Remember Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid? (I think most of us are
old enough to have seen it as a first run)
"I can't swim"
"Don't worry kid, the fall will probably kill you"
If you jump from deck 10, that's a fall of about 100-120 feet into
something with the same approximate compressibility as concrete. If
she didn't die from impact, she was probably unconcious and drowned. |
