why is the back of the plane the safest in a crash?

208 viewsOtherPhysics

Is it because the plane will mostly hit nose first on the ground?
Has it ever been a case where people in front died/suffered injuries and the people in the back were fine? Is the back sturdier because it needs to withstand the force of the tail elevators?

The safest place to be in a plane is sitting by an emergency exit. They did studies on this.
