JSL had a very valid point. Maybe it is worthwhile for the cabin crew to include in their safety brief that the overwing exits have no slides and that pax should slide of the flaps.
We don't know if Jean has read the Safety Instructions or not. If she hasn't then that is not so smart. If she has, and hasn't understood them then it should be investigated why people don't understand them.

i.e the crew have a responsibility to cater for those who are a problem for the sake of everyone else.
Running In, I do get the impression that you are trolling. If you really work onboard an aircraft as you say, then you should be aware that there is no hope in hell that a member of cabin crew is going to get anywhere in the cabin apart from their evacuation position. In the Jet2 case, you got 189 people trying to evacuate an aircraft and a person will NOT be able to go against the flow of people who are trying to exit the jet.
