Compression blackout

Compression blackout was a type of unconsciousness experienced when a starfighter pilot was unable to eject a crashed ship. The combined effects of the crash and the following contained air compression was enough to cause the pilot to passout. Similar to a concussion, the compression blackout was rarely fatal. Though, if no assisstance is rendered, a pilot could die within their ship whn it exploded.
