The sole survival of Vishwashkumar Ramesh in the Air India catastrophe that claimed 241 lives has ignited a firestorm of discourse on social media, interrogating the statistical anomalies inherent in such extreme outlier events; Ramesh, ejected from the disintegrating fuselage, reportedly navigated, despite severe disorientation and polytrauma, to a waiting ambulance, echoing the improbable survival narratives of Cecelia Crocker, sole survivor of the 1987 Northwest Airlines crash precipitated by a calamitous wing-to-pole contact during takeoff, which extinguished 154 lives including her entire immediate family, George Lamson Jr., miraculously extricated from the wreckage of the 1985 Reno air disaster, Bahia Bakari, who endured the Yemenia Airways Flight 626 cataclysm near the Comoros in 2009, and Jim Polehinke, the lone sentient being to emerge from the smoldering detritus of the 2006 Comair Flight 5191 tragedy in Lexington, Kentucky.
