Shrapnel travels horizontally. The less vertical space you’re occupying, the less likely you are to be hit by it. That’s also less surface area for shockwaves to act upon, protecting you from the blast itself. Plus, there’s more cover down low, and you’re not in a horizontal trajectory from the windows for glass shards to fly.
