people have gone much much faster then 170mph and the human body can live through over 10G's its uncomfortable to say the least but you could do it. plus 15000 ft is less then 3 miles! and going 60mph it only takes 3 minutes to get there so if you go 180 mph it takes you 1 minute! the trick would be to have the math figured out so you go up at some constant acceleration that adds up and cost the end of the trip so at end of the upperwards motion you jump out going maybe 0-15mph which is as fast as you go rideing a bike "most the time" and is hardly dangerous since your jumping off into the air with a partachute on....
Yeah MicroSoft is so fast and easy, accept when it gives you the blue screen of death, forceing you to do a hard reboot ½ the time and lose all the data that you have been working on! I really liked Netscape when it was 4.0 it was actually stable! Internet explorer just blew up over and over. Windows is such a falty program its pathetic, they are finaly getting it more stable on what there 7 edition??? but even that had a major bug! woohoo "time for me to stop ranting"
