Studies show that collisions on the athletic field (football, rugby, soccer, etc) can cause 80 to 90 G forces and sometimes even more.
A simple foot plant can cause 60 Gs to the foot and ankle. The force radiating to the head can easily be 1/2 the foot plant so 30 plus G's.
The repetitive nature of running can cause quite a trauma to a sensitive brain.
