  • @TheJuggs99 Oh and also their suits are pressurized.

  • @TheJuggs99 I would guess not because the shuttle is pressurized so they stay at a constant pressure no matter the altitude.

  • do your ears pop?

  • John Stapp survived 46g on the rocket sled tests. Fighter Pilots can experience 9-12g. The mission space ride in Disney pulls 2.4

  • If I'm not wrong, the STS put a max G-force on the astronaut of 3g at lift off... Compared to the 6/7Gs that the astronaut on the Apollo mission, this is a joke.

    WHen you're riding a car or a commercial aircraft goes through turbolence, it could happen that you experience 2g, sot it's not "that hard"... :)

  • There are stock cars that do 0-60 in 3.6... I think it would be a serious problem if the driver couldn't move her arms at such acceleration...

  • @mai2k3 46 seconds to supersonic is very fast acceleration its 3.6seconds to 60mph of continious acceleration. then after the they reach MaxQ they accelerate to 25000mph so its very fast

  • @Newbpwng Well its not really accelerating that fast so why not?

  • man im suprised they can move their hands so eazily

  • Nice! Cool! Wow! And more "!"s"
