That viral airplane seatbelt “hack” looked clever — tuck your knees to your chest and fasten the belt around your ankles to sleep — but it’s actually dangerous and illegal. In this video we unpack that TikTok trick, show why misusing a seatbelt can cause brutal injuries, blood-clot risks, and even put other passengers in danger. We’ll hear from safety experts, show real-world demos, explain the federal penalties (yes — fines can reach into the tens of thousands), and give safe, legal alternatives so you can actually sleep on a plane without risking your health or your wallet. Watch before you try any “lifehack” at 30,000 feet. Credit:
