Yes, but, a car crash is on the ground, and thanks to the seatbelts I'll most like to come out alive. I am usually driving when I'm on a car, and I drive safe. I never drink and then drive.

Now, the airplane is at thousands of feet in the air, and God knows what the maintenance team, the tower and the pilots drank that night. Also, I am not afraid of the death per se, as I am not afraid of dying at all. I have somewhat of a phobia of the "falling" feeling, so I avoid roller coasters and stuff at all costs. So I am more afraid of a turbulence, which is quite common, than of a mid-air explosion, which I would not mind at all, as I die instantly.
