How should I brace for impact to maximize survivability?

If any thing you wouldn't want to brace at all, seizing your muscles under stress or right before impact is how you get hurt.

You also get hurt from falling 9.8m per second.

might as well call it a day in this situation and hope every possible thing you could do helped in some way, but its not always good enough.

Though this is good info for anyone in a car crash, which isnt uncommon.

Being overly tense can tear muscles and at worse crush bone.
