Survivor bias. My uncle survived because he was thrown clear!! Dead men tell no tales, etc.
Everyone has a story about a guy who got flung clear. I've never met anyone who has actually been flung clear. I do have a friend who got trapped in a car after it flipped when her hand was pinned by a broken seat. But the seat belt saved her life.
Even more basic - I’ll bet none of those people had been in an accident serious enough to eject them in the first place. Who needs a seatbelt when you can just hold on?
