Shouldn't first class be in the rear of airplanes because that has a higher survival rate in crashes?

Isn't part of the experience with first class that you don't get to hear as much noise coming from the engines as people in the back or closer to the engines.

Seating which is most likely to survive in a crash depends on how the plane makes impact... and that is determined by the pilot (who may want to increase their own survival rate by crashing with a sufficient pitch)... or the hijacker.

But anyway, I thought you were gonna try optimise the seating for other reasons when I started reading the tweet, like that one CGP grey video.
