It’s difficult to calculate the exact level of G-force that would kill a human, because the duration of exposure is such an important factor. There are isolated incidents of humans surviving abnormally high G-forces, most notably the Air Force officer John Stapp, who demonstrated a human can withstand 46.2 G’s. The experiment only went on a few seconds, but for an instant, his body had weighed over 7,700 pounds, according to NOVA.
oh wow... well, i the new TV series The Expanse they also say that long staying under high G-forces can kill human... so it seems like the duration is the main factor indeed
I hope @direwolf will answer :)
he did ^_^
Maybe I did exaggerate a little.
