Just for ****s and giggles to get a reaction out of my 87 y/o Mom, I went around a bend much, much faster than what I do normally. So fast that the G-force slammed her shoulder against her passenger door. So fast that even I was beginning to doubt the wisdom of what I was doing.
At that moment, a normal person would be yell a protest or, at least, bracing themselves. But my 87y/o Mom, who moves at the speed of a little old lady, calmly sat through the turn like she was part of the astronaut training program and going for her daily NASA centrifuge ride.
After we came out of the turn and the car was back to "level flight", without looking at me, she calmly said, "You shouldn't go so fast."
