Crash will send you flying between the seats, it looks like. The seats would need to be oriented differently.

Isn't that what seatbelts are for?

[megous]

Only partially. Ever tried bending forward with the seatbelt on in the plane? You can easily reach with your upper body to the seat in front.

In case of a crash, the seats will move forward and then spring back, if you have your body in between of the two seats in front of you while they do this, you can easily get crushed.

On planes, belts are to prevent you getting thrown in to the ceiling during turbulence. That's why you're supposed to keep them on at all times.

e.g. Billy Mays

Heart disease, possibly incurred from cocaine use, was his cause of death. The luggage hitting his head after the tire blowout was ultimately not the cause, though was initially reported that way.
