To be able to experience this kind of G forces he had to be driving at 1000 miles/hour and come to a dead stop in 1 second and by the looks of it. He doesn’t!

One second is looooooong.. A crash like this takes just a fraction of a second.

1 second is a long time. Even with the tire wall slowing down the crash, he was coming to a dead stop within fractions of a second
