I am of the opinion, there is a 90% chance of walking away from an EFTO by landing ahead and under CONTROLLED flight!! Stall it, even from say 20 feet and you're probably finished.
Assuming you took off into wind, your ground speed will be relatively low. Try and turn back, and if you stall the a/c in a turn, the g/s will be high, coming to downwind, not to mention the loss of control, with a high vertical speed. That's what kills.
Forget about the aircraft as it can be replaced.
