*S00perGIR stands up* *THUD*
I've never greyed or blacked out before. I've ridden Millennium Force, Power Tower, Scorpion @ BGT, too. This could be because I'm 14 and 4' 11". (No one makes fun of me for being short, though, which is probably because I'm so popular.)
I'm suprised no one black/greys out in Mantis's spaghetti bowl, because I can always feel blood rushing to my legs.

That are two seperate things actually. :) Feeling the blood in your legs isn't the same as blacking-out. A black-out is caused by sudden high G-forces. Feeling the blood in being sucked to your feet is caused because of long lasting G-forces in a stand-up or inverted contraption.
I personally had the "feet-thing" in Batman La Fuga, and very heavilly in Adrenalin Pur, a German fair booster. FYI: Adrenalin Pur has a maximum G-force of 6G.

the first helix on S:ROS at SFA does it to me EVERY single time....as does going backwards through the loop on Two Face. also, the second vert loop on Mindbender at SFOG caused a little black out....and while im mentioning SFOG, the Pretzel Loop on S:UF is pretty nuts too :)

The very brief shortage of blood to your brain is not injurious. If it was there would be a huge number of injuries just from people standing up to fast.
This is very true... This is not an injury, but actually a sudden illness known as, "syncope," or as many of us call it, fainting.
This sudden illness, can cause injury, if you happen to slap your head back, depends more on the type of restraint.
