    No, the wings would be fine. A 737 carries up to 48,000 lbs of fuel in the wings. Plus, when it’s in the air, the wings are supporting and transferring all of the lift holding the plane up and all of the thrust moving the plane forward. Having a couple dozen people on the wings isn’t going to make them fail.
