Does anyone know of a website or source of where I can find a list of various activities and what force is dealt to the body/head while doing it? Some examples I am looking for include car crash (whiplash), fighter pilots, and football players. Im looking to get as many examples as possible. Thanks@!!!

I did a quick search and found this, so you may already have it
Crash test stats- http://www.nhtsa.dot.gov/cars/testing/comply/
I didn't see anything helpful on pilots or football players
Hope it help.

Car crash
(Mass of car + mass of person) x's acceleration = mass of person x's decceleration
The person will feel the same force that would be exerted by the car.
Most will be simple physics problems.
