Suppose the value of G is increased ten fold, what do you think will happen due to force of gravity?

Answer:
Explanation:
To completely crush a human body? 10G?
First, we need to know the yield strength of human bone: Wolfram estimates 114 Megapascals.114 MPa gives us 16534.3 psi Roughly speaking, human bone is about five times stronger than steel when the two are compared by weight.
So to crash every bone in our body, we would need to apply way more than 10Ghell, aerobatic aircraft pilots and astronauts are subject to more than 10G pretty casually. NASA have been experimenting with High-G training and with centrifuge machines that apply up to 20G of force to their trainees:
“Early experiments showed that untrained humans were able to tolerate 17 g eyeballs-in (compared to 12 g eyeballs-out) for several minutes without loss of consciousness or apparent long-term harm”.
