How to avoid G-LOC in a Centrifuge with the RAF and Rolls-Royce | STARRSHIP

We’ve seen Tom Scott pass out from high levels of g forces. Jen and Marcus from Rolls-Royce and the Royal Air Force show us how they stayed conscious in a centrifuge and avoided G-LOC. Subscribe here: www.youtube.co...

Poor tom!

[@embr4247]

I just realized that I have been doing a rudimentary version of the breathing maneuver when I have been riding high-g rollercoasters that switch directions rapidly.

Sitting in the chair in the middle spinning around seems like a dizzying job as well.

Fascinating to see how much more G the RAF can handle vs. civilians! How do I get your job #marcusramsden. Love it!!!

[@STARRSHIP]

Would you like a video on getting a job in the RAF as an engineer? 😀

[@vincejerreat2960]

STARRSHIP that would be amazeballs 😃

Nice Video, have me Brainstorming idea's about how to counter G-Force I wonder if muscle training will help and if so by how much ( or maybe having somthing connect to the head to delivery blood ) to help with the lack of blood within the brain ) but then that carrys risk in it self. anyways keep up with the video : Thumbs Up :

Thanks! Typically a g suit adds about 1 g of tolerance and muscle exercises can add up to half a g of tolerance. Tom was just unlucky to have a low tolerance!

@@Thelaretus it was an Idea that just sparked in my head, Its proply wont ever happen, but now days we can do some crazy stuff to our body

@@S1B1C1 I think they did research many years ago. The best way is to have a pilot laying horizontally while flying - but that's not exactly a very good way to control an aircraft 😆If I remember my Aviation Medicine training, people with a short neck do better. I'm not sure it's true but rumored the F-16 has a 30 degree reclined seat to increase G tolerance. (i.e. reduce the downward force).

Serious question.. would high blood pressure help or hinder you during high g's?

[@RadeticDaniel]

High g's put excessive blood pressure in some parts of your body, while lowering in others were blood is not able to reach as it should. So resisting it is more to do with keeping blood pressure about as uniform as you can, rather than higher or lower than the average person. As a final note, excessive internal pressure in blood vessels may result in ruptures and lead to severe health damaging consequences, such as lost of sight.
