Where you sit on a plane could make a difference in a survivable crash, according to historical accident data.
Analyses of past aviation crashes have shown that passengers seated in the rear section of an aircraft generally had higher survival rates than those closer to the front. One study found a survival rate of 69% in the rear cabin, compared with 56% near the wings and 49% in the front.
While seat location is no guarantee of survival, these findings offer an interesting look at how different sections of an aircraft have fared in real-world accidents.

That's mean before it crash it will land on it's wheel first then start burning the wings and the middle seats which is the least safe

Don’t put ur head down, it insures death. They tell you to do that because the payout for someone who survives a plane crash is astronomical. Best chance to survive is sitting back in ur chair .

So why are the seats for the wealthy always at the front of the plane, and why are the front seats so much more expensive?

Water landing the best seats might be the emergency exit it row or front so it really depends on the type of crash..
