My favorite airline safety video of all time is ANA's "Kabuki", which (IMHO) strikes the right elements of being clear, informative, gorgeous, absurd and showcasing Japan all at the same time:

They used to have a really good "behind the scenes" video for it as well, but I can only find this shortened version on online:

Wow, I can't believe I actually appreciate the direction and overall production value of an airline safety video.

Probably serves its function better for it too! I can't imagine nearly as many people would tune it out or just feign attention, but it's not totally sacrificing the focus on what matters.

Found it! Completely wordless, but the sheer attention to detail shown is again very Japanese.
