When the crew goes into free fall off of a cliff in the USS Franklin, they are shown to be restrained from falling forward by their seat restraints. However, this would occur only if the ship were decelerating. In fact, as both the ship and its occupants are in free fall, they are accelerating at the same speed and the crew should be experiencing what could be called weightlessness. Of course, drag due to the atmosphere could create a differential in acceleration between the ship and the crew, but not to the dramatic extent shown.
