The video discusses the effects of high-speed air pressure on pilots, particularly when ejecting at speeds of 300 miles per hour or more. It highlights ongoing tests, including wind tunnel experiments conducted by the American Navy, to ensure safety and understand reactions. A slow-motion study shows facial reactions under these conditions, concluding that there is no danger or pain up to 350 miles per hour.
