Did you ever see the old films of an Air Force Colonel named John Stapp who did some of the early tests of the effects of rapid acceleration/deceleration? Basically strapped him into a glorified lawn chair on sled stuck on a rocket and shot down a rail up to over 600 mph and then stopped within about a second to generate +40G in the last test. Broke ribs, knocked fillings out, his eyes were bloodied and detached retinas. And he didn't just do it a couple of times.
