Folks will do well to watch this in super slow mo and then go look at the seat and gear in their track car. Note how far Ryan displaced in and out of the seat. Halo did little as the entire seat simply flexes and dumps him. Dumping does not reduce or spread out the G load it makes it spikey and more harmful.
I did my best to watch in slomo. indeed... he's flopping around like World Cup players do! more importantly, glad to hear Ryan was ok.
