'sThe sensations experienced in looping
the loop are similar in many ways TO
those OF hanging. This is caused by the
weight of the head making a twist of
the neck the moment the rider strikes
the upward incline. This is extremely
dangerous, as it is apt to injure the fine
nervous mass governing respiration.
This mass is part of the spinal cord and
is in the medulla oblongata, which is
continuation of the brain.
Should a person continue to perform
an act of this kind for any great length
of time the pressure of the brain would,
in my opinion, cause either paralysis,
or, worse still, insanity.

The generation of today whose idea
