Please don't flame me for being tall. I don't expect to be treated in some special way because of my height, but this came to my mind while watching a safety video on a Boeing 777 flying from LHR to LAX.

In the video they give instructions for how to get into "crash position" (probably not what they call it) for an emergency or rough landing. My question is; how is a tall person supposed to get in such a postion if the seat pitch is only 32"? I'm a fairly flexible person (good shape, do yoga) and couldn't get my head past the top of the seat in front of me. Does this make my seat less safe in that instance?

I'm not trying to be a smart a**, but if airlines are obligated to show these videos to everyone, shouldn't the plane be laid out in such a way that all passangers can take advantage of the safety features?

Please don't tell me that it's my choice to fly or that I should move out of coach. I'm simply interested in hearing some discussion on this topic. Thanks.
