RE: The Science in Car Crashes

That was a very interesting read @greenrun. Very well explained, I enjoyed your examples.

Rollercoasters can go up to 6.3G. The human body runs a risk of going unconscious when subjected to G-force above 6G for more than a few seconds. This effect happens due to the blood flowing away from the brain.

Whoa, I never would have imagined there are rollercoasters that can go up to 6.3G. Scary! I will think twice next time.

Though, skilled professionals like the astronauts, fighter pilots, can withstand up to 9G and more, due to training-built tolerance inside the centrifuges.

That is impressive to say the least.

Have a good day!
