For a sustained time the most a man can stay conscious is about 6-8, anything more would cause black out. the highest G force survived by any one was 179 G after crashing a car at 110mph which decelerated to 0 in 50cm

I believe the average human can withstand 8 g forces before blacking out, and i don't think people would want to go much beyond that.

is that positive or negative?

^I'm not the same person as above, but I'd like to say that people have withstood over 150g's over a couple of seconds however, any longer and that persons head would have blown up.

Depends on how the body is orientated and how long the exposure is. Also depends on whether youre talking about survival only, or if you want the human to be able to do something. 9 G or thereabouts is pretty much the limit for remaining somewhat functional for a few seconds. But for sheer survival the limit is far higher, and frequently experienced by car crash victims for instance.

108 gs is the highest g force any human has withstood. ( its amazing! if i weighed 1 pound, in 108 gs i would weigh 108 pounds. )
