Could You Survive TOP GUN MAVERICK?

Guest Starring

Cocky Science Aviator Jake Roper (that’s me!) feels the NEED FOR SPEED as he struggles to overcome his arrogance and work as a team to take down the enemy while also flying head on into the deceptively complex concepts behind the physics of flight. Jake will be pushed to the limit while investigating what happens to the human body when subjected to extreme G-forces, intense acrobatic maneuvers, and breaking the sound barrier…without an airplane?

The “or is it” from Michael was such a breath of fresh air.

[ReBufff]

“Could you be a little more sweaty” the best Top Gun tagline lol

[vaultsurvivors]

THE reason this is such a hit is that it is essentially just MythBusters for a new audience, and it is EXACTLY what youtube needed

[desertdweller]

commandef Michael Stevenson seems like a legit movie captain 😂

[jessecabaniss]

The experiment with Stapp that caused all that damage was a deceleration test. Rockets fired to slow him down super fast and that's what caused all that damage. He recovered and was fine, though, proving that the human body was tougher than we thought. Dude was a legend.

At 3:46 it would be fun if the Vsauce theme would actually play for a moment

[FoxBoi]

14:53 i have to criticize the part about breaking the sound barrier with no jet around. the injuries of that john stapp guy from the 60s were caused by the deceleration forces of 46, 2g. the speed itself is not dangerous, as felix baumgartner demonstrated in 2012 when he made a base jump from almost 39 km altitude and broke the sound barrier during his fall. the only things that can be dangerous during such speeds is debris (dust or insects) hitting you

That's Michael from Vsauce
Or is he?
Michael: *says "that's simple. Or is it?"*
Oh yeah! That's my boi Michael!

[sodiumtetraborate]

Pilot: here are more G's

Jake: *m o n k e*
