it probably has something to do with how few people have tried this. the article mentions they only know about 132 people who have tried this in the last 70 years. the “true” mortality rate could be a lot higher, and those people just got lucky.
also could be a sampling error, since the article mentions some people fall out of the plane before it lands, which may make the survivors stand out a bit more.
this has got to be a truly terrible way to die and i feel bad for all those people.
I’m surprised it’s not higher
