Flight Safety

Your chances of surviving an airplane crash are 40% higher if you sit in the back.

Also, very interestingly you have a non-zero chance at surviving a 30,000 foot free-fall from an airplane (that’s 6 miles), if you relax and land it right.

It’s almost like surfing the air, guiding your body to the right position and location using aerodynamics, though the landing is a little harder to stick compared to most extreme sports =P.

I don’t intend this article to be any bad omen for anyone, but it’s always good to be more knowledgeable about the world and prepare to thrive in any situation however unlikely they are.
