I didn't get any sleep last night so it might just be my wonky brain but isn't "at 140x the force of gravity" an incredibly weird and wrong way to say it? They're talking about G forces, which are specific to earth gravity, so its 140Gs. "140 times the force of gravity" means nothing, it's like saying "it's 100 times heavier than mass".
