No. They tried Amy Winehouse, but she sparked up the solid rocket fuel booster and smoked the lot while waiting to do her run:)

nice camera that records all 16km :S ^^

bullshit

Philipc1690, Genius. Quick, run to Stanford, they have been searching for answers. They can really use an intellect like yours.

Not really. Once he hit the water, he stopped so fast he had a 'red-out' Where all the blood in his eyes, and some in his face rushed to the surface. Hed be blind for a couple days, and his eyes would look pure red.

could they not put a really skinny person on it then ???

lol that was back in the old days when they would put a person in it. hint... before they reached mach 9. today's cart that runs on it (reaching mach 9) cannot be ridden by anyone because the g-force would kill you. it would be equivalent to multiplying your body weight by 150.

Colonel John Paul Stapp

i bet thats a damn awesome feeling

wheres the fun in that?

alot over 20

Can't they just send it without a human ? XD

look up john stapp on wikipedia a human can withstand 45gs in the forward position with proper harness

Runs with humans = never going more than the speed of sound Runs without humans = upto mach 9.74 This video doesnt exactly make that clear.

No.

ericcox2 , can u tell me how much geforce a common human being survive??

That guys balls were in his ankles!

nice find, its important to note that the land speed record on rails is Mach 8.47 and not 9.74....

I want that in the next disney land park :D

He wouldn't be pulling any g's at the maximum speed because there would be zero acceleration at that point.

go to google and type in rocket sled land speed record and click on the third thing that comes up

Rocket sleds are great - we need more videos!

You jerks are messing up so many different things. No person ever went nearly that fast on earth, or on a rocket sled. But unmanned sleds did go this fast. The G-force experiments were all below the speed of sound, and hut on the order of 80Gs.

if he were going 10330 kmh he would pull 155 g's or he would weigh 30000 pounds

That's Col. John Stapp (sp?) Yeah he was "jacked up" - he went through 40 Gs of acceleration and was temporarily blinded, but he lived and completely recovered. After this test, the army halted human testing of acceleration effects.
