Meanwhile, other people jump out of a plane with a broken parachute, land in a haystack and escape with a broken leg and some bruises. It's wild how the human body can be so resilient and fragile at the same time.
I had a professor who spent many years in the thick of battle in the Vietnam war. He said this was one of the hardest things to deal with mentally. One person would survive after getting shot all over and the next person would get the smallest bit of shrapnel in the wrong spot and "just turn off."
Or it’s just bad luck. My great uncle died during that war because of engine failure at take off.
Really need to protect that noggin and the rest can heal.
Every body part has a major artery in it.
Get hit in the armpit, dead.
Get hit in the thigh, dead.
Get hit in the liver, dead.
Break a femur and it nicks the femoral artery, dead.
There certainly are ways to reduce the blood flow to survive a trip to the hospital, but if you don't get blood back in you soon, you just shut down forever.

Not sure their heads dropping into the basket was a contributing cause.
Well then, that might just be the death of them.
That is called plot armour
Yeah, that's not common, don't count on that. Most of the time that you fall from a plane, you're gonna die.
Yeah, and most of the time when you trip on a curb, you don't die. Doesn't mean we can't talk about the fringe cases.
And LSD?
Most of the time you survive a plane fall, you probably wish you hadn't
Well, to be fair you can't wish you didn't survive the fall, so that is always going to look away worse. As I type this, it sounds nonsensical but was funnier in my head
