Silly man. Did you see Jack Olsen's video of his crash at Laguna Seca? He hit the tires but stopped pretty suddenly. The windshield flew out and he barely hit the steering wheel with his helmet. He was belted in with a 5 pt. harness with no tensioners, and presumably tight.
Humans flex and stretch a lot. I'm not telling you anything new, island man. I'm sure you've seen the video's of the live human crash dummy. W/o the bag, you're gonna smash your face in a full frontal crash and probably also if you get nailed from behind hard enough.
I think the most lethal auto crash is either when there are no belts, a big side impact and third on the list, no bags. I have no statistical info.
