Can the human body actually maintain any consistency under those conditions? One can only imagine the G force at work, it seems to me that your eyeballs might just come out the back of your head, no?

A commercial flight could be designed with a very reasonable acceleration. Accelerating at 1g, for example, will get you to 5000 mph in just about 4 minutes.
Astronauts feel about 3-4g's during a normal rocket launch.
