Yes. I would say even more so than cars. Even at its slowest a plane is traveling at 3x the speed of a car or 9x the kinetic energy. Then you have the problem of a compounding failure. If even one passenger gets lose the seat in front has to do 2x the work. A plane with 30-70 rows can have a domino effect if the bolts don't hold. Also cars don't instantly stop. Most of the energy is dissipated by shedding the engine under the body and crumple zones. They have a dramatically shorter runway than planes.
