Some "funny" comment about video games since it was posted in the wrong section on accident.
Really happy everyone made it if true.

Yeah, I'm kind of confused about that. Comes across as kinda insensitive
It's all luck. There isn't a safe way to crash land an airliner and those inflatable tubes are there to give you the illusion that you're safe no matter what.
It's not all luck. Commercial airplanes are incredible feats of engineering.
It isnt the plane that's the problem. It's the environment and chaos that ensues once you hit ground. I'm not disagreeing with the plane being amazing, but I also dont think these people are any less fortunate to be alive than a mega millions lottery winner

But yeah, incredible that everyone survived (Let's hope those in critical condition can recover). That's not something you can say a lot when this kind of accidents happen.
Some people mentioned it might have been a weather related thing?

It just been reported that the pilot is the one with the most serious injuries.

Damn, hopefully the pilot can recover soon. The note indicates that he's on stable condition after the surgery.
There's only 49 people remaining getting medical attention but it seems they will be allowed to leave soon as they're OK. There's 2 kids with burn injuries tho :(
Goddamn hero.
I soon as I heard that a plane crashed I just instantly assumed everyone had died but the pilot saved all of their lives.
Commercial plane crashes are actually pretty rare here in México. In fact, I can't remember the last time we had an accident like this one.
Wow, 103 people and they all survived? I've never heard of a plane crash with a survival rate like that.
And a well trained pilot will know how to do a "crash landing" in the most favorable way, sure there's some luck involved, but mostly not.
After all flying is indeed by far the safest of all transportation systems.
