Greed Forces

It was interesting to read “Thrill Rides’ G-Forces Also Being Felt in Court” (May 27), about the brain and G-forces. However, I found it strange that it did not say that sports (such as boxing, hockey, football and even basketball) where intentional or accidental impacts create many times greater G-forces than those at roller coasters lead sometimes to sad consequences. Look, for instance, at Muhammad Ali, or other boxers. No doubt, human tolerance toward G-forces is limited, while greed is not.
