer twitches in the 18" seats. So if you plan on catching some Zzz's on your flight, dish out the cash for a seat upgrade.

About the Site 🌐

This site provides links to random videos hosted at YouTube, with the emphasis on random. 🎥

Origins of the Idea 🌱

The original idea for this site stemmed from the need to benchmark the popularity of a video against the general population of YouTube videos. 🧠

Challenges Faced 🤔

Obtaining a large sample of videos was crucial for accurate ranking, but YouTube lacks a direct method to gather random video IDs.

Even searching for random strings on YouTube doesn't yield truly random results, complicating the process further. 🔍

Creating Truly Random Links 🛠️

The YouTube API offers additional functions enabling the discovery of more random videos. Through inventive techniques and a touch of space-time manipulation, we've achieved a process yielding nearly 100% random links to YouTube videos.
