A WOMAN has revealed the strangest thing she does on a flight to pass the time.
Instagram user Samanthabrowntravels confessed her odd habit in a video to her thousands of followers.
In the video, she said: "I can't watch movies on a flight. I can watch other people's movies on a flight. Strange, right? I will watch my seatmates movie. I will stare in between the spaces of the seats in front of me and see what films they're watching."
She confirmed her favourite over-the-shoulder viewing position as the aisle seat diagonally in front of her – especially if she's watching a rom-com because there's plenty of room to stretch out.
She added: "But, here's the strange part. People can sense that I'm watching and they'll look, and I'll be like 'no, no, no' and give them a blank stare that I wasn't watching your film. I was just contemplating in your direction."
In the same video she also explained that she can't watch violent films.

More than 190,000 people have viewed the video, and they were quick to open up in the comments.

Another person said: "I thought I was the only one who does this on a flight. Can’t watch my own screen but I watch what everyone else's movies and shows."
