"A Boeing 727 jet slams into the desert,
the front end breaks off and it grinds
to a halt in a cloud of dust.
But this is no terrible tragedy – it’s a £1million
TV experiment to discover whether a
passenger’s chance of surviving a crash
landing is determined by where they sit.
And the Channel 4 documentary
found those at the front in
first-class are more likely to die."

Dear me, another first for the 'no **** sherlock' school of crash testing.
Surely the impact of any crash would depend on which part of the plain hit first?

You pay extra, you die fastest :idc:

With Cameras in HD all the way to the Death.

Watching it... Don't think I will ever holiday abroad again haha!

I'm 20 mins behind!

Oh god this is going to ruin flying for me, which already is very scary!

I can't believe they are remote controlling a plane!

Well i'm already afraid of flying so i'm not sure if this would help at all. I'm watching xfactor usa anyways so missed most of it :devil:

Tbh if you're falling from the skies then you should just expect to die, get over it and embrace it.

And if you survive.. Wheyy bonus

They should invest in parachutes

I've never heard of shockwaves caused by the crash before.

so what they're basically saying is, if your plane crashes you better hope you sat in the right seat :nono:

You could go onto the c4 website beforehand and book yourself a ticket and choose where you wanted to sit and print out a ticket for that seat and then get a report after the crash telling you if you would have survived. I chose seat 33D at the back because ive never seen a plane reverse into a mountain.

WOOHOO i survived!!

Never going to get first class tickets ;) rows 1-7 all died basically lol

really fun to watch the plane go down though
