The Astonaut Farmer had a much better setup (despite blowing up the first time), but then again, he had a muuuccchhh bigger budget :)

They say on their website that the rocket will produce less than 3 g's. This is well within the limits that a reasonably fit person can withstand without loss-of-consciousness (5 g's without g-suit). Boost is supposed to last about 60 seconds.

well you could take short 2 - 10 second g's on the jet that would cross 3 - 5g line...as many millitary or acrobat pilots do....but remember, we have a constant a few minutes long climb here.

But really, a busted hair dryer delays your launch by 6 months??? :roll: :lol:
The way I read the story, the hair dryer wasn't "busted", rather they removed power from it too soon and the LOX valve froze while they were fooling around with something else that delayed the launch.
