A forceful forward-backward motion, as often happens in car crashes, causes the most "whip lash" injuries. Most of these can be treated, although symptoms may persist.

However, in some situations of forward-backward force, death or severe brain injury can result. As one example, Shaken Baby Syndrome forcefully flips a child's head down to the chest, then backwards, injuring the brain stem.
