Nah, they're quite safe. The acceleration
may leave you unconscious, but that's not too big a deal.
Different types of seats have different methods, too- some have canopy breakers to punch through the canopy, others have jettisonable canopies, and still others rely on an explosion to blast a hole in the canopy before the seat goes through. It's all designed to protect the occupant.
