Narrative:
While strapped into my 3L jumpseat and sitting on tarmac waiting for our turn to take off a sudden very strong smell of fuel/oil came into the main cabin very strong in aft part of main cabin. Many passengers started waving their arms at me and were concerned about the strong odor it was bothering them I called the captain to inform him of the strong fuel/oil smell coming into the cabin. These incidence are happening more often and are not acceptable. Threatens the health of crew and passengers. Passengers were waving at me concerned about the fumes I had already called the captain to inform him of the strong smell of fuel in the aft part of main cabin.
