英國媒體與科學家合作，日前花了百萬英鎊，在墨西哥索諾蘭沙漠(Sonoran Desert)，進行了一項波音727客機的實際墜機試驗。這項實驗的目的，是為了科學家們有機會研究，飛機機身座艙的耐撞度，以及對人體所產生的影響。公仔箱論壇& K3 q5 @; S' J: V: m# `/ N1 @- x0 Z5 b " S* `; j4 D( Q# m+ NTVBNOW 含有熱門話題，最新最快電視，軟體，遊戲，電影，動漫及日常生活及興趣交流等資訊。It pays to fly economy: Dramatic Boeing 727 crash suggests that sitting in the cheap seats on a plane could save your life . y( S+ o- i$ @" v( j$ l1 ?/ bTVBNOW 含有熱門話題，最新最快電視，軟體，遊戲，電影，動漫及日常生活及興趣交流等資訊。TVBNOW 含有熱門話題，最新最快電視，軟體，遊戲，電影，動漫及日常生活及興趣交流等資訊。; u6 W4 q6 a2 T4 ^2 [

根據英國《太陽報》（The Sun）報導指出，一項耗資100萬英鎊（約新台幣4700萬元）的實驗日前選在墨西哥索諾蘭（Sonoran）沙漠進行，使用報廢的波音727搭載170名假人模擬空難發生，希望能藉此了解飛機機身和機艙的防撞強度，以減低空難時所造成的傷亡。 # O4 u/ L2 [3 p' m0 Q 2 X! i' B: A& Y3 utvb now,tvbnow,bttvb而實驗結果顯示，波音727上的170名假人中，繫好安全帶並做好抱頭安全動作的假人安然度過墜機過程，而繫好安全帶、未做好抱頭安全動作的假人則是頭部重創；沒繫上安全帶也未做好抱頭安全動作的假人，在飛機墜毀時多處重傷、立即死亡。 + g3 ^- Z* ?$ G& X1 j3 i5 ~www.tvboxnow.com公仔箱論壇9 P0 L' o; u+ ?4 I( {
此外實驗結果也指出，雖然飛機墜毀時78%的乘客會幸運生還，但是坐在飛機前端頭等艙的乘客就沒那麼幸運了；由於飛機墜毀時通常是機鼻著地，因此頭等艙乘客的死亡率最高，其中前66名乘客和駕駛艙成員會立即死亡。
