Seat 11A survivor escaped Air India crash from front, not the 'statistically safer' rear
Vishwash Kumar Ramesh, Air India flight crash's sole survivor, escaped from front of aircraft, an area typically considered less safe than the rear in a crash. "The...side of...plane I was on landed on...ground," he said. Time magazine, in a 2015 study, analysed 35 years of data and reported that fewer people who were sitting in back died in plane crashes.
