    I know most people here know it was 214g's experienced in the accident, but in case you are unaware of what G's really are, or what he experienced, 214gs means that he experienced gravity 214x that of his weight. If he were an average dude at say 150 pounds, that would mean he experienced roughly 32,100 pounds of force for a split second, which is why he is one of the luckiest people on earth. Nobody should survive that.

  • @geso101
    @geso101 2 роки тому +1

    According to basic physics calculations, the rotation alone cannot have generated 214g. This probably happened during his crash against the fence, and the extensive damage to the car is also supporting this theory.
    Here are some calculations:
    The fastest rotation in this video takes 8 frames (play it frame-by-frame). Given that the video has 30 frames per second, the time of this rotation is t = 8/30 = 0.27 seconds. So approximately one quarter of a second (it can be seen also during second 0.10 that the car does almost 4 rotations).
    The legs were the furthest point from the centre of rotation, which was his head/torso. Let’s assume a rotation radius of r = 1.5 meters (he is a bit taller than that, but his body was not completely straight).
    Circumference of leg rotation would be: c = 2 * π * r = 9.4 meters.
    Speed of leg rotation would be: v = c / t = 9.4 meters / 0.27 seconds = 35.25 m/s.
    Centripetal acceleration of legs would be: a = v² / r = 35.25² / 1.5 = 828 m/s² = 84g
    So the calculated centripetal acceleration is not trivial but it is not even close to the reported 214g. Of course there is also the deceleration in the forward direction during the spinning, but it took him a long time to stop so this is trivial.
    In conclusion, it seems to me that the 214g was not the result of the spinning, and it must have happened earlier.

    • @inno-v8-ion165
      @inno-v8-ion165 2 роки тому

      Clearly. it's the point of impact at the fence and safe to say the G-sensor was somewhere near the nose. The rotation would dial down the momentum A LOT! Even so, the Gs from the car spinning must've been tremendous too; it looked like the spin could've been sustaining 10+ Gs the second after impact

      Not mostly though. The fence would of absorbed most of the g's. The total g level might of been 213-4 g's but he probably only experienced about 10. Still a lot however.

      @@merudasu5688 That's not how it works. Sure, crashing into a fence instead of a concrete wall helps reduce the amount g's since the deceleration is slower. However, he experienced 214 g's despite the fence. There was one g-force sensor in his car and one in his helmet. The one in the car measured 214 g's and the one in his helmet measured 193 g's.
      He literally experienced these g-forces since his body had the same deceleration/acceleration as the sensors in his car/helmet. The peak of 214 g's was probably only for a split second, which is why he survived. But the fact remains that he experienced 200+ g's.

    Indycar monocoques are compliant with FIA safety regulations. The safety problem isn't the cars, ultimately you have to assume there is a great danger when cars are moving over 370kph and you reach a near sudden stop by hitting a wall that isn't going to move. The tracks are the problem, Senna's and Ratzenburger's death had more to do with the unsafe conditions at Imola than the cars being completely unsafe. So too is the problem with open wheel cars on ovals.

    That's a nasty crash that he is very lucky to have survived, but you don't survive a 214g impact. I'd guess (and this is just a guess) that number comes from an accelerometer mounted either at the extreme front or rear of the car, and that being located closer to the center of mass greatly reduced the force he experienced.

    • @russotusso1695
      @russotusso1695 4 роки тому

      Nope, G-Forces are measured directly from driver, meaning he did experience those 214gs, but probably for like fraction of a second.

    • @jaykay4137
      @jaykay4137 4 роки тому

      @@russotusso1695 A while back I found a reference that confirmed it was taken from his crash violence recording system, so I looked deeper into human impulse loading limits. The highest survival limit I found was 175~200g, and the same source listed the limit of the human skull (specifically) at 250g. Surviving 214g isn't as impossible as I originally thought, but it's out there. Maybe one day if I can be damned I'll go through the video frame-by-frame and crunch the numbers for myself, but that's not going to be today.

    According to the challenger disatster final report, the shuttle sustained over 200g's of force on impact to the ocean. using this, kenny brack could've survived the fall and crash of the challenger as this crash was 213g's. insane. (excluding the.... fireball)

    Modern F1 cars are tough and very safe, besides, they are not doing nearly 400 kmh on closed circuits.
    But back in the old days, a lot of F1 drivers died during races and other sessions. We still remember Senna and Ratzenberger.

    Crazy accident, but I've been thinking, is 214g From the Spin only? Watching the crash at the time he was racing, he was experiencing possibly 4-5g, then the deceleration to 0g then negative G, the the acceleration back up to 214g...so how much in total did he experience positive to negative??? Must be unreal numbers.
