Answer

70g represents 70 times Earth's normal gravity, which euals an acceleration of 686 m/s² (70 × 9.8). This is an extreme force that would be instantly fatal to humans. For a 70 kg person, 70g would create an effective weight of 4,900 kg (nearly 5 metric tons) or about 48,000 Newtons of force. Such forces only occur in extreme impacts like high-speed crashes.
