So there's this scene in Interstellar where their ship explodes and it makes the ship spin. The girl doesn't move her head against the spin and she passes out while the experienced guy held his head the opposite of the spin and didn't pass out. Why's that? Is it something to do with blood rushing out of the head because of the spinning?
