GF, they went off the end at 43 knots. Full report here, and highly relevant to the discussion here - not that our wannabee microsoft driver expounding here would understand.

Transportation Safety Board of Canada - AVIATION REPORTS - 1995 - A95H0015

When comparing the energy levels of a reject compared to landing at max permissible weight need to remember the .5mv^2 formula. It's the v that's the killer.
