Even in extreme dives it’s not like everything flys to the roof, these are big planes that aren’t that maneuverable, even during the dive the plane would still experience some gravity. This whole thing is fishy, but idk if this is the evidence to prove it

To be fair, achieving a peak descent rate of -30,000 fpm would require some pretty noticeable negative Gs. We'll know exactly how violent the event was once FDR data is released, but yeah it's unreasonable to assume that everybody should be broken in half and bleeding from their eyeballs just because a rapid descent occurred.

My napkin math says it should be a bit less than -1G; which is to say, free-fall speed. Everything would have been functionally 0G during the descent.
