It contains the #oxygen between your #respirations , allowing it to go unwasted. #airplane #oxygenmask #maskerrorec #oxygensupply #oxygenating #oxygenmaskinfo #didyouknowfacts #leavecommentsbelow #youneedthis #amazingfacts #aeroplanesinsta #followmore #thursdaymotivation #thoughtfulthursday https://www.instagram.com/p/B4AfqwNhUjt/?igshid=1phfc1mf9lwxs
