There are No Seat Belts on the Cool Starship (when there are even seats), particularly not on The Bridge. Whenever the ship is hit by Energy Weapons, even if the Deflector Shields hold, everyone on board will be flung about by the Screen Shake. Either the designers assumed that Space Is an Ocean, or everyone has a standing battle station. Star Trek: The Motion Picture did a Lampshade Hanging on this, giving The Captain a chair whose arms folded down to function as a seat belt. Kirk wound up being tossed around anyway despite this. Star Trek III: The Search for Spock also had an impressive sequence of the bridge crew aboard the Excelsior buckling up in similar fashion before activating the transwarp drive — which instantly broke down. The lack of seat belts is part of No OSHA Compliance (as well as no common sense). |

None of the player ship bridges in Star Trek Online have seatbelts, and some of them (the Destiny bridges, for one) don't even have chairs. Fortunately they're just a cosmetic option. | |

In the 1960s Batman (1966) series, the Batmobile was initially played this trope straight. However, when the series was criticized for the Dynamic Duo not buckling up, the producers thought it could be a good joke to have the goody two-shoes doing so before driving. As it is, the joke backfired in a positive sense with the series being rapturously praised for setting such a good safety example. | |

Averted in Rocketship Voyager because humanity has no knowledge of Artificial Gravity or Inertial Dampening until they encounter aliens from outside the Solar System. Voyager only has "pseudo-gravity" when under acceleration, and so has recessed handholds in the bulkheads and deckplates, strung "null-gee cables" for traveling along passageways, and safety webbing on the chairs and beds. In the opening chapter, Captain Janeway gets injured when she releases her safety webbing (because it's pulling her tight against the acceleration couch, and she can't turn to speak to her Bridge crew) at the wrong moment. | |

Very definitely averted in Honor Harrington, where warships' duty station seats have full-up shock frames to hold the crew in place — which come in handy when you take a graser hit near the bridge. Not so much when you take one to the inertial compensator; everyone on the ship is instantly turned to "strawberry jam". | |

In 8-Bit Theater, Black Mage made a similar comment and carried out the same actions as Bender did in the Futurama episode "Roswell That Ends Well". However, this was his plan (that he would be thrown clear of the burning wreckage). Of course, the fact that the universe hates Black Mage meant that he was immediately crushed by a giant, and the others escaped thanks to quick thinking on the part of Red Mage (for further irony, this was at the cost of the very items that could have saved Black Mage from his predicament). | |

Cross Ange: The Para-mails lack seat belts, which, in flight mode, which is tantamount to a flying bike, is nothing if not lethal. Enforced in this case as the Normas who pilot them are treated as Cannon Fodder by the World of Mana. This is left unchanged for no apparent reason when the Norma escape Arzenal and restart Libertus. | |

Mazinger Z: Depending on the version, this trope was played straight or averted. In the original series Mazinger-Z's seat did not seem having seatbelts, but in Mazinkaiser and other reimaginations you could clearly see Kouji Kabuto strapping his seatbelt before launching. | |

Averted, then subverted in the Star Trek: Deep Space Nine novel ''War of the Prophets''. The future starship Phoenix has effective seat restraints, even though the Federation is falling apart and the universe is about to end. They're so effective, Captain Nog uses them to restrain the bridge crew so he can sell them and the ship out to the Romulans. (He has a very good reason.) | |

Mass Effect manages to avert this.... kinda. In the third game Traynor actually mentions being strapped into a safety harness during the action the Normandy sees over the quarian homeworld. This makes a particular amount of sense since it's mentioned in the backstory that it's standard practice for ships in combat to turn their a-grav off to reduce energy expenditure and heat build up. We never actually see such a safety harness anywhere on the ship, however. Traynor's line falls into the series' general pattern of holding true to space physics in the backstory, but not in the things we actually see. | |

Averted in Star Trek: The Motion Picture. The fact that seat belts were a subject of public discussion in the late 1970s and that the bridge crew kept thrashing around falling out of their seats in TOS probably helped. This bridge has chairs with armrests that fold down over the legs. They do look kind of awkward, though. Played straight for the handful of poor bridge officers who don't even get chairs◊, let alone restraints. In the novelization, Kirk is embarrassed to realise that he doesn't know how to deactivate the safety bar so he can get into his chair, until someone discreetly does it for him. | |

Halo: Combat Evolved: At the end of the first mission, Master Chief and Cortana get into an escape pod with a group of Marines and crewmembers. Cortana suggests that Master Chief strap in, but he merely braces himself and says "We'll be fine." Everyone else straps in, but MC and Cortana are the only survivors when the escape pod lands, because of his Powered Armor. One joke fan theory says that he bounced around and killed everyone else. | |

The tendency of Star Trek films and episodes to follow this trope is lampooned in a brief scene in Sev Trek: Pus In Boots, where the Picard-analogue fastens a safety belt shortly after ordering "brace for impact!" Shortly after impact, the ops and helm stations display the use of airbags...and a Red Shirt flies through the frame and crashes into something—likely the viewscreen. | |

Inconsistently done in the Gundam franchise, which can't seem to make up its mind if Mobile Suits have seat belts or not. Most notably averted in Victory Gundam, where all mobile suits have a fairly sizable, inflatable lap restraint that expands to cover the torso in an emergency. | |

Subverted in Larry Niven's later Known Space stories: No one uses or even needs seatbelts since every vehicle in the universe is comprehensively equipped with outrageously effective automatic safety, restraint and crash protection systems. Who needs a seatbelt when your driver's seat has a built-in force field? Actually makes sense given the high speeds of the vehicles in question. Even as an emergency backup, a seat belt is not going to save you if your supersonic flying car crashes and all the other mechanisms fail. |

Spoofed in Futurama: When the professor takes control of the Planet Express ship, Fry and Leela fasten themselves to their seats with about 30 seat belts, and Bender rivets himself to the wall. And, of course, the professor ends up "driving" at about two miles an hour. In "Roswell That Ends Well", everyone sits down and buckles their seatbelts in preparation for a crash landing except Bender, who smugly insists, "Those things kill more lives than they save." In accordance with the laws of Tempting Fate, Bender is the only one sent flying when the ship touches ground. |

The single-stage atomic rocket in Destination Moon also has acceleration couches with restraints that might make things rather uncomfortable on the return journey. You see according to exposition given during the movie, the rocket is supposed to hit the Earth's atmosphere nose-first, which means the acceleration couches would be facing the wrong direction, with only a single chest and knee strap to hold the astronauts in! | |

Averted in Cobra. The moment the obligatory car chase starts, Cobretti and Ingrid are shown buckling up in race car harness, one of the custom modifications to Cobretti's 1950 Mercury. It's just as well as the chase ends with Cobretti crashing the car. However during a short chase in the climatic battle, Cobretti is standing in the back of a pickup shooting at the bad guys, and goes flying off the back when the pickup crashes (though he's unharmed thanks to a Necessary Combat Roll). | |

Doctor Who "The Satan Pit" features seat belts in the rocket (they're even plot relevant...). Mind you, they're not the kind of seatbelts you'd usually find in a spaceship (this was a production oversight). The TARDIS did have "seatbelts" in one Colin Baker episode, but it's best not to mention them. (Trying to plausibly fit seatbelts in a control room with no seats was never going to work, really.) Despite the Ninth and Tenth Doctor's control room actually having a seat near the console (and foam crashpads wrapping the handrails), the Doctor rarely seems to ever use it and tends to cling onto the console for support whilst the TARDIS is in flight. In "The Waters of Mars" there were seatbelts on the realistic rocket which they plan to escape on. Also averted in the famous Episode 3 cliffhanger of "The Caves of Androzani". Because the Doctor is the only one wearing a seatbelt, he's able to flee the ship he just crashlanded faster than the bad guys who've been tossed about by the impact. |

One of the subtle element in Emergency! is the fact that none of the ground fire crews wear seat belts in their vehicles. In truth, seat belt usage in emergency vehicles would not be mandatory until the The '80s, which could be considered strange since Public Service Announcement campaigns about the need to buckle up really began to ramp up in ubiquity in The '70s. | |

There was a scene at the end of Star Trek: Nemesis, cut from the final version, where Picard enters the bridge to find some techies installing a new captain's chair. It includes an automatic seat belt of sorts; a pleased Picard notes that "it's about time!" | |

Spoofed in Sev Trek: Pus in Boots, an Australian 3D animated send-up of Star Trek: The Next Generation. After sitting down in his Captain's Chair, Captain Jetlag Pinchhard pulls across a seatbelt. Later when the Enterforaprize rams another ship airbags inflate from the consoles, but one of those ensigns who are always standing around at the back of the bridge goes flying through the air. | |
