Reply to comment by el_coremino in TIL: In 2012, a group of Mexican scientists intentionally crashed a Boeing 727 to test which seats had the best chance of survival. by markphahn

When I say "shit goes wrong" I'm not talking about a little tumble right after takeoff. Crashes from very low altitude pad the survivability rates, I'm sure, but that's not what I'm talking about. Also, that second article was really just polishing a turd: wear the right clothes and sit in the right seats and you, too, could survive a plane crash! Put your head right against the seat in front of you so when it comes loose it can break your neck! Be sure to huff the oxygen so you get nice and high so you ragdoll on impact (too bad you'll be disoriented if you do survive)!

So you're saying if it's an unsurvivable plane crash you will not survive.

The lower force crashes may not be what you're talking about.

It's exactly what the flight attendants are talking about.

Right, but they don't make that clear, nor do the articles.
