Let's get real: Seat belts are to keep you from falling out of your seat during turbulence. The airframe is like an eggshell, in case of a crash it will buckle and crumble, the seat tracks will come unglued and the overhead bins will collapse. At most, you'll be found somewhere in the debris field with the seat still strapped to you.
