Ok in a little bit we will know the actual G Force number. It is amazing the forces the human body can survive.

There was a discussion of the 10 second limit to get out of the car with the Halo. Guess they did not think about a driver who was either knocked out or stunned for a moment. The impact was such a major impact for the brain that the driver was at lease stunned and then he had to deal with the fire. GREAT that he got out so quickly. GREAT for the Halo!

Considering Grosjean's 746kg car hit the barriers at 221km/h, with an estimated force of more than 50G, there was an awful lot of energy to get rid of.
