oh, and there were several accidents on that 6.7 g schwarzkopf coaster, including at least one brain hemmorage. it also had a derailment but that wasnt from the g forces.

Do you have any links to back up these claims?
I think some of you are confusing high Gs (above 6) with intensity. Some of the most intense coasters around only top out at 4 g. People are reported to black out on SFMM's Goliath because of it's helix that holds 3-4 g for an extended period of time. I personally get the same effect when riding Batman the ride on a hot summer day. I've never blacked out, but have come pretty close to it. Last year, I nearly blacked out on this coaster, which tops out at 4 g: http://www.rcdb.com/installationgallery ... ?Picture=3
