Not to be too controversial, but it familiarity breeding contempt here?
I also travel a lot and probably could do the safety brief in my head if I wanted to, but that is not the point :-)
I still give it my full attention, as I know that should something happen my life could depend on it (and unfortunately, the "know-it-alls who think the paper is more important)
It is very easy with overuse of anything to become confident - however, over-confidence can, well, shall we say lead to "other issues".....
Also, as the briefing clearly states (and I quote....)
"As this may differ from other aircraft you have travelled on before...."
Just my tupence worth...

P.S. I notice some airlines have removed the line ".... bearing in mind the nearest exit may be behind you......"
Any thoughts, or is this to allow the herd to head forward whilst those who listened go back?
