In the aerobatic movie at http://www.fulldeflection.com , Svetlana
Kapanina seems to hardly notice the g-forces.

I guess sometimes its +9 and -4 or so, but I can only see her hair go
up and down.


I have watched this film many times (ahh Svetlana !).


Maybe its due to the big seat belts.

If you watch

and some of the other flyers you'll see serious Gs being pulled on
their faces. I would not want to see her face distorted, though. Some
people have it all -- brains, beauty, and competence.

Imagine what it does to other parts of the body.
