This is what happened during the failure of the space rocket engine. Watch it at 2:50 (that's an unique documentary footage):
The cosmonauts were ejected in the capsule and have survived.
As you may know, Russia did most of space launches in the human history (two times more than the USA) and lost only 4 cosmonauts in two accidents. In both cases the people have died during the landing: determination of the capsule and a failure of parachute system. No single cosmonaut has died during the rocket launch so far.
In contrast to Russia, the United States have no technologies to equip their rockets with life saving systems. Thus in case of failure the astronauts are doomed and they have no single hope to be saved...
Don't think that I'm trying to make fun of this tragedy or so. No way! I'm just showing you that the real US technologies and not the same as the ones shown in your countless movies. They are too overpriced far not the best ones in the world like Hollywood tries to show it... You were the 2nd in the space and only because Nazi genius like Von Braun have done all the job for you. Today Von Braun is dead and the Russian rocket technologies is the only way to send your astronauts to the outer space.
