In the video below, which is a closeup of the accident witnessed on the previous page, the tremendous forces that are acting on the spine, even at low impacts, are significant and readily noticeable. An 8 mph car collision, such as pictured below, produces two times the force of gravity, or a 2-G acceleration of the car, and a 5-G acceleration of the head. And accidents at greater speeds result in even more G force on the car and body. Click here for the slide or here for the slide
