It is a known phenomenon that some people react to negative G with a large and sustained PUSH on the stick to a crazy attitude (+forward trim if applicable), even if there are massive visual cues that it is excessive. For example, it has resulted in fatal glider accidents after a winch cable break (first action, adopt a normal gliding attitude = brief period of negative G), where the pilot has pushed, and continued to push extreme nose down, right into the runway clearly visible outside the canopy.
