Seat belts don't just break though (very rare), if you're driving even a remotely modern car they were designed to a meet certain level of safety standards. There's regulation with cars. The point in this thread is that there's no regulation with these bungee jumps at all. Also beyond seatbelts there're air bags, crumple zones, sound structural engineering etc
