Statistically, a 10 foot fall has a 50% fatality rate.

Back in the 1970s a plane exploded mid air over Switzerland. Everyone was killed except for one girl who fell thousands of feet and survived. Granted, she landed in very deep snow and broke several bones, but she was still alive.

I was in England at the time and saw her being interviewed. She said she was sitting in the plane and all of a sudden there was a loud noise and everything disappeared except her. She said she was still in a sitting position all the way down. The story scared me so much, I was afraid to fly back to the US and thought about just staying in England for the rest of my life. There is no way I would ever get back on a plane after going through what she went through.
