ice you get a green light and you take

1:17

off sprinting and you can't hear a

thing when I make contact with the sled

1:24

it feels like a place I've been my whole

1:26

life last 15 years I've made that same

1:29

jump onto the

1:33

sled you could feel immense pressure as

1:37

you're pulling five G's so my 8 lb head

1:40

now weighs 40

1:46

lb if you start to get stiff you start

1:49

to get scared it's not going to work the

1:52

2:13

backwards when I'm running backwards it

2:15

almost feels like I'm flying because

2:24

how far I need to go when you're going

2:26

backwards
