Why don’t Commercial Airplanes have Parachutes?

YT "Seatbelts and airbags in cars save passengers lives. Parachutes save people who, for a variety of reasons, exit a plane in mid-flight. So why aren’t parachutes provided to passengers on commercial airline flights, in case of emergencies?"

Wow, at first I thought it was going to be a video on why the plane itself doesn't have a huge parachute for landings, so I was really off on this one.

Maybe in the future there will be whole aircraft parachutes on commercial aircraft.
