His brain definitely would NOT experience the same g-forces as hitting concrete. You have less than an inch of deceleration space against a surface that hard, whereas getting caught by superman would probably give you at least twice as much space, if not way more, which would reduce your g-forces by more than half

But superman is flying pretty fast to catch Timmy, so Timmy would get hit from 2 sides.

Force is a vector so that's a VERY different g-force if it's in a new direction
