Seat Belt Use on TV

Ah, but here's the one you all want to see (look for 0:45)

 

My missis says that I'm the only person to constantly complain about trivial continuity glitches. Would it be helpful of me to inform her she's wrong d'ya think?

 

I think happy wife == happy life, IOW know when to keep mouth closed!

 

No seat belt use in Harry Potter either! Definitely a FAA violation.

I believe that car was too old to be equipped with seat belts.
I do not think FAA rules apply outside US air space.

 

Then why do I see the shoulder belt hanging off the B pillar?

 

As @Prodigyplace said it falls under the jurisdiction of the British Civil Aviation Authority ( CAA ) but that model of Ford Anglia did not have factory fitted seat belts. Subsequent add-on on kits were made available when the law requires them, as on young Master Potter's version. The options list as it was is below:--

That is in Ontario, Canada, not the UK.

 

I agree!! My son and I played paintball at a wonderful place in Corona for about 3 years. It was great exercise (body and mind) and we met wonderful people. The thing I liked about this place is that they removed nuttballs that didn't follow the rules. They made you listen to the rules before going to the fields. The battles were stopped if someone's mask came off. It was awesome!! You could play under the complete safety of knowing all in the game were playing by the rules. So everytime I see it on TV, it is always all wrong!! Plus, if you dressed with the correct clothing, usually paintball stings were minimal. When people asked me if it hurts to be hit, I would tell them its like the first time one goes from flag football to contact...........the first hit takes you by surprise, but after that, you get used to it.

 

The first time I tried paintball the very first hit I took was in the side/back of the neck, just above the collar of my coat. It looked like I had a hickey for two weeks after that! The second time I played I got hit on the elbow, right on the bony part, when my arm was bent so the arm of my coat was tight against the joint and any padding value was minimized. I've managed to avoid playing a third time

 

You're interested in shooting folks and getting shot at, join the ****ING army!!

 

I see your grouch pill is working...

My sons like "killing" each other in video games. I prefer that to them doing it in real life.
Not much paintball available around here, but they have done that a couple of times too.

 

…ah, there is a big debate over on that side of The Pond at the moment re. fox-hunting, and I'm constantly reminded of a wonderful quote by the late (but great) Sir Roger Moore:
"Sport" Hunting is a sickness, a perversion, and a danger, and should be recognized as such. People, who get their 'amusement' from hunting and killing defenseless animals can only be suffering from a mental disorder. In a world with boundless opportunities for amusement, it is detestable that anyone would get thrills from killing others who ask nothing from life but the chance to remain alive! - Sir Roger Moore
…and I would say to those people who love guns, and technology, fine, if you like playing with guns and stuff, join the Army, kill lots of interesting people (who are shooting back at you!) Leave the poor animals alone! That's it! 　 　

 

Some of my neighbours hunt deer for the meat (venison).

…but isn't that "survival" hunting? The Sir Roger Moore quote specifically refers to "sport" hunting! - Wil Davis (who has been a vegetarian for the past fifty-five years) …and most of my omnivorous friends purchase their meat & veggies from the local stores/farm-stands…
