The Soyuz launch system is old but is the most reliable in the world. It's been launching since 1967. The very first one failed but that's it.
It's been fifty years since a launch failure. I wouldn't hesitate to climb in.
Might want to check your facts on that one. The guy above you just referenced a rocket exploding on the pad in 1983.

Nope. I referenced that one myself when I noted that it's happened once before but not in flight.
I'll be more clear - there has been one failure that involved loss of life, and that was back in 1967.
