If you google turtle anatomy then you get the insides of a turtle, kinda intesting. Tort's normally die when flipped from the belly being exposed to heat, they can take as much on their belly as on their backs. How long I'm not sure it takes and hope to never find out. Tort's by the way have alot harder time flipping bck as they are more round on top then water and wood turtles.
How fast they move I have no clue but will ask around, I do know if my female sulcata know you have food then they move pretty darn fast! And water turtles are faster on land then tortoises.
