In order for something to tip over, the center of mass has to move outside the area of the base and most of the weight is in the bottom part of the lift. So it is basically impossible without actively trying to tip it over.
Small planes and jets are the lion's share of aircraft incidents. They aren't inspected as often(more in the case of personal planes), lack the stability of larger craft, and aren't always flown by experienced pilots. Not to mention they frequent small dirt or grass airfields instead of commercial airport tarmac.
There are like 3-5 small aircraft crashes a day. Small aircraft crash at like 25x the rate of larger craft.
Jet engines are enclosed in a cowling that is designed to handle the engine coming apart. The smallest defect in a jet engine's turbine blades can mean it detaches or deforms, which then causes further damage that will be injested by the engine.
Propellers have free access to the cabin but are subjected to far less forces than the blades of a jet engine, so their failure is less likely, even if damage is undetected.
You can't even trust yourself or a friend to give an accurate depiction of reality. Reality is a totality of subjective consensus.
Science is so easily perverted by bias, that is why peer review is so important. There was a study done on saturated fats and their role in heart disease after Eisenhower had a heart attack in the 50s. The study concluded that there was a direct correlation between the amount of saturated fats and the increase in heart disease based on data gathered from 6 countries. Problem was that the study actually looked at 22 countries and they cherry-picked the 6 countries that showed that correlation and looking at all 22 countries showed no correlation. That is how saturated fats became maligned in nutritional guidelines. Best part? The scientist that did the study in the 50s was largely biased against saturated fats because he believed that cholesterol in the arteries had to be linked to fat in meat because it looked like animal fat. Real "meat makes maggots" logic, as disprovent by Redi.
Honestly, it would be more like the 90s. We didn't have smartphones. We barely had the internet. We didn't have 24/7 news media owned by like 4 people. Granted, bullshit, rumor, and lies spread really easily because we couldn't Google anything that contradicted it; but nobody looks into anything that confirms a personal bias today anyways.
