Off beat question but if anyone knows....

it's you guys!

I'm looking for old images of early G-force tests that they would perform on pilots and such. You know the ones where lips are pulled back and eyes are about to pop out of their sockets. If any of you have or know where I can find any of those freaky head shots I would appreciate it.

Thanks,
Motor

 

Try here: http://www.archive.org/details/prelinger

You'll also find early highway safety and even hot rodding films here. Search the whole site, but the Prelinger archive has a lot of cool stuff.

 

Thanks for the link Steve but I couldn't find what I was looking for.

I know someone in HAMB Land knows where to find it.

Motor,

You're looking for ejection tests. I can't find any pictures, even though I know exactly what you're talking about. Also the G-force tests that they showed (briefly) in The Right Stuff.

You might do some searches for ejections and the Mercury space program. Hope that helps.
