Seeing this video reminded me of the fighter jet video thread. Good thing we can't pull these kind of G forces in our Z's. The dude just smacking away on his gum just cracks me up.

I have been told that when the air force wants to have a mechanic sign up again, they give them a ride in a fighter jet hoping to get them to sign up for another 4 years....

 

I get those kind of G's on acceleration after installing my pop-charger. You should have seen it, she passed out face down on my lap.

 

I thought that dude was going to choke on his gum. Nice vid.

 

Funny....he's not chewing on gum. It's a method of preventing blackout while experiencing G forces. It's called the L-1 manuever and you tense your muscles and exhale against your throat when it's closed. Works when done properly.
