I know this is a joke, but its also a really good point. I'd say the chances of survival is almost as low even if you did parachute eject. 1. You might just land in the ocean and drown or on an enemy aircraft carrier and get shot up. 2. You succeed landing on a ship or didnt drown, but you will most likely be captured by the enemies and could be subject to torture where you might leak information to the enemy. I am assuming they had to die because they didnt want to give the enemy intel, and dying on impact is the least painful way compared to the alternatives.

I’ll be honest watching this video made me feel like I was right there with the pilot, my hands were sweating and my heart started racing, I can’t even imagine how these men felt in that plane as the mechanics started it, they probably didn’t really want to be there but the pressure from the emperor scared them into doing this, I wonder how many men intentionally crashed their planes into the ocean last minute hoping they would survive and not have to nose dive into the ship and await a certain death, thanks for the video man, this is a really powerful piece of history that should not be forgotten.

The worst kamikaze pilot made it home alive
I read a good book on the kamikaze, from basic selection, training, through to crunch. Interestingly towards the end there was a young married couple, a pilot actually took his wife with him and they died together. Apparently she wore her wedding dress especially and the ground crew had a major problem stuffing them both into the cockpit. Neither, the book said, survived ...

Fun fact: Japan created a purpose-built kamikaze plane, called the MXY-7 Ohka. It was basically a 2000 pound bomb with a cockpit and wings. Worse part about it was that it wasnt a propeller plane. It was rocket-powered, and often went way too fast for allied anti-air guns to hit.

It was all Tojo's fault, Hirohito did nothing wrong!!!
When I was in elementary school back in the mid 70's. I remember the teacher played a movie that was about WWII. It showed a Japanese destroyer ship that had a single file line of teenage boys 17-18 years old. There were hundreds, it looked like. All in line waiting to walk down this staircase that was welded to the hull of the ship. It went from an area on the deck towards the bow (front) of the ship. There was a big door on the side of the ship that was almost at the water line level. At this opening in the side of the ship is where the staircase landing was. A type of platform and a couple of guys would load a floating torpedo into the water. It had a steering wheel in the front and a metal seat on top the torpedo. The steering was just a steel rod that went straight down through the torpedo housing to a small rudder. There was another setup just like that at the rear of the torpedo. So, these young boys would take a seat, two people on one torpedo. Their job was to steer that torpedo once the thruster was ignited into the target ! I was probably in 5th or 6th grade when I seen that, never will I forget it. I was thinking could you imagine you and either the guy in front of you or behind you is going to be your suicide partner basically ! Everyone just waiting their turn going down those stairs to die ! That was the Japanese version of a guided torpedo! Back then everyone was worried about nuclear attack too.
The concept is insane.

I’m sure being a kamikaze pilot was usually a blast. I mean, they made a great impact at times. It was rare for them not to fling themselves at a target. They had a a way of seeing eye to eye with the enemy. Granted, they were often buried with work. But, at the end of the day, they could usually clear their minds and relax knowing that they made life difficult for anyone who had to sweep their remains off of the side of the boat.
It was a pretty short crarrer path

Hasn't any of the Kamikazes actually asked themselves "You know, if this suicide thing is such a great honor, dying for the Emperor and all, then why don't any of our generals volunteer for these missions? Don't they want to go to Heaven?"

That was the thing, not only they put the smartest dude in suicide missions, they also literally put their best pilot with the most experience to the Kamikaze program. Like ones that served in China and etc. That was why it so successful at first and thought they can replicate it.
