At this upper limit the sink rate of the canopy is approximately 10 m/s and the overload is equal to 2G's. For bank angles higher than 60 degrees the sink rate can achieve 20 m/s but the greater overload (High gravitational forces - G's) can cause eyesight and equilibrium problems, and cause some people to 'black out' (faint), which consequently can make the manoeu-...
