Experience the F-18

These are some great clips. This Blue Angel recognized the fact that this reporter was a gum smacking fool and decide to humble him a bit. Notice in clip two that the man's color completely changes when all of his blood pools in his feet. Good stuff.

I'd sure like to have a joyride like that, except I probably wouldn't do half as well as he did.

Rollercoasters often hit 5g's, but I suspect it is for a short period of time.

It's due to the lack of blood supply to the brain. That's why fighter pilots wear G suits which compress the legs and thighs to prevent blood from pooling in the lower extremities.

Just like any other cause of reduced blood flow to the brain, the lack of oxygenation can damage the brain, even causing death. But a few seconds of black-outs due to high G forces should not really harm you.

Did ya notice that the pilot would give a slight shove on the stick to make the fool's head kick forward? Wanted to make sure he didn't choke on that gum while he was out. Funny stuff. I think that took the cockiness right out of him.
