They requested seat belt extension straps- the stewardess refused, saying they weren't heavy enough to need them.

If they are able to learn flying airliners in our own flight schools, why shouldn't they be able to get seat belt extension (to use as weapons) from our own flight crews?

Just asking...

Seatbelt extentions can be used to strangle someone. We know how strong they are, they are designed to hold our whole body in our seat in case of emergency!
Also the two ends of the belt are metal and can hurt badly if you are hit in the face, head, etc.
How do I know this, I am a Flight Attendant!!
