I was in the operators station of a test cell when a J33 did just that, I followed soon after it, tried to beat it out of the building.

That was really cool to watch. Aircraft sims can be made to effectively produce 3g's. Been in the B-2 sim a few times flippin the jet this way and that, even full loops. The 3G's is enough to give you the right sensations though in reality the aircraft is capable of far more. Especially in the fighter sims.
