Would flights be safer if they gave parachutes to everyone?

Hardly. Imagine to exit a burning or free falling plane at around 800 km/h. How likely is it for people to collide with the plane, how likely is it they will be able to strap it on at all? And how long does it take to push out 200 or so travellers?
