Answer

7g means experiencing 7 times Earth's normal gravitational force, eual to an acceleration of 68.6 m/s² (7 × 9.8). A person weighing 70 kg would feel like they weigh 490 kg under 7g forces. Fighter pilots commonly experience this during aggressive maneuvers. Without a G-suit and proper techniue, most people would lose consciousness within seconds at 7g due to blood draining from the brain.
