either car or aiplane… if its ur time then u hav to die…
@vroomba03 BUT PLANES CAUSE THE MOST TORTUROUS, HORRIFYING DEATHS. Cars do not!! The worsT part of dying is not tHE MOMENT of death but what leads up to it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It’s much more dangerous to sit on a car than to sit on an airplane!
@TintoreraRacing Yes, and that is where the tragedy of the system lays. Your reason for traveling by planes is in opposition with some air company’s business commitment.
@3edere when I fly I don’t pay air companies to speculate on my life, I pay them to transport me from one place to the next.
@vroomba03 i think cuz the numers of cars around the world is way more than the numbers of planes!!
@vroomba03 Sure, but the % of chances to remain alive after a car crash is higher than the one related to a plain crash, even though, sometimes, remaining alive in certain condition seems to be more a curse than a blessing. However, the nonsense of the air system to is the fact that u actually pay to get your chances…how stupid is paying air company to have them speculate on your life?
Hahaha ” We were delighted not have been serving”!
What a bitch, screw us clients huh
lol
i love watching air crash investigations but it don’t help when i have to fly LOL
If you go to a hospital rehab center you will find motor vehicle accident survivors. You don’t find any air crash victims. lol
@blampa man plastic surgery!
@trevermark1 I believe it is called Mayday in North America, it is in Canada anyway…
can u watch the show that is entitled air crash investigation and the one with the british nararator in the united states?
@vroomba03 And when you have a car accident there is alot more chance of survival then a plane accident
@vroomba03 good point my friend
@vroomba03 And what brings more terror (and ratings) then a plane falling from the sky? <.<
@MrPOPICHILO true, its definately a high number, but around 170 or so people die in the us from car crashes daily, so i guess its kinda like a 737 crashing every day. its spread out though, so it doesnt catch our attention as much
@vroomba03 yea but all the people that die on a plan when it rarely does crash is usually a high number like in the 200′s or even 300′s sometime so those car crashes every day over time equals out to that one plane crash everytime , just sharing my thought, Peace
What’s false about my comments? More cars equals more accidents. Less planes than cars equals less air accidents, but car accidents don’t kill a few hundred people in one single incident like planes do. Cars outnumber planes by an almost incalculable number, so car crashes and deaths are more likely to happen. If everyone flew, and only a few drove cars, then the argument would be the other way around. That’s common sense, and a law of probability. So, what’s false?
@jakfuki False.
@blampa hahahahahah u r so bad!!
There might be a ton of car accidents everyday, but that partly due to the fact that automobiles outnumber planes by a crapload. Plus, more people drive than fly, so the chances of a car accident are obviously going to be higher than a plane crash. When a car crashes, there’s a good chance you can survive. When a plane goes down, it usually takes a few hundred people with it. Car accidents don’t do that. The fatality rate is more spread out with car wrecks over a period of time.
@vroomba03 umm but car crashes are most of em are fast and plane crashes are horrible cause its not instant and its scary
@TheColumbus270 im not gonna argue about this but yeah people die in “decent” cars.
@vroomba03 yeah. In a subcompact! But with descent cars or buses, not.
