    Did some random math for how much force that Jeb experienced near the end of the video:
    We can assume that our acceleration is equal to our velocity due to the fact no deceleration should have occurred and that we went from 0m/s to the V(f). Along with that 1 kerbal is about 45kg. Multiplying them together gives us about 8.4452e10N of force.

    Reminds me of when my friend and I crashed a vessel into a planet so fast that it launched the kerbal out at 10.8 septillion meters per second. Idk what happened. He ended up outside the universe where it was completely black

    If you theoretically applied downforce via thrusters and two thrusters on the side to keep it straight you could technically achieve a much higher speed so the craft at 12:34 was stable since the thrusters in the middle were acting like a gyro therefore it did not spin out,some crafts use this technique in space such as nasas moon exploration vehicle and their EVA SAFER suits,sorry for the long comment

    There’s something I love about the fact that you essentially made the yeagh v2 stable enough it was able to fly in a stable enough way that it likely would have gotten to space. 🤣

    Land speed? Jeb broke the very concept of speed, we will now measure the speed of light as 1/6 the speed of Jeb

    he didnt just break the land speed record, he yeeted my man to the next solar system

    a real shout out to Jeb for becoming the fastest known thing in the entire universe coming in at 6 times the speed of light. went so fast he ignored physics and shot directly to the sun
