Remember this would not be the regular fight-pilot's 5G pushing you into the seat and pushing the blood to your legs. This would be 5G pulling your torso and head forward and pushing the blood into your head. Whole different deal obviously. I'm pretty clueless about the physical side of this but I imagine there is some serious damage done to the soft parts inside your skull very quickly.
