If flying gives you anxiety, especially when there's turbulence, Anna Paul shared why there's nothing to be afraid of. If flying gives you anxiety, especially when there's turbulence, Anna Paul shared why there's nothing to be afraid of. Basically, the laws of physics will protect you. Paul explained that it's helpful to imagine the sky as a cup full of Jell-O. She then crumpled up a tiny piece of napkin and dropped it into the cup of Jell-O. "That is you flying through the sky," she said . "There's pressure from the bottom, pressure from the top, from the sides. Pressure coming from everywhere, OK?" . She tapped the top of the Jell-O cup to demonstrate what turbulence is like. The napkin shook as the Jell-O wobbled, but it didn't sink any deeper. "It's stuck in there because there's pressure coming from the bottom and the sides," Paul said. She added that there has never been a plane crash caused by turbulence either, "so you don't have to be scared" . The helpful tip received 18.7 million views and 3.9 million likes on TikTok
