your comparing two completely different things with eachother. Newton G's on impact (force) isn't the same as graviton force on the body when falling. I do understand the law of Newton, I never stated that the leg falls a second, did I? Muscle stays constant in strength if the G's go up, and it's true that it's possible that most people can lift 4x their weight with the legs but that doesn't mean they can do it at constant rates.įurther more, you'll might get an endless need for muscle since you'll need more power in the beginning to adapt, but when you gained power you'll need more again because you gained weight due to muscle. Well he asked for long term tolerance so I answered. Ask any of the large number of people with bad backs, arthritis etc. There's simply no evidence concerning what levels people could put up with for any length of time, but the unfortunate answer might be rather less than 1 G. Lumberjacks and racing cyclists are the ones usually cited. There are people who regularly consume roughly 4 times the "normal" calorie intake. I think I can manage 10 G falling down stairs. If you drop a rock off a table and it accelerates (at 1G) for 1 metre then it lands on the carpet and is brought to a halt in 1 cm (that's 1/100 Metres) the mean acceleration it experiences as it stops is 100 G. Falling off a cliff probably never killed anyone. You have not understood Newton's laws properly.Įven then reaching 100 f/s doesn't do any harm. The idea that I could get my legs to 100 f/s without jumping off a cliff is silly. In order to accelerate my leg to 33 f/sec under normal gravity I would have to let it fall for 1 second, but in 1 second it would fall a long way- (very) roughly 15 feet. It figures that, using both legs, they can hold four times their own weight. I wasn't one of the well muscled blokes in the class either. That would have been about 4 times my weight. I could easily lift over 250Kg using the muscles of my legs and back. A long time ago when I was a teenager I did some weightlifting. Also, to walk they have to carry roughly twice their weight on one leg. To do that they need to hold their weight plus the other person's weight. (also most people can carry another using the "fireman's lift"). Most reasonably fit healthy men can carry their wives across the threshold of their new homes. The possible problem is that the skeleton won't stand the load, but that's another issue. Therefore, to a degree, adding muscle will always help. Muscles can generally support more than their own weight so adding muscle adds more than enough strength to hold it up. That being so, any claim for less than 75G is plainly not a maximum and so it's not what the OP asked for. OK, lets start with the fact that the OP asked for a maximum G force that can be survived and pointed out that there are recorded cases of people surviving 75G. I think the maximum is around 1,2 to 1,5G to be able to live in for humans for longer periods of time. these will eventually burn faster than you can consume since the labour will reach a point where it exceeds your energy consuming since we can't process fast enough at some point, and if you can, you'll just gain weight from the eating that burns even more calories. each feet you let go of something is equal to 3 feet on earth falling.Ĭalories. So your leg can be easely oblitherated at even 3G when trying to walk like on earth. on earth it's 32 feet/sec it falls and you'll have a normal weighted leg. Law of Newton, the gravitational acceleration, if you drop your leg at 3G without force holding it up you'll get a speed of about 100 feet/sec it falls, with it's tripled weight. Joint damage, 200 pounds can already stress your joints heavely. cause each G above 1G is another you on your back and getting more powerfull adds muscle adds again WEIGHT. Maximum weight you can handle, even WITH adapting. If you weigh 100 pounds you'll weigh at 2G 200 pounds, 3G 300 pounds. Your G-tolerance highly depends on your own weight, 2G is twice your own weight, 3G is 3 times your weight.
